ISLAY

The queen of the inner Hebrides

Just off the Atlantic west coast of Scotland, Islay’s natural landscape, sandy beaches and rugged coastline have been shaped by the Scottish elements.

From fatbiking the expanses of ‘Big Strand’ beach, to sunset boat trips to see some of the Hebridean wildlife featured in Attenborough’s Wild Isles series.

Whisky tastings and visits at nine different whisky distilleries, to exploring the island by tuk-tuk. Expert golf tuition, to watching the hares from the dune deck. Coast path hiking and electric biking, to taking in The Machrie’s extensive art collection.

Memorable new experiences, as well as wild swimming, stargazing, marshmallow-toasting and firepit cocktails all await…
