For a peaceful relaxing holiday, in a tranquil location, Springbank Cottage provides the perfect holiday home. Located in Ardbeg, just a mile along the coast from Rothesay, this characterful three bedroom cottage has stunning sea views from the lounge and all bedrooms. It is a spacious, well equipped, comfortable home with free Wi-Fi, piano and open log fire.
The cottage is in a peaceful and private location with beautiful established gardens, lawns, sunny patio with garden furniture and pond. Yet Rothesay town, with its harbour shops and cafes, is only a twenty minute walk away. In the opposite direction, a coastal walk with beautiful views (seals and herons can frequently be seen), will take you to Port Bannantyne.
Springbank Cottage's elevated position just a two minute walk from the foreshore gives panoramic sea views towards the Ayrshire coast and across Rothesay Bay.
The Isle of Bute is unique in that it feels wild and remote, yet is easily accessible. There is walking, cycling, golf, horse riding, fishing, kayaking, wildlife, historical sites and standing stones, beautiful unspoiled beaches, trips on the Waverley paddle steamer in the summer months, pub music sessions, a castle and the exceptional stately home, Mount Stuart.
The downstairs accommodation comprises: living room, dining room dining kitchen double bedroom and family bathroom with over bath shower. Upstairs comprises: large single bedroom with extra pull-out bed, small single bedroom and WC with wash basin.
Cars can be parked on Ardbeg Road, where there is ample unrestricted parking. The house is situated up a private track and cars may be driven to the gate of Springbank Cottage for unloading/loading.
NB: Access to the house is via a sloping path with approximately twenty long shallow steps, followed by a further seven stone steps to the front door (please see photographs). Unfortunately, the cottage would not be suitable for those with limited mobility or fitness. Also, if you have children, please be aware that the pond is unfenced.
