Kintra Farm is situated four miles from the village of Port Ellen, in a beautiful location beside miles and miles of sandy beach, rocky inlets and moorland. There's plenty to do - distillery hopping, bird watching, walking, diving, golfing, windsurfing, horse-riding, general ceilidh-ing or maybe just nothing. In addition to a comfortable B&B, there are also a couple of gorgeous cottages and great camping - all in a spectacular setting. Kintra Farmhouse is a traditional farmhouse on three floors, having two bathrooms, two large sitting rooms (both available all day) and a breakfast room with separate tables for guests. The house retains many items of Victorian interest in its comfortable furnishings. There are three rooms, one twin, one double and one family. All have tea making facilities. Access is
available to a good selection of books on local history and information. There is also a choice of comfortable lounges: One of the lounges has a television, but if peace, warmth and views are what you relish - you should seek out the sumptuous second floor sitting room.
40 Pier Road40 Pier Road lies right next to the Port Ellen ferry terminal - two suites with wonderful views of the village and the sea from each room. Lunch advised at the Bowmore Distillery.

I have selected the properties on Private House Stays for their individuality that results from being privately owned. They take many forms from bed and breakfasts to small hotels but in each case it is the marque of the owner that sets it apart. This may be the charm of the furnishings, the wholesome home cooking or simply the atmosphere created by a charismatic host. I have inspected most of the establishments listed here and feel sure you will enjoy staying in them too.
Remember - booking through Private House Stays is free of charge.
