Host review score
Stewart Hall is a rural idyll, situated on the beautiful west coast of Bute. The 5 Star Coach House, though self-contained, forms the west wing of the house. The wonderful views south west across the Sound of Bute to the majestic hills of Arran, and the gentle slopes of Inchmarnock, are ever changing and truly dramatic. The three acres of mature and tranquil grounds are surrounded by gently rolling farmland. Ancient forts stand guard over the valley, and standing stones are evident in the adjacent fields. The stunning beach at St Ninian's Bay is only a short walk away. The Category A Listed Georgian building is believed to have been built by the Adam family for the Rev. James Stewart, Laird of Kilwhinleck, in 1760. The Coach House has been furnished and equipped to the highest standard, with meticulous attention to detail. The large drawing room on the ground floor is both sumptuous and comfortable , with windows giving views over the fields to the sea. The dining area is situated by arched glass doors which lead to the garden. The kitchen has everything you could need to make best use of the superb local produce on offer. The master bedroom is extremely spacious with french doors onto the back lawn and an ensuite bathroom. There is a second shower room on the ground floor. The first floor consists of a double bedroom with adjoining sitting room and a third bathroom. There is a plethora of natural light from the large well appointed windows throughout. Although a perfect escape, the Coach House is a superb base from which to explore the awesome scenery of the island. It is also ideally situated to the local amenities, if you take a right turn at the end of the drive you are less than two miles from the main own of Rothesay with its local shops, bars, restaurants and the main ferry terminal. Turn left and you are five minutes from the Straad and ten from Ettrick Bay. After a day exploring, the Coach House is the perfect home to return to.
Tranquil and serene with the most stunning views towards the mountains of Arran. Luxuriously appointed the Coach House is the most perfect escape. A constant refrain from guests? .....'I have never slept so well". As hosts we love welcoming people to our home. Avid supporters of local businesses, we offer you the complimentary welcome of your first morning's breakfast, so that you can sample the superb sausages and bacon from our local butcher, or Ritchie's famous smoked salmon. If you prefer a leisurely start to your morning then Karen will happily prepare and cook your breakfast for you. Although the Coach House is fully equipped for self catering, dinner can also be provided by prior arrangement if required- Karen is an excellent cook! Using our superb local produce, a beautiful 3 course meal is available. A selection of menus will be on offer - Karen makes sure to cater perfectly to your choice and preferences. David is extremely knowledgable about all things Bute and will happily advise if needed. Friendly, relaxed and approachable.
The Coach House is located in three acres of mature gardens, with fields to the front leading to the sea, and fields to the back of the property. The house is accessed via a private drive. The Coach House is the self contained west wing of the main house, Stewart Hall. Extremely comfortable, the perfect base from which to explore Bute. Although intensely private the Coach House is situated within two miles of the main town of Rothesay, therfore all local amenities are easily accessible.
