Strone (Scottish Gaelic: An t-Sròn) is a village on the Cowal Peninsula, in Argyll and Bute in the Scottish Highlands at the point where the north shore of the Holy Loch becomes the west shore of the Firth of Clyde.

[1] The name comes from the Scottish Gaelic for nose,[2] and applies to the hill above the village as well as to Strone Point.

It has a (now disused) pier (built in 1847) and was a regular stop for the Clyde steamer services.

[3] Until within less than twenty years there was no such thing as a human habitation upon this commanding and picturesque promontory, with the exception of a few straggling huts and cottages.

The inhabitants now look upon an "old settlement," the entire promontory being girdled round about by villas of great architectural beauty.A high road on the side of the hill serves additional houses including Dunselma, a Scottish baronial style house above the point.
