Very quaint and intriguing place situated on the harbour front at Rothesay. The toilets themselves have been restored to their original condition and when you go in you do get the victorian feel to them. The men toilets are the ones that have renowned look about them. It is very small and will only take a couple of minutes to take a wander around but it is interesting all the same. Overall an interesting and intriguing place to visit which makes for a unique day out. Well worth a visit whilst...

Parts of the men’s loo are as it used to be. But some of the sinks need repairing and why they installed modern sinks I’ll never fathom. It’s a heritage site that needs preserving better not modernising !!! I’ve never seen the likes for many a year . It is a working loo of a bygone era when a 100 steamships would visit in a day so obviously needed loads of urinals as probably had loads to drink on...

The toilets are now apparently operated by The Council - attention any boating visitors, the toilets are no longer open to use outwith the hours of 8am to 8pm. And according to a Council worker/toilet cleaner that we spoke to today, the showers aren't able to be used either. This is a ridiculous situation for visiting mariners using Rothesay Marina and we're expected to pay for facilities that we...

Brilliant victorian toilet display. Lovingly restored and kept clean and tidy, the porcelain was a joy to use. Really felt like I was doing my business 120 years ago, and in those days a visit to the water closet was about ceremony and style. Just needed an attendant on hand to wash and dry my hands afterwards. Better days, a better time, in a better Britain that I know we all dearly love and miss.

I would not call this a museum, more a heritage icon that has been preserved in very good original condition. As such, there is not an entrance fee as they are classed as public toilets. It is only the Gents toilet that is Victorian, the ladies being a more modern building which is attached, but I believe it is OK for ladies to go into the Gents to have a look.
