Glenegedale House feels like home. I've been fortunate to travel quite a bit, throughout the US and UK especially, and there is nowhere else I'd rather stay than here with Graeme and Emma. No one will work harder to make sure you have an incredible visit to Islay--helping with dinner arrangements, suggesting sites to visit, recommending the best distillery tours, and more. My wife and I stayed with them in May 2023, but only for one night, which was not enough, so we were just back again for four more in October 2024. It is not an exaggeration to say that we travelled back to Scotland so soon in large part for the breakfast at Glenegedale House. The porridge is life-affirming. You will not regret booking a visit to Islay, and in particular, a stay at Glenegedale House. We can't wait to be back there again.

Get dinner at Glenegedale House as many nights as it is offered during your stay. Take advantage of Emma's comprehensive knowledge of Islay and her seemingly endless supply of connections and resources. Do not pass on the porridge at breakfast. Do not ask for just a small bowl of porridge.

Would Recommend: Yes

Most comfortable , particularly the communal areas and the food is superb and served in quantity.

Go for the seafood platter. So delicious. The duvets are rather warm but can be reduced to avoid overheating - just ask Emma or Graham.

Exceptional hospitality!! Exceptional food! Exceptional knowledge of the area. I believe Emma knows everyone on the island. She saved us when we had an unexpected driver issue. You simply must stay at the Glenegedale House or miss a lifetime experience.

If I had to change anything, I would take the ferry rather than fly. Make sure your driver is arranged to drive in the evening.

From warm welcome with cup of tea and home made cake through outstanding dinner created from locally sourced ingredients, comfortable bed, and amazing breakfast with not a prepacked cereal in sight, Emma and Graeme's Glenegadale House lived up to our high expectations.

Allow plenty of time for a relaxed breakfast to savour all the home preserved fruits and perhaps the porridge with a tot of Laphroaig on top.

Would Recommend: Yes

Absolutely superb! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Emma and Graeme’s lovely property. So peaceful with stunning views. The attention to detail of the hosts is to perfection. They were also very kind and helpful with everything we asked of them. When you wake up in the morning you will be treated to a 5⭐️ breakfast! So delicious! Thank you Graeme and Emma for our stay with you and the memories we now have of your lovely property.

Do not look elsewhere! You will not regret staying at this amazing property. You will love it! If you are from the USA, be sure to go to the American monument on the island. It will touch your hearts. We hope you enjoy Isle of Islay as much as we did!

Loved staying at Glenegedale House. The proprietors were lovely and ensured we enjoyed our stay. The food they offered for breakfast was top notch. And the dinner menu was just as tasty as you could get in other restaurants on the island. The seafood platter is a must if you stay. So fresh and cooked to perfection. Highly recommend booking their quiet, centrally located B&B.

Would Recommend: Yes

6th September 2024:

An absolutely incredible experience. A gorgeous guest house, with old world charm and the most welcoming and lovely hosts. This felt like stepping back in time with the level of service, the exquisite food and the convivial atmosphere, being able to chat with other guests (if you wanted to) with a few drinks in the lounge after dinner. The food is showstopping, and everything is prepared fresh and with love. Never had a better muffin or indeed porridge (with a secret ingredient)! The seafood was caught fresh that day and dinner was a truly special experience. Exemplary on every level, thank you so much to Emma and Graeme for embodying the true spirit of hospitality. Also greatly appreciated the comprehensive advice and recommendations on local activities.

Do not hesitate to request the seafood platter (in advance). I have never had a seafood meal this fresh and combined with the home baked breads and oatcakes, it was just sensational.

Emma and Graeme put their heart and sole into every aspect of Glenegedale House. Beautifully appointed with every possible detail covered. Outstanding food and drinks, especially if you are a whisky or gin lover. The Seafood platter , literally caught a few hours before it is presented to you , is something everyone should savour. Live your best life, stay and embrace everything that Glenegedale offers.

Book early as extremely busy and I don't want you to be disappointed and miss out on a wonderful experience !

29th August 2024:

Absolutely the best stay I have had in years, I travel rather extensively and I enjoyed my time at Glenegedale more than I have in a long time. Thank you for putting up with all the questions, the attention to detail, the amazing food, the amazing location, all the helpful insights. We were overwhelmed with just the pleasure of staying at the location.

The location is five minutes away from the airport, but is absolutely quiet. You can pick up the car at the airport or you can catch the bus as it comes through. You must have the resplendent breakfast everyday and definitely stay for the dinners. They are fantastic and worth every penny. They have a great list of drinks / whiskeys / wines and can help you select something nice. It was enjoyable chatting with other travelers whilst sipping on something. This place is a required stay, between its location, food, hospitality, food, appointments, food, drinks, and lastly, the outstanding food. Don’t forget the food … I would move in if allowed. Stay here on Islay before you think of another location. Be courteous to your hosts they work their fingers to the bone maintaining the gorgeous facility and accommodating all of us travelers. They are the best. Keep in mind it is just the two of them working 24/7 for you and communicate your needs but also be responsible for yourself and your actions on property. We can not express our happiness enough with finding and staying with them on Islay.

Would Recommend: Yes

29th August 2024:

Imagine you are living in a waterfront mansion, spotlessly clean and perfectly maintained, yet you never see anyone doing these mundane tasks. You are cheerfully greeted each morning with a beautiful breakfast served impeccably on gorgeous china and crystal. Yet, the feeling is warm, like you came home for Christmas and everyone is so happy to see you. The Glenegedale House is a place you will not want to leave!

Do ask Emma and Graeme for their advice and recommendations on restaurants, which ferries to book and when, historic sites in the area, etc. They are extremely knowledgeable and helpful and also very responsive via email before you arrive. Enjoy Islay!

Would Recommend: Yes

20th August 2024:

A class act!! 5 stars in every respect. Every detail has been well thought out, from room and bathroom amenities including thick large towels to comfortable sitting rooms with an extensive menu of pre dinner drinks, a superior breakfast including a variety of fresh fruit, stewed fruit, homemade bread and muffins and cooked to order breakfast options. Loved the seafood platter for dinner too!

The seafood platter is a must. Brimming with locally caught seafood including langoustines, scallops, lobster, crab as well as smoked salmon and smoked trout pate.

Would Recommend: Yes

7th August 2024:

This is the best B&B I’ve ever stayed in. Indeed the quality of food, accommodation and service surpasses many 5 star hotels I’ve stayed in. I’ve never had a breakfast of such a high quality in the UK ever. Dinners were fabulous too.

The location of the property is within walking distance of the airport so no need to hire a car. Taxis are easily available on the island. Overall Glenegedale offers a quiet place to relax, eat and sleep well far from the madness of the world. After a day exploring the island a gin and tonic watching some of the best sunsets you’ll ever see will be the perfect end to any day!

Would Recommend: Yes

7th August 2024:

We had a wonderful stay at Glenegedale….only sorry we could only stay 3 nights as it is so popular! Everything was first class and Emma and Graeme were so accommodating to our extended family too.

Make sure you sample the evening meals as they are outstanding!!! Breakfast was beautiful with so many exquisite touches. Too many to mention. Thoroughly recommend to visitors to Islay.

We loved our stay at Glenegedale House and meeting the owners Emma and Graeme. They provided us with a wonderful place to stay and great food and drinks to enjoy. They helped me plan out our vacation while on Islay even before we got there and then helped sort out sone other interests when we arrived. The seafood dinner that we had was absolutely amazing!!!

Stay at Glenegedale House or at least plan to have a meal here. A car is really necessary to get around the island and see what each end has to offer. Reserve at each place you want to eat at for dinner, as they book up quickly. Make sure to check the ferry schedule often, as it will change or cancel a ferry with very little notice.

Would Recommend: Yes

We spent three nights at Glenegedale House in July 2024. Emma and Graeme were engaging hosts who made every effort to make our stay memorable. They did so by: - Creating friendly environment to chat and have a drink with them and other guests; - Sharing their experiences in living on Islay; - Providing information to help us explore Islay; - Excellent meals that emphasized local foods; - Proactive communications when our flight was canceled and we came to Islay by taxi/ferry; and - Comfortable and cozy room. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Rob and Ruth

Glenegedale House is across the street from the airport. Very convenient for rental car pick up. We very much enjoyed our two dinners at Glenegedale House.

First class accommodations and service. If you get a chance to visit, you will not be disappointed. Emma and her family made our visit special. Many thanks

Only one tip to offer. Make your car or bus plans in advance. Without Emma’s help and the kindness of John Macintyre we might have been stranded.

Would Recommend: Yes

10th July 2024:

Excellent accommodation with a superb breakfast of fresh food, which lasts one all day. An excellent dinner on the night we ate in, with too much food to finish.

Ask for a blanket as the house is very warm at night, if you have difficulty sleeping in a warm room. Arrive into Islay by air and hire a car as Glendale House is directly opposite the airport. No noise issues.

Would Recommend: Yes

10th July 2024:

The breakfast was wonderful! Also it was great to have so many different whiskies available to try while staying at the Glenegedale House

Glenegedale House is the perfect place to stay if you're looking at staying on Islay. Emma was absolutely accommodating with helping set up taxis, etc. The breakfast provided ALONE would be a reason to stay here since it's a fantastic way to start a day of touring Islay. If we ever return to Islay, and trust me, we want to, we'd be staying here again.

Would Recommend: Yes

17th June 2024:

We had a wonderful stay at Glenegedale House. Everything was perfect and we felt so welcomed. Dinner was delicious and such a lovely place to relax with a post dinner dram. We will definitely return and cannot thank Emma and Graeme enough for their hospitality.

We loved the situation of Glenegedale and found it easy to visit the island. Would recommend having dinner at Glenegedale and enjoy a wee dram from the vast choice before or after dinner. Fantastic friendly hosts.

Would Recommend: Yes

Emma and Graeme were excellent hosts

EV charging is a major challenge on Islay because all but one of the chargers on the charging apps were out of order, and had been for some time.

Glenegedale House on the stunning isle of Islay is an absolute gem that exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm hospitality and felt instantly at home. The owners, Emma and Graeme, are the most gracious hosts, always ready with a friendly smile and eager to ensure their guests have a wonderful stay. The location of Glenegedale House is perfect, situated centrally on the island, making it an ideal base for exploring all that Islay has to offer. Whether you're interested in visiting the renowned whisky distilleries, hiking through the breathtaking landscapes, or simply relaxing on the beautiful beaches, Glenegedale House is conveniently located to suit all your needs. The accommodations are top-notch, with beautifully appointed rooms that are both comfortable and stylish. The bed was comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep after a day of exploring the island. One of the highlights of my stay at Glenegedale House was the amazing food. Graeme is a fantastic chef who takes pride in using fresh, locally sourced ingredients to create culinary delights that showcase the best of Islay's produce. The hearty breakfasts were a masterpiece that left me eagerly anticipating the next meal.

Book the distilleries tours in advance. They sell out quickly. Wear layers, its often cold and rainy even in summer.

Our stay was a delightful experience, from beginning to end. Glenegedale House is run with superb attention to details, from the flowers in the foyer, to the set up of our breakfast and dinner table, and the lovely country house atmosphere in the common areas. The room we booked was spacious and beautifully decorated. The food is a chapter apart: delicious and served in a setting that makes you want to stay until later, with the addition of a wonderful soundtrack. It was a pleasure to chat with Emma (when she could spare a few minutes). She knows a lot about the island, and we enjoyed hearing about it. The location is very convenient, especially if you’re flying in. So, thank you Emma and Graeme for such a lovely experience!

Book in advance. If you can, hire a car. And don’t miss the seafood platter and the oat cakes!

Make sure to book dinner here as well, it is outstanding. Ask about things to do on Islay and you'll get a list with absolute wonderful recommendation for this beautiful Island. Enjoy their Whisky and Gin menu in the cosy sitting rooms. Don't waste any thought on the airport next door, you'll never realise it is there.

A return visit to Glenegedale and it more than lived up to our memories. Graeme and Emma are perfect hosts; the warmth of their welcome is matched by faultless hospitality. Attention to detail was obvious in all aspects of our stay : the water flask and cups on the bedroom were both elegant and practical; delicious chocolates provide a pre-sleep treat following a splendid dinner. Breakfast is a highlight with Graeme’s special porridge (if you know, you know) laced with Laphroaig providing a good base for sampling Islay’s whiskies. There is a range of imaginatively spiced fruit compotes. The quality of produce in the cooked elements of the breakfast is obvious. A stay at Glenegedale House is a wonderful experience through Graeme and Emma’s ability to combine a consummately professional approach with a knack of making guests feel at home, comfortable and relaxed from the moment of arrival. We can’t wait to return -thank you!

Have the porridge!

Would Recommend: Yes

22nd May 2024:

More than a week since our arrival at Glenegedale House - time flies when you are having fun. From the lovely surprise welcome of chocolate brownies and coffee, when our flight landed to the seamless breakfast service to accommodate our early departure four days later, we were superbly looked after. Our room was perfectly clean and thoughtfully decorated (lovely thistle wallpaper) which good storage space to accommodate clothes for all weathers, even though we didn't need the adverse weather gear we had packed. The dinner menu supplied by Emma a few days before our arrived was very tempting for each night, but as we wanted to explore the island and other eating options, we only chose one night. The meal was outstanding. Really well presented, fabulously cooked and just a little too much - in a good way. Choices over the week ranged from sea bass to local venison, with varied sides. I'd have loved to have eaten on other evenings really. The aromas every evening were memorable. Pre dinner drinks are served in the lounge and a very extensive list is available. We tried our best and sampled local beer, gin and of course whisky. We also had some French wines. Breakfast is lovely - exciting actually. Graeme/Emma are great hosts - enjoy

Room Two has a good view of the Atlantic Ocean, good sized shower and room for all your 'stuff'. If you need a taxi for evenings out and know when/where you are going, book early. A few of the companies we tried were fully booked. The airport is only a five minute walk from Glenegedale House, so you won't need your hire car on the morning of your departure, if you can manage your luggage. Local buses were good for avoiding any drink/drive issues when you fancy the 'three distilleries path'. This is a welcoming and, we found, informal B&B/Guest House, so my final tip is - relax and let Graeme and Emma spoil you.

Would Recommend: Yes

20th May 2024:

Thanks a lot for this lovely stay. Your hotel is very cosy, nicely decorated and we could feel in every detail the love and dedication you put in your family business.

Perfect location just a very short walk from the airport, middle of the island and very well suitable for trips all over the island. Very authentic, we recommend!

Would Recommend: Yes

16th May 2024:

Best bed and breakfast at which I have stayed. Really a mini hotel given that a magnificent dinner is available every evening except Sunday. Such a personal service in a comfortable house.

Book early since Glenegedale is in such great demand. Would not normally recommend a facility that is across the road from an airport but we were never aware of the two incoming and outgoing flights a day. I would even consider flying to Islay just to stay here for a few days! That said, you probably need a car (or bike if brave) to travel from the ferry and to explore wonderful Islay. Do not turn down dinner and the seafood platter must is compulsory on one evening if it is available!

Would Recommend: Yes

15th May 2024:

We had a really nice overnight stay. The accommodations are comfortable and absoultely lovely. Emma was very friendly and welcoming. She prepared the most delicious and elegant breakfast. Highly recommended.

Leave enough time to enjoy breakfast. You will not be sorry. Ask Emma to instruct you on how to operate the shower controls as it's a bit tricky for most.

Would Recommend: Yes

15th May 2024:

Just perfect. Best breakfast options we've ever seen anywhere. Dinner such a fine experience with Emma & Graham's creativity! Thanks for helping us out when a reservation failed.

Do not be afraid of the airport nearby :-)

Nestled between Port Ellen and Bowmore on the Isle of Islay, Glenegedale House is a lovely B&B set within a beautifully maintained old building. With just four rooms, the atmosphere is intimate and inviting. Each stay feels personalized and exclusive, adding to the charm that draws us back year over year - 2025 has already been booked! Owners Emma and Graeme strike the perfect balance between luxury accommodation and a family-style welcome. It's a place where you are pampered yet completely at ease—a rare find in the world of travel. One of the highlights is undoubtedly the food. Every morning, we are treated to a fantastic spread of freshly made dishes with local ingredients taking center stage. Several nights a week, the option to partake in a three-course dinner is available, and it is an experience not to be missed. The common area in the basement, with its plush sofas and tasteful decor, provides a delightful space to relax and mingle with other guests, often leading to interesting conversations over a G&T or Whisky from the extensive drinks menu. Here's to feeling at home while being pampered in true luxury!

Keep in mind that Islay is a small, remote island and Glenegedale House a small, family-owned B&B. You can expect perfect hospitality, but no 24/7 concierge or services only large hotel chains can provide.

This is a gem in the western isles. The entire experience has both been carefully thought through and yet is spontaneous when you are in their care, for care is what you are offered from arrival till departure and at all points in between. If, like us, you enjoy island exploring, make sure you plan a stop here. We have a list of new places to visit but Glenegedale arrests that, for we keep going back and the list will just have to wait.

Book in advance!

We recently stayed at Glenegedale House and couldn’t have been happier with our experience. From the moment we arrived from Australia, the hosts were incredibly welcoming, offering detailed recommendations and tips that enhanced our visit. The room was beautifully appointed, featuring plush linens and soft towels, ensuring a comfortable stay. The food was a standout, with the seafood platter being particularly memorable. It was served with an interesting history of each item and details on how it was prepared, adding a unique touch to our dining experience. The hosts’ recommendations for gin and whiskey were spot on, complementing our evenings spent playing games in the cosy parlour. The setting was picturesque, complete with stunning ocean views and delightful sightings of newborn lambs. This place combines the beauty of Islay with exceptional hospitality and fine dining, making it a must-visit destination. Highly recommended!

Make sure you ask Emma for gin recommendations and tips on where to go in Isaly - she is awesome!

A Master Class in 5 Star Scottish Hospitality From the delicious cakes on arrival to the pre dinner Islay Gin served in their beautiful drawing room - the very essence of Glenegedale House is about making your stay perfect. My husband and I stayed for 4 nights in April 2024 after booking based on the many glowing reviews found online. We had read about the amazing breakfast and expected something special. Well special doesn’t come close to the love and pure hard work Emma and Graeme put into their breakfasts. Home poached fruits served in crystal bowls, highly addictive granola made by Emma and then the most delicious cooked options. Including eggs from their hens and Scottish smoked salmon at its finest. The best breakfast I have ever eaten. Just brilliant. The evening meal cooked by this amazing couple is another triumph. Emma can tell you exactly who on the Island grew the vegetables and the names of the fishermen who caught your scallops!! 3 courses of delicious food cooked with love - fabulous wine list as well!! Emma and Graeme work so hard and both should be applauded for all they do for this magical Island. Whilst I could write lots more, the app doesn’t allow it!! In summary though a truly 5 star experience

If you can - contact Emma and Graeme before you travel as their knowledge of Islay is extensive and all the recommendations they gave us were just brilliant. Book any whisky tours/ boat trips in advance as they are very popular.

Sometimes you know about a place when you walk in. There’s a sixth sense that lets you know you’ll be happy, comfortable and relaxed. That’s how it felt during our entire stay. Perfectly positioned to explore and our room was gorgeous and we had a sublime sea view. We had dinner on our first night. It was perhaps one of the best meals I’ve ever eaten. Great food, cooked well and served in style with warm service. Magical. But even better than dinner was breakfast. Perfect porridge. Dredges of brown sugar. Doused in cream and Laphroaig. Islay smoked salmon and eggs from their own flock. Haggis, black pudding and all the trimmings. Perfectly poached fruit. I’d eat that breakfast every day for the rest of my life and I’d be a very happy (and much rounder) man. If you’re a whisky lover, just bathe in what you’ll find: drams that you won’t see elsewhere, and even if you could you wouldn’t find a better place to enjoy them. But it’s not the things that make a place, it’s the people. Graeme and Emma’s hospitality heritage shone from beginning to end. We genuinely felt like we were at home during our entire stay. If you ever get a chance to visit, you have to stay here. Once wasn’t enough. We’re already thinking about coming back.

The decoration of the entire B&B is fantastic, and also the breakfast and the dinner is very very good. You should try the Graemes Porridge since that is very very nice.

We traveled across Scotland for over 3 weeks, and Glenegedale was our favorite stay! Thank you, Emma and Graeme, for giving us the most beautiful memories that will last for our lifetimes. Your pre-arrival communications assured us our upcoming stay was in the best hands…and upon arriving, we were immediately impressed by your outstanding accommodations, the presentation and deliciousness of each meal, and your Islay insights for all our local day trips…simply, world class! Glenegedale House is such a cozy, inviting house, exceptionally well-appointed throughout, including the wonderful bedrooms that inspired us with a sense of tranquility. You are both excellent chefs and each meal was a culinary masterpiece. Thank you for incorporating fresh-caught seafood, other local foods, and Islay’s amber elixirs into an amazing experience. Your knowledge of Islay and your relationships across the island, also added to our visits to historic sites, distilleries, and craft shops. You’ve given us a much better appreciation for the island and the people of Islay. This was an extraordinary experience. We give Glenegedale House our highest recommendation and will definitely be back to see you as soon as possible.

Be prepared to enjoy a wonderful experience, where Glenegedale provides an Islay home away from home. Glenegedale will accentuate the stunning natural beauty of Islay, and Graham and Emma make each guest feel extra special. Graham has a special Islay porridge you must try. And, you’ll also want to see about getting the seafood platter that included scallops someone on Islay might dive for that day... Also, take advantage of their vast knowledge of all Islay has to offer. Their insights and recommendations paid big dividends for our day trips.

Such a welcoming and well run place to stay. Lovely comfortable rooms, exceptional food....breakfast is a hilight of the day and the seafood platter (pre order only) is an experience not to be missed. Great location. Fantastic hosts with such a depth of knowledge about the island it was easy to decide what to do each day whether walking, sightseeing or distillery visiting.

It's an amazing, small island but you do need to organise how you are going to get around before you arrive if not in your own car/hire car.

Your home is lovely and comfortable at the same time. Much attention placed upon details of servicing your guests. Great communication along the way.

And you’ll never have a more delicious breakfast in your life. Emma and Graeme are lovely, helpful and absolute pros at running this gem of a b&b. To not stay here when on Islay, would be to miss out on something special.

Dont take any more time looking at other places, or reading other reviews. Glenegedale House is the real deal, easy to get to from the airport, a 5 minute walk! Peaceful and quiet.

Our stay at Glenegedale House was a real highlight of a two week trip in Europe. The accommodations are immaculate, the food was amazing and we appreciated the emphasis on supporting the local economy. All our communications were professional yet friendly. It is so refreshing to stay at a place where you know the proprietors really put forth the effort to make a stay enjoyable. I left wishing I had booked a longer stay.

If you are visiting Islay, The Glenegedale House is a great choice for lodging during your stay. The house and common areas are beautiful and the rooms are comfortable, quiet and well appointed. The food is delicious and the hospitality is top notch. We found the location convenient, just a short drive to all the points of interest on our trip, and the owners are a great resource for tips and information. The Glenegedale House deserves all of those 5 star reviews you will find on travel sites.

We were thrilled to stay at the Glenegedale House for 5 nights. It exceeded our expectations from beginning to end. The breakfast menu was amazing and the evening meal options were also incredible. The quality and care that went into preparing the food was impeccable and service fantastic. Overall there was a wonderful sense of calm at the House and the hospitality had just the right balance of feeling cared for, and also being left alone. The hosts were there when we needed them and subtle in their presence when we just wanted to be quiet and stare out the window. We felt 'at home'. It was an exceptionally hot week on Islay so the only thing we could have used would be a fan (I guess we never asked). Thank you for the stay; the memories will last forever.

The airport is very close so handy if you're coming in by air. Port Ellen is also a short drive if you're coming in by ferry. We would highly the Glenegedale House for a peaceful stay on Islay.

On behalf of my friends and I, I would like to thank you both Graeme and Emma for a most wonderful few days and a truly unforgettable trip. I am grateful for all the tips and advice (and fascinating stories!!) which made a big difference to the overall experience at Islay. You were attentive yet not overbearing, it was very much like home from home which I loved and I felt relaxed and welcomed immediately. The food was the best I have tasted for a long time, the seafood platter an absolute highlight for us all. I just wished I was able to have sampled the cheese and charcuterie platters you currently have showcased on your website which sadly are no more! We will for sure be returning to Islay and Glenegedale House and would not hesitate in recommending this to our friends and family. I wish you both all the very best and thank you again. Warm regards, Roland.

Graeme & Emma were absolutely the loveliest hosts. Our room was beautiful, with decor that tied the old world feel of the home, with the modern comforts of today. The bathroom was equipped with all the little amenities needed for a weekend away. Our bed was so comfortable and the duvet was the perfect combination to suit the chill of the evening. Katia' and Chris recommended this location and will be visiting again soon.

Absolutely wake up for breakfast. The porridge w/ fresh fruit, brown sugar, cream and a splash of Laphroaig along with other freshly prepared offerings (Poached egg, smoked salmon, hollandaise over crisp toast..) are just what is required to begin your day on Islay. Emma even sent each guest with couple fresh muffins, which we ate in between our adventures scotch tastings.

13th April 2023:

We spent a wonderful long weekend on Islay enjoying the local culture, nature and produce, as well as some great hospitality from Emma and Graeme at Glenegedale House. The house is a comfy and relaxed place to stay with really outstanding breakfasts and evening meals featuring local and regional produce, perfectly cooked and presented. Our bedroom and ensuite was compact - in a cosy farmhouse sort of way - with a good-sized comfortable bed. The location was perfect for us, mid-way between Port Ellen (Laphroaig, Lagavulin, Ardbeg) and Bowmore, and just a short walk from airport arrivals across a slightly unusual airport feature - a cattle grid :). It must be the quietest, loveliest walk-from-the-airport accommodation in the world. We walked, taxied and bussed the island and were blessed with some great weather. Emma and Graeme were the perfect hosts, happy to share their local knowledge with us and make the most of our short stay. It's a family-run business and they must work pretty tirelessly in the background to make things this serene for guests. Many thanks! Michael and Julia

Our trip worked fine without a car - keep in mind there are no buses on Sundays, and a little notice works best when looking for a taxi, Mayfair this isn't :). If we were staying longer we'd have hired a car for a day or two to bring some other parts of the island into easier reach. The short Logan Air flight from / to Glasgow was a great way to get here, with some lovely views of the Firth of Clyde on the way home.

Words are not enough to describe how absolutely incredible our stay was at Glenegadale House! Emma went above and beyond to help us find transportation to Islay when there was an airline strike. On our arrival we were immediately welcomed like family and provided the yummiest home baked goods to take on our explorations of Islay. Do yourself a favor and get the fresh seafood dinner! This incredible feast is spectacularly prepared by Graeme, a master chef! And breakfast is a special treat. We felt like we were royalty for the entire stay as everything was the highest of quality. Our room was extremely comfortable and beautifully decorated like the rest of the house. Emma and Graeme are the best hosts and will be sure to make sure that you are well cared for during your stay. We were sad to leave and felt as if we had left family behind. It is no wonder how they have repeat guests.

Location is conveniently located across from the airport.
