Chandlers Apartment occupies a remarkable waterfront setting on Bute, with mature gardens falling towards a rocky shore and wide views across the Firth of Clyde. Its private terrace, generous kitchen-dining room and comfortable bedrooms make it a restful self-catering base beside the water.

The house stands above a quiet, wooded stretch of shoreline, with the sea visible through the trees and the Cowal hills beyond. It feels tucked away, but Bute's villages and ferry connections remain within reach.
A furnished terrace faces the water — a memorable place for breakfast, an evening drink or simply watching boats pass along the firth.
The spacious kitchen and dining room has room to settle in for proper meals, with a full kitchen beside a large dining table. Tall windows look into the greenery surrounding the house.
It is well suited to longer stays and slow evenings at home after a day walking, cycling or exploring the island.
The bedrooms are individually furnished, with crisp white linen, soft tartan accents and tea-and-coffee facilities. One room also includes a small sofa for reading or relaxing.
The calm, uncluttered interiors suit the setting: comfortable rather than fussy, with the shoreline and gardens as the main event.
Wake to the trees and water outside the window, then set out for Rothesay, Mount Stuart, Kilchattan Bay or Bute's west-coast beaches. Returning to the terrace at the end of the day is part of the appeal.
