“Great central location”
Very happy at Nia Roo. It had everything. Right beside the distillery which emits a gentle hum and a fabulous aroma. Jean left whisky and shortbread for us - much appreciated. Seriously convenient location. Recommended.

“Cosy, central, welcoming pet friendly cottage.”
This was so central and accessible within maybe a minute of walking distance to Bowmore Distillery and then to the beach. There are a fantastic selection of great food and drinks available locally whether you want to enjoy a takeaway. or sit in at one of the local fab hotel restaurants with great cuisine. An immaculate, cosy welcoming cottage hosts a book onsite from the owner that shouldn’t be overlooked. This was really helpful with with lots or guidance and recommendations for exploring and making the most of a visit to Islay. For those visiting distilleries and ports, I suggest you plan in travel time or else book local taxis in advance to make the most of your visit. Every single tour guide provided a knowledgeable and unique experience. Everyone we met was so friendly and welcomed us to this humbling beautiful island. Jim the taxi driver - a great character. I’ll definitely be back and would happily book and use this great accommodation again!

“Cosy cottage - perfect home from home”
Location was terrific. Walking distance from shops and directly opposite the distillery. Close to start of the path for a walk around the battery which starts next to the distillery and goes along the shore. Easy to get to all other parts of the island. Cottage warm and comfortable with a fully enclosed garden which was perfect for our dogs. Very friendly neighbours. We had a great stay despite it being in Winter!
