About The Boat House Bute
The Boat House Bute offers a small collection of self-catering suites overlooking Rothesay Bay, each fitted with a kitchenette, king or super-king bed and its own dining and working space. Contact-free check-in and daily-fresh towels make it a straightforward option for guests wanting independence rather than a full hotel service.
Every suite has a sea view, and the location a short walk from the ferry terminal makes arrival and departure simple for foot passengers. A three-night minimum applies to most suites, reflecting its popularity with longer breaks rather than single overnight stops.
The suites suit couples or small groups who want to cook for themselves after a day exploring Bute, with Rothesay's shops and harbourside restaurants close enough for an evening out when self-catering isn't the plan.

Wow, how lucky was I to be given the front room in the Boat House Super Suites, facing out across the harbour to watch all the comings and goings of the ferries. Perfect location with free parking on the street. The shops, restaurants, cafes, hotels, and Castle and churches are only a two minute walk away. To the ferry is a one minute drive. The room is luxurious. There is a little kitchen facility and I loved the way the breakfast was ready there for me every day. I could have stayed longer and spent more time dreaming out the window. Very comfortable. I highly recommend staying here at the Boat House Super Suites!

Suite 2 was fabulous, spacious and well equipped. Small kitchenette with everything for breakfast in the fridge. Huge bed, very comfortable. Good bed linen. Shower room is big, with power shower. Close to centre of Rothesay, with view of the Clyde.

The location was 5 mins from Ferry terminal, 5 mins into Rothesay. The Superior Suite was fantastic and tastefully decorated. The shower was fab and I had the softest most beautiful smelling towels. The view from my bay fronted window was amazing in all weather. The continental style breakfast that was provided was just perfect. The owner Sara was lovely too, nothing is too much trouble. I will be back again as Bute is a gorgeous island.
