Lovely little holiday home in Bruichladdich
Located within view of the Bruichladdich Distillery, at the end of a small Cul de sac with a nice garden and great views.
Amenities were as advertised, clean, and generally very well equipped.
Perfect bolthole for our short Islay whisky trip for our group of 4 friends.
A touch on the small side for 4 large men sharing rooms, but it worked and everything went very smoothly.
Key collection was simple, TV, Cooker, Fridge etc... all in working order. A nice welcome pack explained some local attractions.
All in all, a great little holiday home for a trip to Islay!
