Good Hotel Guide Review
The hotel experts at the Good Hotel Guide
On the Islay Estate at the heart of an Inner Hebrides island famed for its malt whiskies, this stone-built Victorian hotel in 'glorious gardens' sits amid lochs, deserted beaches, and hills roamed by red and roe deer. Bedrooms in contemporary style have a restful palette. You can dine in Katie's Bar, with its brightly coloured bucket chairs and log fire, or in the restaurant, on home-grown produce, estate game, lamb and beef, locally landed fish and shellfish – maybe Loch Gruinart oysters and 'great venison'. Service is 'friendly, courteous and professional'. The estate is a popular destination for shooting and fishing folk, while walkers can pick up trails nearby. (Katherine E Putnam)
