One Marine Place

We stayed in the Kerrycroy Bay apartment for 4 nights and wasn’t overly impressed. To start with some positive points the property is in a fab location and bus stops located directly outside for easy access to and from Rothesay and the rest of the island. Also fab sea views and lovely gardens. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything needed for a family to self cater with ease. Also very peaceful and quite relaxing and we all slept well. Negative points. The wifi very bad and totally unusable at points so we were unable to watch TV and had no access to any live TV channels. We didn’t have control of the central heating it was done remotely so at points we were quite cold. There was a leak in the roof of one of the bedrooms which caused a mouldy smell. One of the showers was basically unusable due to very low water pressure. One of the heaters had to be shut off due to extremely loud noise due to air locks (Lynn was informed at the time and sorted this out promptly) part of the appeal for us booking this property was that it was advertised with children’s playground equipment in the garden which was completely removed during our stay to the disappointment of my 2 children. All in all we wouldn’t return to this property as it didn’t suit all of our needs it was extremely basic and in need of an upgrade in parts.

We spent 3 nights in the St Ninians flat upstairs. The view across the Clyde was fabulous, possibly better than the downstairs flats. The house is well placed for travelling around the island with bus stops nearby. It was kept very clean and the beds were very comfortable and the heating came on when we needed it. The nearest supermarket (Coop) is in Rothesay itself about a mile away. The only point to be aware of is that in common with most other holiday flats, previous renters have made a complete mess of the frying pans and the one teacloth. You might be advised to bring your own.

We have just stayed in the Ettrick Bay apartment for 5 days. We were on the island for our sons wedding and family members stayed in all of the other 5 apartments. We loved every minute of our stay! Lynn was very easy to contact and nothing was too much trouble to her. The apartments were immaculately clean and I loved the big fluffy towels and good quality bed linen. The kitchenette was very well equipped and as the weather was glorious, we were able to sit out together on the garden. There were lots of outdoor games in the shed to use as well. We had a wonderful stay on the aisle of Bute and would love to return and we would stay again at One Marine Place in a heart beat!!

We stayed for three nights as a family with a young baby. The apartment had everything we could have possibly needed, and nothing was too much trouble during our stay. The place was clean, comfortable, spacious and had the most incredible views where we could sit and watch the ferry. We definitely hope to stay again!

We were attracted by the ‘Luxury’ apartments description backed up by the photos. Our apartment was luxury in terms of beautiful views from the windows (we were an upstairs apartment) and lovely big soft towels. The apartment was clean though had a strong smell as you went through the door. The bathroom was hopelessly small, very narrow bath and pathetic shower which gave little water and shower head wouldn’t stay in place. Bedroom 1 was adequate though you could feel and hear the mattress springs buckling as you got in/out of bed. Kitchen was disappointing and didn’t reflect website photos. Budget equipment, cutlery stored on a shelf in the sink cupboard, Hob difficult to operate, extractor ineffective. Living space adequate with great views from the windows. Grounds spacious and well maintained with ample space for storing bicycles, washing lines and outdoor seating and parking. Convenient location for getting into Rothesay or for trips around the island.

Great views of the sea, lovely and warm, excellent position. A really comfortable flat

Beautifully situated overlooking the bay, nothing whatsoever to dislike about it.

Communications great and lovely place
