The morning mist lifts off Loch Gorm in layers, and you're watching it from a window with a proper cup of tea in hand.

This is one for couples after a quiet escape, walkers tackling the island trails, and anyone who'd rather wake under a solid roof than canvas — the mix of camping pods and guest house rooms means you can choose your level of comfort. Islay's not about crowds or theme parks; it's peat smoke, distilleries you can walk to, and beaches where you'll see more seals than people. The pods suit those wanting a bit of shelter without losing that outdoor feel, while the guest house works for anyone done with sleeping bags.

Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth asking ahead if you're bringing yours. Campfires need checking on arrival — the island weather has a say in that. It's a calm, thoughtful sort of place, year-round, where the wind in the grass and the whisky in the glass are about all the entertainment you need.

Loch Indaal Way

Circles the entire shoreline of Loch Indaal on Islay, mixing flat coastal sections with some moderate climbs around headlands. Terrain varies from sandy beaches and tidal zones to grassy paths and quiet country lanes – manageable for older children but trickier with buggies due to uneven stretches and occasional mud. Dogs welcome throughout. Delivers sweeping views across the loch, excellent birdwatching (especially waders and geese in winter), and passes several distilleries if you fancy combin
