Location
The subjects are located on the Isle of Bute, a picturesque island in the Firth of Clyde off the west coast of Scotland that is renowned for its stunning landscapes, historic sites, and charming villages. Bute benefits from an established harbour at its principal town, Rothesay, and the Caledonian MacBrayne ferry service that links the island with the mainland via Wemyss Bay where a train line and road links afford access to Glasgow. Given these transport links, the island is easily accessible and therefore a popular tourist destination for day or longer trips. In addition to its natural beauty, the island is home to several cultural events and festivals throughout the year, including the Bute Highland Games and the Bute Jazz Festival.
