The studio is situated one street back from the Main Street and if coming on the bus ,the best stop to get off is at mount Stuart street .The entrance is across the road from the smallest cathedral in britain ! there is no gas in Millport so it's electric heating in the studio . And hopefully the sun will shine! From april 2018 there will be a meter operated £1 coin machine for the electricity . Tourist License / Licencia de turismo N °: 123456More

About the neighbourhood
Lovely island popular with cyclists(cycle hire is available on the island) and wildlife enthusiasts. Millport has everything for a short break or longer with the handiness of largs a short ferry trip away . Some lovely beaches and child safe play areas . If you fancy a wee day in largs , it's only 15 mins away and you can enjoy more shopping inc Morrisons and nardinis (famous for its ice cream)and tintos tapas bar as well as 2 indian restaurants and a variety of takeaways and pubs with entertainment.There is a nice new large Wetherspoon type bar called the paddle steamer just at the ferry port . Lots of good eating places and asmusements and play areas for children
Getting around
The Millport bus meets the ferry from largs which is every half hour , then it's a 5 min bus trip round to the small town of Millport . Most people go for cycling , walking , and golfing and of course some world famous annual events like the country and western weekend! And other popular events .
