The keys were in a key safe and we were given the pin number prior to arriving.
The 2 locks on the door were quite stiff and difficult to get key in and turn it. But sorted out with WD40

Very comfortable and clean property, great bed, shower and attention to detail. One of the nicest holiday lets we have stayed in, right in the centre of Rothesay and nothing had not been thought of and provided!
It was great, Rothesay itself is a little run down but it is the perfect base from which to explore the island.

Absolutely loved everything - the cottage provided a warm, comfortable haven whilst in Rothesay. We loved the cottage and serendipitously discovered whilst there that my great uncle lived at 22 and my great grandfather lived at 13 bishop st mid 1840’s. The cottage gave me a real sense of what their lives might have been like before immigrating to Australia 💕
Leaving! Wish we could have stayed longer

Close to centre, lovely property with exceptional facilities and storage. Very comfortable. Owners responsive to some minor issues with WiFi and tv.
Unexpected arrival of Waverley and sea trip made the difference.
Road noise! Some minor issues but internet isn’t great on Bute.

A wonderful cottage right in the centre of Rothesay with all the facilities a couple could need. We travelled by bike and there was a space to keep them safe. Everything was beautifully clean and well organised, and we had a warm welcome and every possible help from the hosts. We will be back.
Everything perfect

Unassuming from the outside, but don't be deceived the cottage has plenty of space and a garden room, keeping it light. Has everything needed, comfy chairs, well stocked kitchen with all appliances, very comfortable bed (just watch your head as the ceiling slopes on one side), and a good shower. Lovely sea theme to the decor. Couldn't fault the position within a few hundred yards of the ferry, sea front, Co-op, Bute Yard and cafes. Handy for the rest of the island too.Julie (owner) made several recommendations for places to eat/drink and they were spot on.
No designated parking, but was not an issue as we always found somewhere on the streets close by without any problem... we had planned to use buses to both ends of the island in order to walk back, but they were very infrequent to the northern end. Possibly better in high summer.

Couldn’t have wished for a better place to stay.
The host was very informative and helpful, the place itself was excellent in every aspect and we didn’t want to leave.

We liked everything about this property from the friendly welcome on arrival, to the lovely cosy sitting room and bedroom, well equipped kitchen and bathroom and the added bonus of conservatory, courtyard and bike store.
The location was really convenient too for shopping, bars eating out and harbour. We are more than happy to recommend this property.
We didn’t dislike anything but one or two kitchen implements may help self caterers eg a bread board, tea strainer, cafetière, a few more mugs , tin foil etc but non are essential of course!

Self catering.
Location of cottage a little disappointing. No nice views. Sadly the weather was poor during my stay, so not in the best of moods!
Very convenient for a couple of nice restaurants.
Restricted parking in the area a nuisance.

Warmth of greeting from Julie, our host. Literal warmth and comfort of this tastefully furnished and well equipped cottage. Proximity to the pier and all facilities - you could see the ferry when you looked down the road. Garden room that caught the sun. Wool blankets and hot water bottles for extra luxury and comfort. Pre-set central heating providing warmth just when you needed it. Julie makes sure guests have contact details in case of any problems plus she lives next door.
Nothing.
