Hi All, In late January I shall be completing on the sale of my home in Spain where I have lived for many years.In the faraway past,I have lived in Ayrshire,Renfrewshire & Edinburgh.I am English by birth but was married to a Scot & our daughter was born in Scotland,her daughter & young family live in Invernessire.Sadly my daughter died & I have no one who would really want to inherit a foreign property after I go Heavenways.Brexit has become a constant nightmare also for folks like myself,retired & single now & with no family still living in Spain.It seems a sensible decision to return to UK but I prefer to live out my days in Scotland rather than anywhere else in UK.My granddaughter suggested I move near to her but I am very independent & donĀ“t expect her to think she needs to look after me.So I am considering a move to Dunoon .My only holiday was taken there some 45 years ago or more with my spouse so I am very much in need of info.regarding shops,and areas etc etc.I shall be seeking a small property to buy but initially I need to establish myself in a rental in the town where I can start searching.Any ideas would be so helpful.

Hi sorry to hear about the loss of your daughter. So Dunoon has 2 supermarkets, you can get what you need but sometimes its good to go over the water to Greenock, Greenock has lots of bigger shops and more choice, but Dunoon is great and very close knit. Travelling to Glasgow you can either drive, get the car ferry, or passenger ferry which has great train links to Glasgow
