Fountain View Apartment- Pet Friendly Apartment

Summary:
Located in the heart of Rothesay, Fountain View Apartment offers a perfect blend of luxury and comfort for your stay on the Isle of Bute.

Boasting stunning views directly onto Rothesay's iconic fountain and the lush greens of the Esplanade.

Just a five-minute walk from the ferry terminal, Fountain View Apartment is ideally suited for those traveling without a car.

With local shops, restaurants, and takeaways within easy reach, you’ll find everything you need right on your doorstep.

We hope you enjoy the thoughtful touches!

The Space:
Having recently undergone a full renovation, our primary goal was to create a "home-away-from-home" experience. We wanted to avoid the impersonal feel often associated with holiday homes. Instead, we focused on crafting a relaxed and inviting atmosphere, complete with all the essentials and comforts you'd expect in your own home. You'll find amenities such as Sky TV, a hairdryer, shampoo and body wash, along with a fully equipped kitchen featuring tools like mixing bowls and potato peelers.

When we first acquired the property, it was clear the space wasn't being used to its full potential, particularly with only one bedroom. Our initial task was to remove the outdated kitchen, transforming that area into a spacious master bedroom. The new kitchen was seamlessly integrated into the living area, where we maximized space by adding a breakfast bar for dining and mounting the TV on the wall to free up floor space.

The final phase of the renovation was remodelling the bathroom. We chose a sleek marble finish and lowered the ceiling to install spotlights, creating a warm and bright ambiance.

We hope you enjoy the thoughtful touches!

The Neighborhood:
Just a short journey from the mainland, the Isle of Bute is one of Scotland’s most accessible islands and it offers far more than its compact size suggests. Though only 15 miles long and 5 miles wide, Bute is rich in history, culture, wildlife, arts, and music, making it a perfect destination for visitors of all ages.

At the heart of the island lies Rothesay, the main town and arrival point for most visitors. Bustling with life during the day, Rothesay offers a relaxed, peaceful charm in the evenings after the last ferry departs. The town is home to a variety of cafés, bars, restaurants, takeaways, and of course, ice cream shops, all catering to both locals and tourists alike.

The island boasts a traditional Victorian charm, with beautiful period architecture lining its streets. Many of these historic buildings have seen thoughtful restoration in recent years, adding to the island’s unique character and appeal.

A highlight of the shoreline is the striking Isle of Bute Discovery Centre, an iconic 1920s circular building made of cast iron and glass. Lovingly refurbished, it now features a cinema, theatre, and interactive exhibits, celebrating the very best of Bute’s heritage and creativity.

History lovers will enjoy a visit to Rothesay Castle, complete with restored dungeons, thick stone walls, and an impressive great hall. Just a short stroll away, the Bute Museum offers further insight into the island’s fascinating past.

No trip to Bute would be complete without exploring Mount Stuart House, a spectacular neo-Gothic mansion set amidst breathtaking gardens. It’s an unmissable stop during your stay, offering a glimpse into the grandeur and elegance of Bute’s historic legacy.

Getting Around:
Reaching the Isle of Bute is simple and stress-free. The island is well-connected via a regular ferry service from Wemyss Bay on the Clyde coast. Wemyss Bay also has a railway station with frequent trains to and from Glasgow, making it a seamless journey whether you’re travelling by car or as a foot passenger.

The CalMac ferry takes around 35 minutes and offers a comfortable crossing with stunning coastal views. It accommodates both vehicles and foot passengers, and docks right in the heart of Rothesay, Bute’s main town.

Once you arrive, getting around is easy. Rothesay is very walkable, and taxis are readily available just outside the ferry terminal. The island is also served by a reliable public bus network, making it convenient to explore Bute without a car.

For those who enjoy a more active pace, cycling is a popular and rewarding way to see the island’s beautiful scenery.

The apartment is ideally located, with a bus stop just round the corner offering regular services around the island.

Other Things to Note:
Prior to your arrival to this property will receive a thorough clean by the HHPS Housekeeping Team. We encourage guests to maintain the cleanliness of the property during their stay.
