Ardyne House is a guest house in Rothesay, the Isle of Bute's main town. It is within easy walking distance of the ferry terminal, the promenade, the shops on High Street and the town's restaurants and cafés, making it a practical choice for visitors arriving by public transport.

The house is in Rothesay, a short walk from the seafront and the Caledonian MacBrayne ferry terminal. You can arrive on foot from the ferry, drop your bags and be on the promenade within minutes.
Rothesay has a good range of places to eat, a Victorian Winter Gardens building, Rothesay Castle and regular buses to other parts of the island.
Bedrooms are simply and smartly furnished with dark wood beds, crisp white linen and bedside lamps. The best of them look straight out over the bay towards the mainland hills.
There are larger rooms too, including one with a bunk over a double bed, which works well for families travelling with children.
A green-painted family room has a triple bunk arrangement and plenty of morning light, useful when you need space for four.
There is also a well-equipped kitchen with an oven, microwave, kettle, toaster and washing machine, so longer stays are easy to manage.
Expect a traditional Scottish guest house stay: a comfortable room, breakfast and local advice from hosts who know the island well. It suits couples, solo travellers and anyone who wants a straightforward base in town.
Rooms are typically en-suite or with private facilities, and the atmosphere is more personal than a large hotel. Breakfast is usually included in the rate.
Rothesay Castle, the Victorian Winter Gardens, the seafront promenade and the town's restaurants are all within walking distance. For a day trip, take the bus or drive to Mount Stuart, Ettrick Bay or Kilchattan Bay.
