Excellent!

Lovely bright, warm flat. Very well equipped for a comfortable stay. It’s right in the centre of Rothesay so everything is on your doorstep.It’s on the second floor which was a challenge for our elderly dog but it means that you have a great view from the bay window in the living room.A previous review mentioned a lack of parking outside. You can park for 30 minutes, plenty of time to unload the car and there are loads of places to park for free within a very short walking distance.We hope to stay again when we come back in the summer.

bright, cost flat in Rothesay

The flat is cosy, spotlessly clean and very well-equipped, perfect for a longer stay of a few weeks like I had. The big windows let in lots of light and I loved the views across the river and the town. The location is ideal too - it's close to the ferry, the main square and the castle, and has some nice cafes and places to eat nearby. Mark was a very attentive host, sending us lots of information before we arrived and keeping in touch throughout the stay.

About the host

Hosted by Mark Lynn

Host profile image
We are from Central Scotland and enjoy spending time on the Isle of Bute. We bought this during the pandemic as somewhere that we are our three kids could use to get some time away. We now rent it out as a short term let which has been successful and we enjoy sharing our Wee Getaway with others.

Why they chose this property

The flat is right next to the ferry port in Rothesay so we never have to take the car over and can even get the train right into Wemyss Bay

What makes this property unique

We believe we offer a comfortable place for short and long term breaks with as many home comforts as we can think of.
