After staying at Hester's other property (Coillabus Cottage) last summer, we decided to treat ourselves to a lovely half-term break in her eco-lodge. We hired a car from Glasgow and drove to the Calmac ferry port, across Islay to the lodge just before Storm Eunice!...More
The house is wonderful. The design is very well thought out and the houses are clearly well-maintained and kept immaculate by Hazel the housekeeper. The beds are really comfortable and this makes such a difference. The view from the houses takes one's breath away. Highlights...More

We had the most wonderful week staying at the Coillabus Lodge. Islay is a spectacular island - rugged and beautiful, sparsely populated with some of the friendliest people you could meet. Hours of walks both from the lodge directly, and along the miles of unspoilt...More

Now some 8-9 years since Hester Ross (who’s family have long owned this part of the Oa Peninsula on Islay) these lodges will not dissapoint anyone seeking comfort and luxury in a remote wilderness. Well equipped with sauna two large double bedrooms each with a...More
A long planned for 50th birthday celebration and it was down to the wire whether the Scottish government would relax lockdown so we were both able to stay in self catering accommodation but also get the ferry. So we made it just days after and...More
Excellent accommodation. We stayed 5 nights in the West facing lodge and experienced wonderful sunsets over Glenastle Lochs and the Atlantic. Superb facilities, including a sauna, air source heat pump, and everything you could wish for. Ideally located, but then Islay is not a large...More
Coillabus may take a while to get to, but the reward is big if you want to get away from it all without compromising on comfort: my wife, daughter (1) and I stayed for four nights and very much enjoyed the isolation, weather watching, comfortable...More
Stayed for eight nights over Christmas. The lodge is in a great and very quiet position on the Oa Peninsula. The accommodation is fitted out to a very high standard and the bedrooms are extremely comfortable. During the stay we got to see lots of...More

Thanks for taking time to write such a lovely review of Coilllabus. We do think that the Calmac sail is one of the best . I’m glad your dogs enjoyed your stay too. Brave of them to take on the highland cow . We’ll be...More
I came with a partner and left with a fiancée! Romantic cannot start to describe how delightful this place is. We both loved the place and relaxed immediately we arrived after a 16 hour journey from Surrey. Everything in the lodge is designed for you...More
Congratulations! We loved having you at Coillabus and we're chuffed to bits to have such a lovely, thoughtful review. Thank you. We especially love that you love our 'wacky but wonderfully georgeous' outdoor bath- its definitely a Star Tub (and we like to think it's...More
