You might cozy up in a bed and breakfast in a family home, book a luxury self-catering cottage, pitch your tent, seal the door against the elements in a storm pod, or collapse into the luxury linens on a bed in one of the finer hotels. Islay has a great choice of accommodations, but it can fill up at peak times. A double room with en suite costs around £90. There are different types of rooms, some with and some without en suite facilities. The hotel is directly opposite Jura Distillery.

Are you in the mood for a plate piled high with fresh seafood, a dozen oysters chilled on ice, or a local venison steak? If you are on Jura, you should absolutely go and visit and have a browse.You need never be hungry due to the great range of options for lunch, dinner, or a quick snack. Shipping is available if you are buying anything on the bigger side and can't easily take it with you off the island. We ended up buying quite a lot of prints and calendars for ourselves, friends and family. I'm sure he gets the same questions over and over again (where was that one taken? How did you get that shot?) but he gave no sign of it and shared lots of interesting insights into what he does Konrad is very friendly and enthusiastic and happy to talk about his work. The dominant themes of his work are the same as those of Jura and Isla themselves - beautiful landscapes, wild red deer and of course, whisky! I am not at all knowledgeable in photography so I lack the vocabulary to do his work justice but it is simply fantastic. They had gifted us a calendar that he had produced which was very nice so I was happy to go along and have a browse although I am by no means passionate Graham and his staff are providing a new dimension to fine dining at Antlers in Craighouse on Jura. We were travelling with friends who had previously met the photographer, Konrad Borkowski, and were keen to go and visit the gallery and say hello. Recently spent 5 or 6 hours in and around Craighouse on a gloriously hot and sunny July day (this is Scotland, your mileage may vary)
