  • My husband and I stayed two nights at the distillery. We did the whiskey tour with chocolate tasting and ate at the restaurant on site. From the moment we arrived until our departure we had a 5 star experience. The short ferry ride over to the island is breathtaking, the distillery and rooms are beautiful designed and comfortable, staff are very friendly and attentive, the views are magnificent and the day we spent walking the island was lovely. The whiskey tour and tasting were also fabulous and the onsite restaurant serves absolutely outstanding food. I highly recommend staying at least one night, having dinner and taking the time to explore the views from the island in a day.
