Family cycling on Isle of Bute

Post by manxaccie »

HI,

Does anyone know how busy and hilly the road from Rothsey to Port Bannatyne is on the Isle of Bute?

Thinking of taking my 7 year old over and just want to check the route is suitable? I know there's the old tram route from Port Bannatyne to Ettrick Bay, which will be off road.

Thanks for any help

Hi
Just seen this hope my reply isn’t too late.
The road to Port Bannatyne is effectively flat. There are cars especially if the ferry has just got in but sight lines are good and we have cycled along it many times with our children (now age 8 and 13).
