We spent Christmas at the cottage, with my dad. It was so beautiful and brilliantly equipped. We had a wonderful time and were so impressed with the accommodation. There was only 2 things that would have made the place the most perfect holiday let on the planet: 1) If the knives were sharp! As we knew a lot of places... More

We stayed in Mashman's Cottage the three days that we were in Bowmore. The location of the distillery and cottages is great. There is a market for all of your self-catering needs right across the street and the main bus stop for all the routes that take you around the island picks up about 50m from the distillery gate. The... More

Thoroughly enjoyed our short stay at Bowmore Cottages in August 2012. Very comfortable accommodation and very well equipped. Patio doors from living/dining room opened onto walled landscaped garden area - mild weather meant we could have breakfast outdoors and take coffee down to sea wall with views over Loch Indaal! Both bedrooms had luxury ensuites each with wonderful jacuzzi bath.... More

Stayed in Garden Cottage in Juy for 3 nights. The kitchen area looks on to the back courtyard and therefore the sea, so lovely to sit there. The lounge, though, was small with no view so we didn't really use this at all. Kitchen modern but no dishwasher and static oven (didn't think they made them anymore). So kitchen looked... More

Stayed at the Stillman's cottage for 4 nights in March 2012 whilst doing some family research around Islay. The house was immaculate- very clean, tidy and tastefully decorated. We enjoyed our free bottle of whisky in the evenings whilst sitting around our gas flame fireplace. The two bedrooms upstairs both had large ensuite bathrooms with showers and amazing jacuzzi baths.... More

My husband and I were privileged to stay in the Maltman's Cottage for 3 nights and we couldn't have been happier. The pristine cottage was supremely comfortable, with every convenience: a firm bed, brand-new kitchen, washer/dryer, free wifi, and much more. Located in the heart of Bowmore, just steps from the tourist office, food co-op, the Round Church, restaurants, and... More

Visiting in February 2012 and expecting terrible weather, we were delightfully surprised to find that the temperature was up to 13C on one day. A family party of 9, we stayed at The Bakehouse, the largest house in the complex, owned and run by Bowmore Distillery. The accommodation had 6 bedrooms, all ensuite, a nice kitchen and a huge lounge... More

I can only add to BigSpo review that this is fantastic accommodation. The quality, cleanliness and location make this place a winner. I was lucky to stay in the "Old Bakery" on the same trip and had a brilliant time. The only downside, and I mean a very small one, is that trying to cook breakfast for 13 hungry, hungover... More

Stayed here for three nights in the "Stillmans Cottage" We were in a large group and had also hired the much larger "Old Bakery" next door. The location is perfect, across the road from a pub, Chinese Restaurant, shops and round the corner from the distillery itself. The accommodation is excellent, high standards of finish and cleanliness. Would be back... More
