Renta de alojamientos vacacionales con chimenea en Islay

The Black House was perfect for our weekend on Islay. It was a great home base location for exploring all of the island. The house had everything we needed and has the most amazing views. We would definitely stay here again!

Rona and Alasdair were FANTASTIC hosts, and the house was the perfect place for a retreat with friends. Rona and Alasdair continually communicated with us, including when we had a small heating issue (not their fault but the result of a massive storm on the island), and they made us feel at ease in their home by reaching solutions ridiculously quickly. The house is far enough outside the village of Port Ellen to provide privacy and close enough to walk (20min). The views to the bay, big kitchen table for group meals, and wood-burning fireplace made for a 50th birthday experience me and my friends will not soon forget. All too often Airbnb accommodations are purely transactional - a place for a fee. This is NOT the case with Rona and Alasdiar's place: We all felt welcomed and at home. If you want a retreat with friends, this is a perfect place on Islay.

So pleased we found this lovely home in a very quiet and remote location on the island. Refurbished to a high standard and fully equipped with everything we needed. Would definitely recommend if you would like to get away from on the hussle and bussle of everyday life.

This is the third time my sister and I have stayed here...that says it all. We will be back.

Perfect break on a special island. Comfortable place to stay. We loved the swallows!

Beautiful quiet setting and base to explore the area. We loved exploring by kayak and being greeted by seals every morning. Simon’s place was super comfortable, clean and well equipped. We’d love to return.

Arguably the best location on the island in terms of accessibility - 5 minute walk from the ferry, absolutely fantastic shop and the nook chippie right next door, 5 minute walk to the cafe, 2 minute walk to the boathouse and 5 minute walk to a lovely little beach to let the dogs run around and explore. As we stayed off season we were aware that the local amenities were on reduced hours or closed for the winter but it didn’t impact our time on Gigha as there is plenty to see and do. Highly recommend a dip in the sea at the twin beaches! Nicola was available for all our queries and responded immediately to our messages and calls - highly recommend this lovely home. It was also lovely to be greeted with some local milk and tablet and the dogs were not forgotten either with treats provided to welcome them also. Thanks, we will be back!

If you are looking for a place on the great Isle of Islay this is it! Not too far away and just enough to have a relaxing time. Was here for 3 nights and place was perfect for short morning drives to Portnahaven, Port Ellen, Bowmore. Small little pubs/restaurants were perfect. Just make sure to book a reservation if you do look to eat. Got a chance to visit 6 distilleries while on the island. Great spot, family loved and and drinking coffee every morning or a wee dram every night watching the lighthouse was amazing…we will look to be back

Excellent cottage absolutely stunning inside and had everything you could possibly need

Graham, what a little gem your flat is. Tremendous value for money, cosy and comfortable, it’s an ideal spot for exploring the sights of Mid Argyll. We were overwhelmed by your generosity providing everything that we needed. (I have been to previous places that ration matches & firefighters!). Plenty of loo paper, towels, dishwasher tablets, cleaning products, towels …..the list goes on. Thanks again, we loved it.

Great accommodations for a reasonable price with a fantastic view

We throughly enjoyed our stay in the flat! The building is lovely with a beautiful view at the back. The location was ideal and centrally located for travelling all around the island.

another lovely stay here - very peaceful and quiet, perfect place to unwind and relax. Hosts are very welcoming and friendly.
