About this property
Motor Yacht on Isle of Bute. Ideal for couples, or families. In Marina.
This is a lovely boating experience based on a little private marina only a few miles from Rothesay The only town on the beautiful Island of Bute which is only a short ferry trip across the river Clyde and an hours drive from Glasgow. Please note, this is at a static beeth at marina only . Not a charter to drive.
The village of Portbannantyne has a small shop - post office , a lovely local pub and a lovely Biestro - all within a few minutes walk of the Marina.
The Island has a wealth of history with a castle located in the centre of the town which boasts a moat. Mount Stuart house which was the seat home of the Stuarts of Bute .
Many beautiful beaches and plenty of lovely walks .
You would not be disappointed if you’ve never visited the island previously or like many returning doon the watter!

About the host
Hosted by Roger
We are from the Island of Bute , Iona my daughter & I enjoy meeting new people who often end up as friends.
Why they chose this property
The Island of Bute is a step back in time with its slow pace of life and where the locals look out for one another . We have sever beautiful sandy beaches and a real castle that actually has a moat. Lots of history to explore.
What makes this property unique
This is a Motor Cruiser…. Gives you the boating experience without having the stress of actually getting out on the sea.
This is a very special cosy place to stay on the water with the tide coming in and out.
