Kilmeny 5 stars

Ballygrant

Kilmeny's location may not be suitable for those guests without their own transport.

At the guest house, every room has a desk, a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom. All units will provide guests with a wardrobe and a kettle. Margarethe and Plea were outstanding hosts. One of a kind. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. The house is up on the hill with stunning views. Lovely garden with comfortable benches, where you can relish your favorite Whiskey, that you have discovered after visiting the distilleries. Highly recommended

Glenegedale House 5 stars

Kintra

Glenegedale House offers accommodation in Glenegedale and is situated 5 miles from Port Ellen and 6 miles from Bowmore.

Each room includes a flat-screen TV. Rooms are equipped with a private bathroom fitted with a shower. For your comfort, you will find bathrobes and slippers. Our hosts Emma and Graeme made us feel very welcome. The breakfast is a feast in itself! Three courses of locally sourced products cooked to perfection. There’s even the option for a tot of single malt on your porridge! The place is spotlessly clean and extremely well decorated, residents have the full run of the downstairs where they can relax in the comfy sofas and enjoy a G&T from the amazing selection of Scottish gins. They also provide evening meals and will happily cater for any special dietary requirements provided you let them know in advance. If you choose to eat out, there are good restaurants in Bowmore, the cleverly named Peatzeria and, in Port Ellen, the Sea Salt Bistro and the Islay Hotel. A visit to one or more of the distilleries on Islay is a must as is a trip to Jura and the wonderful Lussa gin distillery at the far end of the island. Would we stay there again. Absolutely…
