TRADING POSITION AND POTENTIAL
Port Bannatyne is situated on the busiest Scottish sailing route between the marinas of the Clyde and the marinas of western coast of Scotland. Many of the western Scottish marinas were built in recent years and western Scottish sailing is constantly expending.

The 105 berth Port Bannatyne Marina is popular with visitors because of its sheltered position and the beauty and tranquillity of Kames Bay. It is currently expanding to take bigger boats.

The Port Royal Hotel is situated on a main road from Colintraive-Rhubodach ferry and is only 2 miles away from another ferry which connects the main town on the Isle of Bute Rothesay with Wemyss Bay on the mainland.

The hotel has been owned by the same family in the last 20 years and was run for several hours in the evening during summer months as a destination ethnic restaurant with two letting rooms. There are unlimited possibilities to use the full capacities of the restaurant/function room and expand the business further as a yachting destination, holiday let etc. Cafes and pubs of Port Banantyne, which have lovely and vibrant atmosphere, are popular with islanders and opening hours can be extended throughout winter months.

ISLE OF BUTE
Isle of Bute is the most accessible and possibly the most attractive Victorian seaside resort. It has some examples of astounding Victorian architecture. Most of the properties are stone villas purposely built as holiday homes for merchants of Glasgow.

Recently, the Isle of Bute has received multimillion funding towards the regeneration. The Victorian centre in the major town, Rothesay, is currently being refurbished. The Pavilion, the Art Deco building and venue for cultural events will be completely refurbished by 2021. Historic Victorian Wemyss Bay railway station and the gateway to the Isle of Bute was refurbished in 2015. Improvements were made to Wemyss Bay harbour.
The village of Port Bannatyne is situated 2 miles north from Rothesay along the south shore of Kames Bay. The village consists of stone buildings situated along the promenade. The promenade extends from Port Bannatyne to the end of Kames Bay in one direction and from Port Bannatyne to Rothesay and beyond (for about 10 miles) in the opposite direction.

In addition to the 105 berth Marina there is 13 hole Golf course and Medieval western and eastern Kames Castles on the shores of Kames Bay.
