The MV Bute, Eilean Bhòd in Gaelic, serves the isle of Bute alongside her sister ship the MV Argyle. Crossing a route with a huge tradition, the MV Bute connects the mainland with the Victorian splendour of Rothesay and the beautiful beaches beyond.
The MV Bute is equipped with a multitude of facilities and amenities, all designed to make your journey as comfortable as possible. Marvel at the natural beauty of Scotland’s landscape as it gently drifts past from our ample Outdoor Seating, take in the awe-inspiring views from the Observation Lounge, or relax with your four-legged friend in our specially designated Pet Area.
Located at the centre of Deck 4 you’ll find an oasis of calm known as the Coffee Cabin. A place to enjoy a range of hot drinks, specialty coffees and light snacks surrounded by amazing views – the perfect destination for some ‘me time’ while en route to your destination.
The Coffee Cabin boasts a whole range of specialty coffees to suit every casual drinker and connoisseur alongside a variety of teas from traditional breakfast tea to unique fruity infusions. Drinks can be enjoyed as a takeaway to be savoured on deck alongside the spectacular views or within our lounges.
We know that nothing goes better in life with a coffee than a cake! Thankfully the Coffee Cabin have you covered with a range of cakes, scones and muffins ready to be enjoyed inside or out on deck.
