The living room has a stunning view and the flat is absolutely silent.
It is very tidy and well-kept (especially compared to some other flats we've rented in the UK in the same price category).
I 100% recommend it and would be keen to stay there again ourselves

Terry

Right from the start this is a wonderful place to stay - beautiful, peaceful location and a lovely old building. The welcome from the girl manning reception/ serving dinner was truly exceptional as was all of the service we had there. We had a lovely, comfortable room with a great shower. The food was delicious and the dining room is lovely with wonderful views. Can't recommend this place enough. There was even home made shortbread in the room. So nice!

Truly excellent place to visit especially for history buffs, with midget submarines in WW2, to Scotlands first flight by a blacksmith no less, to all the hidden gems of coastline, views. Mount Steuart would take several days to fully explore but a stunning georgian house. With some wonderful cafe's throughout the island, some even more amazing hostelries to dine at It's a place that you will want to return to time and time again.AAnonymousUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10

There's some lovely walks and beaches on Bute, and if you don’t want to do a hike, the beaches and shores are accessible by good public transport links, or bike hire is available. It is a small island so easy to explore, but check bus times as service ends early in the evening. There are some good shops in Rothesay and nice cafes, although dining options are limited in the evening. There’s a putting green and crazy gold at the front and you can stroll along the promenades. The castle has re-opened and is worth a visit.SharonUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10

You can access Rothesay & The isle of bute travelling with Caledonian Mcbrayne Ferries, from Wemyss Bay. You can access Wemyss Bay from Glasgow City Centre by a direct bus service - bus 906 operated by McGills. The ferry service between Wemyss and Rothesay runs daily at a hourly service. It's a lovely ferry crossing too, takes around 35min. Now in Rothesay, there is plenty to do. Rothesay is a charming small town with a small amount of decent shops & eateries. There is also Rothesay Castle, located in the centre of the town which is well worth visiting. You can access most of the island using the bus company called west coast motors. A 24hr Adult Bus Day Ticket is only £4.50. When I was on the island I used Bus Service 490, Rhubodach To Ettrick Bay Via Rothesay. Its a very scenic Bus journey indeed. If you are into your hiking & walking, Ettrick Bay & Rhubodach at the north of the island are fabulous places for a relaxing walk. Thankyou for reading my review ☺️.

- 7.1Scored 7.1GoodRated good· 529 reviewsThe location of the hotel is great. We arrived at night so was looking forward to the view in the morning, and we weren't disappointed. The bed was comfortable so we had a good night's sleep, with not much traffic passing either. The shower was also very good, with great pressure and was hot The furniture was old, but the quality was fine! The wardrobe had some hangers and a full mirror. When we had an issue they sorted it straight away, and the guy was nice and friendly. In general it is a cute place and we had a nice stay
CiaraIreland - 9.3Scored 9.3SuperbRated superb· 414 reviewsThe location was fab, so central for everything. Apartment was spotless and very spacious with windows you could open for lovely Rothesay air. Appliances seemed like brand new and were very easy to work! Bathroom and kitchen were exceptional and finished to a very high standard. I left my hat in the apartment and contacted owner to ask if it had been found and it was sent to me a couple of days later. Such a kind thing to do and I was so grateful. Exceptional service and accommodation!JimickyUnited Kingdom

- 9.1Scored 9.1SuperbRated superb· 33 reviewsThe view of the house and the room stood out. On top of a hill in the heart of the town of Rothesay in a traditional gorgeous big house is a thrill. The shower was excellent in a bathroom with a variety of marble, the size of your room. In between was a kind of pantry for coffee and tea, with a microwave. Staff was very friendly and willing to help you out for finding a place to have dinner. Parking on top of the hill next to the house is very useful.
RVVWNetherlands - 9.2Scored 9.2SuperbRated superb· 34 reviewsEverything. The location was perfect, right across from the water, and within walking distance to Rothesay. The house itself is roomy and has everything you could want. The grounds are spacious and Carolynn and John encourage you to play on the front lawn with the various garden games they provide in the shed next to the house. They are very kind and provide little touches such as milk and biscuits, shampoo and conditioner and even disposable barbecues.JoyceUnited Kingdom
