Neighborhood highlights

Rhu village is a 10 min walk from Aros. There is a pub, Hotel & village shop. Cafe Rhu at the Marina offers excellent home cooking and baking. The nearest town is Helensburgh which would be a 45 min walk or 5 mins in the car. There are 2 supermarkets in the town and Morrisons is on the outskirts of Helensburgh. There are lots of nice individual shops in the town. The walk along the promenade is a must for visitors and once in the town there is an abundance of good coffee shops and restaurants. The world famous Hill House designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh is at the top of Helensburgh and definitely worth a visit. Being so near to open countryside there are lots of lovely walks and climbs in the area.

Lived in the Helensburgh and Rhu area for 45 years but have now moved south to be nearer our daughters. Aros Rhu was our home, one which we have loved so much. Now it is a holiday home for others to love too!
