No.1 Charlotte Street

About No.1 Charlotte Street

No.1 Charlotte Street occupies a traditional building at the edge of Port Ellen, looking out over Kilnaughton Bay and the beach beyond, just a couple of minutes' walk from the ferry terminal. It offers seventeen straightforward, comfortable rooms alongside a public bar with a pool table and darts, giving it a livelier, more local feel than the island's country house options.

Its position at the foot of the whisky path means guests can walk from the door to Laphroaig, Lagavulin and Ardbeg distilleries without needing a car, and the bar and function room double as a genuine village pub for residents as well as guests. A large car park makes it practical for those arriving with luggage straight off the ferry.

Being two minutes from the Port Ellen ferry terminal, No.1 Charlotte Street works well both as a first stop on arrival and a last night before departure, as well as a budget-friendly base for the southern distillery trail throughout a longer stay.
