Community website for the Rosneath Peninsula and Garelochhead
Rosneath Peninsula - known locally as ‘the Green Isle’ - is quiet, peaceful and very relaxing. Its name derives from the Gaelic ‘Rosneimhidh’, meaning a sanctuary - most appropriate as the visitor escapes from the hustle and bustle of modern life.
Garelochhead (Ceann a' Gheàrrloch in Gaelic) is the first town reached as you approach the Peninsula via the A814 from Helensburgh and provides the gateway to the Peninsula.
On ‘the Peninsula’ the villages of Clynder, Rosneath, Kilcreggan, Cove and Coulport are secluded little communities, amidst natural beauty with a character all of their own. Portincaple nestles on the shore at the northern end of the peninsula.
