"Superb: location, staff, room, meals!"

"The cottage had everything we needed to be self sufficient for the week. I particularly loved the location as it was away from noise and distractions but only 10 minutes by car to Port Charlotte. Myself and my two dogs loved walking down to the beach to watch the wild ocean waves and walk over the hills. We didn't enjoy the best weather with lots of rain and high winds but we were cosy in the cottage. I do intend to return next year."

"Great hotel!"

"Amazing stay we had here, the history of building and interior is wonderful and very spacious. The bedroom and bathroom is perfect very spacious. They staff are wonderful very friendly, polite and accommodating. Defiantly worth every penny spent. "

"If you're already looking at the Island Bear for your trip to Islay then I suggest you just go ahead and book it if you can. This is a spotless, modern looking B&B right in the heart of Bowmore. I doubt it took us 5 minutes to walk anywhere in the village with all the restaurants and shops extremely close by. Really comfy bed, great shower/bath and nothing lacking in terms of facilities. What makes this B&B though are the hosts, Fiona and Duncan. We only ever really had the pleasure of speaking to them during breakfast but it made a great start to our day as they both took a lot of time to chat to us and talk about Bowmore and the island in particular. They were able to answer any questions we had. As well as all that the breakfasts were superb and more than enough to fuel a morning's adventuring. There was a problem with the ferries while we were there and their willingness to go above and beyond to help us out if needed was so appreciated. Thank you to you both and we hope to see you again soon. Billy & Marjorie"

"We had a fantastic stay on Islay at Glenegedale. Well located and beautifully maintained accommodation with excellent breakfast and if you opt for evening meals you won't be disappointed. A great all round stay and great hosting by Emma and Graeme. We would highly recommend this property."

"great stay, small room but had everything you needed in it. shower temp was a bit iffy, freezing water 1 min and boiling the next, good pressure through! check in was unsual as no instructions of what to do. i stood at the front door chapping but no one answered. passer by told me keys are on the table and just to walk in which there was. They possibly own the pizza place across the road... THIS IS A MUST. food is tremendous! bottles of beer very expensive at £4.95 but the food is unreal!"

"Absolutely fabulous stay, stayed in the bowmore suite which was amazing, huge room with fabulous views of the bay and also to Jura Breakfast served to the room due to covid and was delicious. Shame we had to leave early on our second day but did have cereal in the room as well as teas , juices etc Welcomed with a dram of whiskey Very friendly host Andrew who sent us information and recommendations about the island prior to check in so we could ensure we made bookings for restaurants and distillaries due to reduced covid capacity Would definately stay again if returning to Islay "
