Location

Our properties are located on Bute, the island we call home. Bute's principal town Rothesay became very popular as a tourist destination in the Victorian era when many Glaswegians would go ‘doon the watter’ (down the River Clyde) and across on the ferry to Bute.

Ferry - Calmac Ferries operate two routes to Bute: Wemyss Bay- Rothesay (crossing time 35 minutes) and Colintraive-Rhubodach (crossing time 5 minutes). Wemyss Bay-Rothesay is the main route to the island and tickets can be booked online in advance via Calmac's website. If you are arriving by car and prefer a scenic drive then we recommend the Colintraive-Rhubodach crossing.

Visit the castle ruins in the centre of town, enjoy the stunning scenery with coastal walks or on one of the cycle routes around the island and visit historic Mount Stuart House as well as its superb gardens. Why not try one of the island’s three golf courses or chill out at Scalpsie Bay and watch the seals, with stunning views across to Arran?
