About Machrie Hotel & Golf Links

Low Road runs out through open duneland on the Isle of Islay, and it's here, among the machair grass and coastal links, that Machrie Hotel & Golf Links makes its home, a few miles from Port Ellen itself. The setting is the main event: wide sky, rough coastal turf and a sea that's rarely out of view, with the golf course wrapping around the hotel itself.

Rooms are en-suite, with family and accessible options available, and guests have use of a lift, room service, laundry and drinks brought to the room. Downstairs there's a restaurant and bar, a snack bar and outdoor seating in the garden, plus a games room and a spa and sauna for slower days. Breakfast, packed lunches and kids' meals are all catered for, and childcare can be arranged for families travelling with children.

Beyond golf, the area is well suited to walking, cycling, fishing and horse riding, with pubs and restaurants nearby for evenings out. The hotel takes pets, offers free on-site parking and free WiFi throughout, and can arrange airport transfers for those arriving on Islay by plane.
