The flat is in a perfect location, close to the ferry and all the amenities in Rothesay. Fantastic views, we watched a seal in the bay across the road swimming around one morning. Easy on road parking and a large carpark nearby, dog friendly with extra dog bowls in the kitchen. The flat is warm, cosy, comfortable and spacious and the kitchen is very well equipped. The communication with Angela was excellent.

This place was perfect for our stay. The view was amazing! The kitchen had everything we needed. The location was great and parking was very easily found on the street in front of the building. Angela seemed truly interested that we had a great stay answering our questions about the flat and the area quickly. We all wished we had a couple of more days there.

Beautiful beaches, sunny weather, the flat was very well equipped and immaculately clean.Highly recommend everything there, like your own home. Very thoughtful touches.We had a relaxing, healthy break.Syrian cafe on sea front is excellent. Sometimes more difficult to get a meal in evening, one or two options only. Didn’t find recommended fish and chip restaurant very good but may have been an off day. Pizzas were shop bought cheaper style bases. Fish not great either.Hotel on Main Street upstairs restaurant very good and dog friendly.Would go again in a heartbeat.Diana
