Boat House Super Suites is a newer, suite-style option in Rothesay, offering more space and a contemporary finish than a traditional guesthouse. It sits near the marina and harbour area, a short walk from the Wemyss Bay ferry pier and the town's restaurants and cafés.

Where it is

The suites are in Rothesay, close to the marina and harbour on the western side of the bay. The Wemyss Bay ferry pier, the Esplanade, the Winter Gardens, Rothesay Castle and the town centre are all within a short walk.

The location works well for car-free arrivals: walk off the ferry and check in without needing a taxi. Buses for Port Bannatyne, Ettrick Bay, Kilchattan Bay and Mount Stuart leave from the pierhead.

What to expect

The 'Super Suites' concept means more room than a standard hotel bedroom, often with a separate living area, kitchenette facilities, and a smarter, more self-contained setup. It is a good middle ground between a hotel and a self-catering apartment.

This option suits couples who want a bit of luxury, small families, or anyone who prefers modern fittings and extra space. Book early for summer and event weekends, as the island's better accommodation sells out quickly.
