That time we went to Islay to see where our favorite whiskey is distilled. There are numerous distilleries on the island and wonderful tours. Hire a car from a local and stay at a lovely B&B.

The Bowmore House Bed & Breakfast

The Bowmore House Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent
"We were working on the island for a few days & im glad we decided to stay at Andrew & Alison’s B&B. Lovely welcoming people who done a fantastic breakfast for us every morning. The rooms were huge, warm & very comfortable. On another note, we managed to finish our job earlier than expected & Andrew was kind enough to contact the ferry company and change the time of our return journey so we could get back home quicker. That man is worth his weight in gold. If we ever have to return to the island for more work, we will only ever stay at the Bowmore. Highly recommended, 5 star’s!!! Sam GlassWorx Installations Ltd"
