The Island of Islay

 

Islay has just about everything you could want: Unrivalled pristine sandy beaches.There are 7 malt whisky distilleries (and another on Jura), most with superb visitor centres. Golfers will not be disappointed as the Machrie Links provide a world class 18 hole experience with superb scenery as an added bonus.

 

There are 80 regular species of wild birds, 3 kinds of deer, otters, seals, wild flowers and plants in abundance ... the list goes on. The terrain is ideal for cycling as the roads are quiet and the hills rolling.
