Rothesay /ˈrɒθ.si/ (About this soundlisten) (Scottish Gaelic: Baile Bhòid) is the principal town on the Isle of Bute, in the council area of Argyll and Bute, Scotland. It can be reached by ferry from Wemyss Bay which offers an onward rail link to Glasgow. At the centre of the town is Rothesay Castle, a ruined castle which dates back to the 13th century, and which is unique in Scotland for its circular plan. Rothesay lies along the coast of the Firth of Clyde.

In modern Scottish Gaelic Rothesay is known as Baile Bhòid meaning "town of Bute".[1] The English language name, described as "Rothersay" in 1321, "Rosay" c. 1400 and "Rothissaye" about 1500 originally referred to the castle. This structure had a moat connected to the sea and the name may have originally meant "Rother's Isle" (Old Norse -ey meaning "isle") or be a corruption of the Gaelic rath meaning "fort".[2][3][4]
