About this cottage rental

Lenavore is a small and charming self-catering holiday cottage on the island of Islay, which is located off the beautiful west coast of Scotland.

The cottage, which is situated on the south of the island on The Oa peninsula, has been in the same family for over 70 years and was once part of the Kinnabus Estate. The surrounding land now forms the RSPB’s Oa nature reserve, home to birds such as choughs, peregrine falcons, and golden eagles. The Mull of Oa is famous for its stunning and rugged coastline, open moorland and freshwater lochs.

With panoramic views across the Mull of Oa, Lenavore's rural location makes it the perfect retreat for couples looking to get away from it all and enjoy the beautiful landscapes, varied wildlife and many other attractions that the island of Islay has to offer.

Accommodation:

With a large double bedroom and a small twin room, Lenavore is perfect for two people.

The cottage has central heating and a cosy open fire. A bag of fuel will be provided.

There is a good sized lounge with two sofas and plenty of room to relax.

The fitted kitchen is well equipped and should have everything you need.

The bathroom has a bath with overhead shower.

All bed linen and towels will be provided for your stay.

Lenavore has a drive with parking for up to two cars.

There is a good sized garden from which you can enjoy wonderful panoramic views.

A few points we like to make prospective visitors aware of to avoid any disappointment:

Unfortunately, the cottage does not have wi-fi, but internet connection is available at the ‘Cyber Café’ on Mansefield Place in Port Ellen and many other places on the island also have wi-fi.

Due to its remote location, there is no mobile/cell phone signal at the cottage, but this can generally be obtained by travelling a short distance towards Port Ellen (depending on your network).

Sorry, no pets are allowed at the cottage.

We had a really great stay. The cottage was spacious and spotlessly clean, the location was beautiful and the wildlife abundant. Jennifer was friendly and helpful, giving advice on travel to Islay and directions to the cottage. We could not have asked for a better stay! Thank you.

This secluded little cottage is a true pearl. The landlords are very nice and considerate, perfect communication before the stay. Nicely decorated and with all due amenities located in a remote location on Islay but still easy to get to. If you look for a true get-away from everday life, this is it! Highly recommended ! We shall be back!
