Cragabus Byres are situated amongst the stunning scenery of the Oa region on Islay, two and a half miles from the friendly village of Port Ellen on the southern tip of the island and two and a half miles from the American Monument. Islay is just a plane ride away from Glasgow or, alternatively, a ferry journey from Kennacraig on the Mull of Kintyre peninsula.
For many people, Islay offers the ideal holiday destination: lovely, quiet beaches for relaxing and building sand-sculptures or busy whisky tours and drammin’ with the locals; bird-watching in the many habitats around the island or water-sports and wildlife boat trips along the scenic coastal waters; and if you enjoy a festival or two, Islay has many to offer throughout the year from the annual Feis Ile (Festival of Malt and Music) in May to the Book Festival in October.
