Ineraval Farmhouse

Ineraval Farmhouse Ineraval is a two storey, 2-bedroom farmhouse situated at the tranquil heart of The Oa peninsula, 5 miles from the village of Port Ellen.

Ineraval Farmhouse is situated in a remote and beautiful part of the Oa peninsula. Starting from the village of Port Ellen, you take the Oa Road (single track) for four miles. You then follow a further 1.8 miles of farm track. It takes a little effort, but few who make the journey doubt that it is worth it! The farmhouse has been renovated and finished to a high standard. Upstairs it has two bedro

oms (one double and one twin) and a shower room. At the back of the house downstairs it has a well-equipped modern kitchen, (with electric cooker, dish-washer, washing-machine and micro-wave oven); a large bathroom (with bath and separate shower cubicle); a handy utility area for coats and boots etc inside the back door. At the front it has a small porch at the front door, opening into the light and airy open plan living and dining areas, which are separated by a feature wooden staircase leading to the first floor. The living area has a wood-burning stove and satellite television as well as some books and games. The house has spectacular views towards the Mull of Kintyre and the Antrim Coast. It is decorated with original artwork by Mina Carmichael and other Islay artists. There is electric heating throughout the house. After a day out walking the hills, exploring the beaches or fishing the lochs you can settle down in front of an open fire and enjoy one of the famous Islay single malt whiskies. For a combination of peace and comfort you will not find anywhere like it. There is ample parking and a handy shed for storage of bikes and equipment, with a table tennis table. A small welcome pack of grocery essentials is provided on your arrival as is some firewood (or peat if available) for the stove. Bed linen and towels are included. Our usual let is Saturday to Saturday. Well-behaved dogs are welcome although for this an extra deposit is required.

Not sure that I would want to do this but, if I did, these are absolutely the people with whom I would do it.

Forbes Magazine seems to have been quite impressed by the Islay Rum Distillery.

Confession time - I have never yet done the tour so I cannot vouch for it myself. If you visit the distillery while staying at Ineraval (or anywhere else come to that!) then let us have your impressions of it please. In the meantime I shall try to carve out time to do it for myself.

As the article says, the building used to be home to Hastie’s Lemonade Factory - back in the day when Scotland had scores of small local businesses producing soft drinks and before Coca Cola ruled the world. The product was sensational. At least, that is how I remember it!

Islay's first rum distillery, born in an old lemonade factory, crafts unique rums, blending traditional Scotch heritage with innovative distilling.

It feels like winter may be on the way out in The Oa so we crank the machinery into gear and start to get ready for the “season” of 2024. We have already had one visitor this year and our second arrives on Tuesday. We have some availability in March and April but after that weeks are few and far between so if you need your “Ineraval fix” then check out what is available on Ineraval-farmhouse.co.uk.

Today was a mammoth pot hole filling session. Winter always takes its toll on two miles of farm track but I am pleased to report that (apart from a few really awkward ones) they are now filled and ready for drivers!@

Welcome to Peace and Tranquility Unique is a much over-used term but we like to think we have better claim to it than most. Ineraval Farmhouse is situated in a remote and beautiful part of the Oa peninsula. Starting from the village of Port Ellen, you take the Oa Road (single track) for four miles.....

A dusting of snow here on Islay this morning making the Shop in the Box stand out like a big red beacon on the Oa.

We’ll be open again just before Easter when hopefully it will have warmed up and dried out a little.

Happy New Year from Ineraval where we start the year with a lovely winter’s day - both sunny and chilly. Of course, if this weather is not to your liking then you can just wait for an hour or two and something different will come along.

Thank you to everyone who has supported our little business in this very special corner of the world. We love the growing family of people around the world who have joined us here over the years. Always room for more!

A lot of clearing up to be done after Storm Gerrit hit Islay. Really sad to see what has happened at the Woolen Mill. Travel safely if you have to - otherwise, stay in!
