Southend, Mull of Kintyre, Campbeltown
Just had a fabulous three days in this beautiful house! Pictures don’t do it justice - furnished to an extremely high level, brand new bathrooms and kitchen. The bedrooms are very spacious and toiletries just made it extra special. Loads of spare towels if required too. Lovely log burner in the living room and it was very effective. Area is so peaceful and the enclosed garden was perfect for the dog 🐶 Southend was lovely although very limited in amenities. Campbeltown was just a 15min car ride up the road and had everything we could have needed for our stay. Excellent host who was very quick to respond to any questions, and I would definitely recommend this home as a base to explore the southern end of Kintyre! We will return sometime soon 🥰

Large cosy country house in extensive grounds
Beautiful and comfortable home from home in a stunning location. Hosts were friendly and helpful. Highly recommended

The Black House, Islay
A few nights stay whilst working at one of the Distilleries. Was exactly what we needed - a comfortable stay and not too far to travel each day either. Thanks again Claire :)

Unique & peaceful house set in an idyllic location
we had fantastic time at Kintour School House loved the place from top to bottom the house and gardens were better than we could have imagined the open country side with all of the farm and wild animals around us all in all a great place and would thoroughly recommend the property peter April 27 2025

Beautiful Family Home by the Sea
Our workforce confirmed that the accommodation and location were both superb. it was stormy one of the days and they said it was amazing watching the huge waves. Thank you again for allowing us to book your lovely house. Kind regards Caroline - The Wee House Company

Pier House
We had a lovely stay in Tina’s place. A lot of space in the house which was good for the children. There were toys provided too which helped. The house has a walled garden too for people who need this. The outside space overlooking the pier is not the most beautiful place in the island but it is what it is not Tina’s fault. However, the views from inside the property are breathtaking. Minor issues: some furniture are getting dated, there is no WC upstairs, electric showers. Overall I recommend this place for families and groups of friends

The Wee House
We loved staying in The Wee House. It was perfect - very clean and fresh, cosy, comfortable, warm and what a pretty outlook over the bay! It had everything you need- in fact a home from home. Lovely garden too. We could have happily stayed there for longer. Highly recommend this sweet house to anyone going to Islay. Port Ellen is a great base to explore the island and it also has lovely places to eat out. We had dinner in the SeaSalt Bistro and it was delicious and the staff were great. The sun was shining the whole time we were there-May-so we got to appreciate the picturesque setting at maximum! Thank you Janice for your quick responses to our booking. So glad we managed to get a stay at the Wee House as it is very popular.

Seaside house on Isle of Gigha
This house is a home from home on a beautiful island. We actually got married on Gigha during our stay and Nicola went above and beyond to help us gather together anything we might need. It is such a beautiful island and this is a brilliant place to stay. There isn't much accommodation of the island so we felt very grateful to have booked Ceol Mara for our special week.

The Loft at Druim, Rathlin Island
We had the best time staying with Una and Stewart in the loft. The apartment was so well located for walking to and from the west lighthouse (around 40-45 mins walk), set in beautiful surrounds of sheer peace, listening to the snipe chattering in the darkness at night. The space is fantastic, warm and cosy, and was even more spacious than we realised. Stewart and Una were always really quick to respond, and were so kind to also lend us their bikes as we couldn’t fit ours in our car with all of our luggage. Stewart picked us up and dropped us off from the harbour too so we didn’t have to walk to the house with all of our things. I would thoroughly recommend booking, and look forward to returning. (I also loved having the opportunity to watch a DVD of the French classic ‘Jean de Florette’ which was in the apartment, and I hadn’t seen in years 😄)

Camisole
14:07 Michelle was very accommodating thanks again

Luxury Self catering apartment
We had a lovely stay at Katrina’s, what a wonderful location! Very comfortable apartment, had everything that we needed. Katrina met us and showed us around and shared some wonderful tips for finding the best beaches, restaurants, spotting the seals and pirates!

Glebe Apartment
Clean, tidy and spacious apartment located in the city center. Lea is a great host - very flexible and helpful, I would definitely recommend staying with her! Thank you for the pleasant stay, we will be back!

Sornbank-Bank Flat
Great location and accommodated the team without any issues. Would highly recommend this location.

Kilchoman Apartment
Although my stay was for work, it's made more palatable with great accomodation. Comfortable, quiet, warm, clean, well equipped & a great location to tour Islay. Comfy bed & well equipped kitchen. Outside parking is great ( tho the universal law for parking wherever you want during school times never ceases to anaze me as people parked left, right & indeed centre (right in front of the step's to the apartment)) My only minor point would be the TV is rather small & antiquated, especially for the size of the living room. The TV remote was a tad temperamental. The host is superb & I wouldn't think twice about booking again. Highly recommended!

Island View 4 Bedroom Flat
we had a lovely stay. very spacious apartment, with everything needed for few days break. great views of town and surrounding area. very clean, well equipped.

Taillear House, Ballygrant
Lovely accommodation with everything we needed. Would thoroughly recommend and would not hesitate to book again next time we are on Islay

Spacious 3 bedroom apartment in Campbeltown centre
Really lovely flat that was perfect for what we needed. The only thing I would say is it’s not east to find as the building doesn’t seem to have a name. We found it though (opposite the fish and chip place) and were even able to park right outside the door.

The old Loft
Attractive peaceful location which is close to Campbeltown. Looks like it has been recently refurbished to a high standard. Recommended.

FLAT 2/2 20 Burnside Street Campbeltown
Mary's place was in a great location and exactly as described. Unit provided a very comfortable stay with plenty of parking in close proximity. I would not hesitate to stay here again for golfing or exploring Campbeltown and the surrounding areas.

Ground floor central apartment
Perfect spot for middle of Campbeltown, clean and as stated. Equipped as you need. only thing that wasn't clear was where parking was available opposite until you got in to property but there were loads of spaces nearby so not an issue in the slightest.

Adults only-2 bedrooms Dun Eistein Tayvallich
What a fabulous place this is. A beautiful house situated on the far side of the small marina in Tayvallich. Quiet, peaceful and easily accessible to the most beautiful woodlands, with wildlife, birds, walks and stunning views. Helen and Mark were most welcoming and happy to help and advise on the surrounding areas. I could easily live here!! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Self-Catering Suite set in rural Guest House
We stayed here to use as a base to explore Kintyre. It was on a small farm a few miles south of Tarbert and Kennacraig where the ferry to Islay and Jura leaves from. Further south was where the ferry to Gigha leaves. Our main plan was to visit Gigha. The self catering accommodation was very comfortable and stylishly decorated. Just remember you’ll be staying on a small farm so be prepared to be wakened by bird song and a little later the cockerel 😂 We have no hesitation in recommending this accommodation. The hosts also have part of the farmhouse as a B&B.

Lovely 2-bedroom ground-floor flat with garden.
Great stay in Kevin’s Flat. Perfect location with a short walk into the town and local amenities. Flat is spotlessly clean with everything you need for your stay. As regular visitors to Campbeltown we will definitely book again.

Apartment Mafeking Place
We had a fabulous time staying at Iwona's apartment in Campbeltown: spotlessly clean, great location, warm, VERY comfortable beds, smart TV...local highlights were the walks and Springbank Distillery Tour. Perfect location to explore Kintyre. Welcome biscuit box was a kind bonus/welcome extra! Thanks Iwona!
