Isle of Bute

Following Cumbrae we spent a couple of nights at Rothesay on the Isle of Bute. Grand Victorian and Edwardian houses surround the town. We almost didn't take a bus trip around the island when we were the only passengers for the midday bus.  Luckily one other person arrived and the driver was OK to go with three!

We moored in the small outer harbour which was home to hundreds of Starfish, another interesting attraction were the restored Victorian toilets on the quay - but only for gentlemen, the ladies toilets are a modern add-on.  The showers were very welcome, if a little hot, after several days without!

The photo's show, the Victorian toilets, Rothesay Harbour, the view across Bute from the Rothesay golf course (Cumbrae is the Island in the left), Ardencraig gardens and us outside the Squat Lobster (great fish and chips).
