The Ardyne Guest House

Nestled in a prime spot overlooking Rothesay Bay and the Cowal Hills, The Ardyne Guest House sits just a short 2-minute drive from the town’s ferry terminal, offering a welcoming retreat with top-notch service. This charming Victorian property features comfortable en suite rooms, each equipped with modern touches like a flat-screen TV, DVD player, and tea-and-coffee essentials. Some rooms also come with complimentary WiFi to keep you connected.

Depending on your preference, you can choose a room with either sea or garden vistas, and every one includes a private shower, hairdryer, and free toiletries—plus, a few rooms offer the extra luxury of a bathtub.

Do note that all accommodations are located on the first or second floors, accessed via long staircases, so this might not be ideal for everyone.

When you’re ready to explore, the town center is just a leisurely 10–15 minute walk along the waterfront, with Rothesay Castle about a mile away. Golf enthusiasts will love the convenience, as Rothesay Golf Club is only a 3-minute drive, and Bute Golf Club is within 20 minutes.

Couples tend to adore this spot, often giving its location a glowing 9.4 rating for two-person getaways.
