"Great place! Beautiful and big house! Helpful owner if any questions . Strategic location right in between all distilleries. Really unique house in an idyllic situation on a beach! "

"Great cottage just outside Port Ellen. All necessary amenities were present. Great base to do day trips from!"

"This property exceeded our expectations. The view was stunning and the property was beautifully decorated and extremely well equipped."

"Such a nice place in Islay, close to everything, perfect for a Whiskey Journey!"

"This property was on a farm in a stunning location surrounded by great countryside and wildlife. Lovely sandy beaches were within a short drive. All our needs were met in the cottage which was very comfortable and very well equiped. The host was very friendly and helpful as was the rest of the family on the farm. A great place to stay to get away from it all. "

"This is a beautiful cottage in Port Charlotte. Great facilities with stunning views."

Apartment, 4 Bedrooms, Non Smoking (Saligo) | Private kitchen | Full-size fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop

"This was a picturesque property in a lovely location. Easily accessible to all Islay has to offer but far enough away from the main tourist areas to feel more like home"

"Great wee break, perfect for getting to the hills. Felt homely."

"We had the perfect stay at the Old Salt House. Kim had taken care of everything we needed. The beds were super comfortable, the shower was fab, the deck gave us stunning views, the pub round the bay was just sublime, and the cottage was always a joy to return to; a cosy neuk after the Portnahaven winds. Portnahaven and Port Wymss are gorgeous island villages. They’re off the beaten track but with so much to see, do and learn. We had an amazing time at the Whisky Festival but also on the many...

"Beautiful spacious house with well appointed kitchen. Short walk to the coast was very nice and we had a glorious sunny weekend. Everything was clean and comfortable. Quiet and peaceful."

"The cottage was comfortable and well located in the centre of Bowmore. The bath had not been cleaned before we arrived, so we cleaned it. The communication with VRBO was completely chaotic. We won't be using VRBO again."

"We’ll equipped, clean and a great location."

"Great place to stay, comfortable accommodations and taxi service to Campbeltown so that you can enjoy Springbank and other distilleries."

"Great cottage. Clean, comfortable and homely.Good sized and enclosed garden for the dog. Great location for getting about the island. Not to mention staggering home distance after a tour and taste at the distillery!Wood burning stove was amazing every evening but there were no utensils (poker, sweep etc) for maintaining and cleaning it."

"No contact from Homeaway regarding getting keys etc. Hours spent on the phone to various "customer service". Found out myself that it was managed by cottages. com. Logged in to their website to find all the information there. Probably spent too much money by booking through Homeaway rather than direct with Cottages. Com. Views were stunning, great location. Lovely gifts upon arrival (best banana cake ever) fresh flowers a lovely touch. Very clean. Missing a couple of things like a bbq and heat...

The Bowmore House Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"Andrew and Alison were the perfect hosts - very welcoming, gave great insights to places to eat in Bowmore, as well as near the distilleries we were visiting. Andrew also double checked our ferry to make sure the port wasn't switched on us! Very large, comfortable room with an amazing view over Bowmore. It's very centrally located on the Island, as well as very walkable to any place in Bowmore. Breakfast both mornings were fantastic- one a full proper Scottish breakfast cooked to perfection (great coffee too!), and the second, Andrew packed us a delicious meal to go for us to go as we had an early morning Ferry to catch. We will be staying here again when we next visit Islay! "
