Absolutely gorgeous spot to stay and felt so private. The food was top notch as was the staff. And the balcony of the restaurant was perfect to watch the sunset over the bay each night. Im not a golfer but the beautiful course makes me want to learn to play. Thanks, Shane Hoskins

the property did welcome pets however the room we were given was below standard ,the window leaked badly from the storm Amy and the noise coming from it was horrendous. thankfully reception managed to put us in a suitable room, the staff on reception were excellent .the golf course was excellent but very disappointed that there was no drying room after a severe soaking from the inclement weather i would have thought that such a prestigious course as the Machrie would have suitable drying facilities the meals were excellent.

this place is just gorgeous, the rooms are perfection, super clean, the views and the golf course are beyond perfection.....and the staff.... there are no words! They held the kitchen open for members of our party on the late ferry. We were 4 couples who travel a great deal and this little gem on Islay is on our must return list. Thank you for a perfect stay

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The staff could not have been friendlier or more helpful, from front desk to restaurant/bar to pro shop, everyone was pleasant and went out of their way to make sure every need was taken care of. The only downside I experienced was the food, which I found to be very average for such a nice property. I ate breakfast once, eggs benedict, sauce was cold; and dinner once, steak was tough. This is a downside since the property is along the coast and not within walking distance of any other places to eat.

Großartiges Hotel in einer fantastischen Lage. Das Hotel liegt fußläufig am Meer und ist von einem Golf Green umgeben, der aber auch nicht Golf Spielern gut gefällt. Unser Hotelzimmer hatte einen fantastischen Blick zum Meer. Die Zimmer sind modern ausgestattet. Zum Frühstück gab es eine Auswahl ein zubereiteten schottischen Frühstücksgerichten und ein Buffet. Abends gab es Menüs aus einer wechselnden Karte mit lokalen Zutaten aus einer großartigen Küche. Auf der Restaurant Terrasse oder bei Regen in einem Kaminzimmer kann man abends noch einen Islay Whisky genießen, natürlich haben sie Single Malts aus allen Destillerien der Insel im Angebot (meine Favoriten waren neben Ardbeg,Laphroaig vor allem Port, Charlotte und Octomore 14.3). Die Möglichkeiten von Machrie, den 7 Meilen langen Strand entlang zu wandern oder die drei nahe gelegenen Destillerien in Port Ellen zu besuchen, oder einfach den Sonnenuntergang am Meer zu beobachten, machen die Location attraktiv.

Fourth visit and the improvement is fantastic!!

The Machrie always had the potential to be a top class hotel. This was my fourth visit and there has been a marked improvement which I put down to the management of the hotel provided by Another Place. Organisation, service and customer focus have all made great strides. This has moved The Machrie from having the potential to being a first class experience
