This was our 3rd stay and wont be our last. Frank and Barbara are lovely friendly people who are there when needed. The accommodation is great and has everything to ensure a comfortable stay. Breakfast was perfect and plentiful, I think if my husband would have kept eating then the food would have kept coming!! Thanks again for providing such... More

I have just returned from a super weekend at this wonderful B&B. Although I have stayed there many times it never fails to amaze me how Frank and Barbara manage to maintain their high standards in this economic climate. Every guest is welcomed as though they are part of the family. The bedrooms with en-suites are large, airy, bright and... More

Me and five mates stayed in this B&B for 1 night while we were in Rothesay for a couple of days fishing. The Moorings is a fantastic place to stay and is very comfortable and clean. The house has beautiful period features but with the all the requirements for today's travellers. The rooms we had were all very comfortable with... More

Great place to stay, comfortable and clean. The house has beautiful period features but with the all the requirements for today's travellers. Room was very comfortable with great views of Rothesay Bay. Great Scottish breakfast prepared to a high standard as well as a range of cereals, fresh fruit and yoghurts. Frank and Barbara are great hosts.

Hotel's location is close to the ferry and the city center. I got a spacious family room just for my self. Although the room was quiet and the bed was comfortable, i couldn't wait to leave this place: the room was very dirty when i checked in and it wasn't cleaned once during my stay! The breakfast is just ok,... More

Great place to stay. House is very beautiful and the hosts are lovely. Easy to walk into the restuarants and pubs, its a small town. Room was very comfortable and spacious with a sea view, nicely decorated in keeping with period features. Breakfast was great too!

Great location, welcoming host - only met Frank. Far enough from the town to be quiet (and get parked!) but close enough to leave the car behind if you want. Nice large room with tall windows giving wonderful views over the bay and the hills beyond. Clean and comfortably furnished with a sofa and chair and a decent sized telly... More

A very comfortable room with a great view of the bay and the shipping. Barbara and Frank made us feel very welcome, and provided an excellent breakfast. We took Frank's recommendation of a walking tour of Rothesay and found it to be most interesting and informative.

If you are looking for somewhere as per the title look no further. It’s half a mile from the ferry and 100 yards from the nearest bar. Barbara and Frank are perfect hosts. Good sized room, nicely furnished, super views out of the dining room.
