Bute House - Great Sea Views!

Flat consists of a family bedroom (double bed and three single beds) overlooking the bay and a double bedroom.
Lounge offers beautiful sea views and is equipped with a 4k HD Smart TV allowing access to Prime, Netflix, Now etc (with your own account details), blu-ray player and digital radio.

A fantastic location, right on the seafront, about a twenty minute walk from the town centre. Can be a little chilly in winter but is clean and well equipped. Host replies promptly to messages and is very helpful.

Great base for a few night on Bute

As a family with two small children, the apartment was ideal. Beds were comfy, kitchen was well equipped, and the view from the sitting room to die for! The kids loved using the binoculars to look at the boats in the bay. The bathroom is small with just a shower (no bath) but fine for a few days. 5-minute drive from the big Co-op in Rothesay.

Super week in Bute

This flat is wonderful with amazing sea views. Well appointed and a good heating system. We had a lovely week discovering Bute. Recommend the weekly jam session at the Anchor At Port Ballantine. Most places accept dogs and there’s some good food to be had in local cafes and bars.

Gem of a property

Highly recommend this flat, very clean and tidy. Received full instructions from the host who also kept in touch during the holiday, making sure everything was okay. Magnificent views across the sea from the living room window. Nice and quiet. Well equipped kitchen with everything you need. Extremely comfortable beds, the most comfortable I’ve ever come across. WiFi was very strong.

Great apartment

The apartment is clean and comfortable with great views. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking although apart from salt, pepper and cooking oil there were no other basics such as tea and coffee.Communication with the owner was excellent. It was easy to park in front of the property. It might not suit those with mobility issues as the (internal) stairs to the property are quite steep. We enjoyed our stay and would be happy to return.

A well-appointed, spacious flat with gorgeous views

We had a lovely long weekend at Campbell's property in Ardbeg. It was super convenient to meet up with family staying in Rothesay - just a 3 minute drive - and incredibly easy to get to anywhere on the island by car. We also enjoyed some scenic morning walks - and one chilly swim - with the dog. The flat was very comfortable, the living room has stunning views from the large bay window, and the kitchen was well equipped. Campbell was excellent at communicating before and during the tenancy, I'd love to visit again soon. again
