Seafront Church

Rothesay Beach and woodland trails through Bute are minutes away on foot or by car from Seafront Church, a converted Victorian church that sleeps nine across four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The property sits near enough to the shore for a quick coastal walk, and close to Ettrick Bay if you want to venture further for picnicking or paddling. The converted building keeps its original character—vaulted ceilings and stained glass remain—while the interior has been fitted for families and groups who want to self-cater comfortably.

Downstairs holds an open-plan living and dining space with a smart TV, plus a kitchen equipped for proper cooking: electric oven, hob, dishwasher, microwave and fridge. Upstairs, bedrooms include a four-poster kingsize with an extra single bed, two kingsize rooms, and a twin. One bedroom is set up for young children with books and toys; a travel cot and highchair are available. Bathrooms have both bath and separate shower cubicles. The front garden includes a sitting area and barbecue. One well-behaved pet stays free of charge.

Wifi, electricity, bed linen and towels are included. The property is non-smoking. Parking is free and unreserved. This suits families wanting space to spread out, or friends sharing a base for exploring the island's beaches, forest paths and cycle routes.
