Directions

Continue following signs for Greenock and Gourock on the A770 for around 8 miles until you arrive at the Western Ferries terminal at McInroy’s Point. Board the ferry to Hunters Quay, then turn left onto the A815 and head south towards Dunoon.
Drive through Dunoon and continue in the direction of Innellan and Toward for about half a mile. As the road briefly veers away from the coast and returns, you'll pass a row of traditional stone houses. Just beyond them, you’ll see the entrance to Laudervale.
