Redhurst is situated in a popular area of town close to Dunoon town centre. It was the first property to be built in Royal Crescent and looks onto Victoria Square and St John-s church which is an `A` listed Gothic church. In Dunoon there are both the Argyll Ferries and Western Ferry terminals from where there are frequent passenger and vehicular sailings across to Gourock. From here the road and public transport links make it possible to commute on a daily basis to Glasgow and the central belt. Holidaymakers to Cowal experience the feeling of apparent mainland detachment created by the pleasant short ferry crossing. It is possible to drive to Glasgow via Loch Lomond which takes a little longer but is via some of the most famous and breath-taking countryside in western Scotland. Dunoon is also the gateway to the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. The area has some of the most dramatic and picturesque scenery in the west of Scotland which includes Benmore Botanical Gardens.
