Mattie’s house is a home from home,named after my partner’s late grandmother Mattie who lived in the house from when it was built.We would like you to be as comfortable as you would be in your own home,kick off your shoes after a busy day exploring all that islay has to offer and enjoy a wee dram from one of the many Islay distilleries.Many as a dram had in here back in the day,slainte 🥃 (cheers) The house and secured garden is fully accessible to all guests.There is a washing line in the garden. We are only a phone call or text away if needed don’t hesitate to get in touch,work commitments mean we don’t live nearby but have family available nearby. Mattie’s house is perfect for couples or families wanting to explore Islay.There are two hotels a pub and a restaurant along with three shops and a post office all within walking distance of the house. Islay lends itself to all modes of transport from walking and cycling to driving your own car or hiring a car,taxi or even bus or boat. Parking is outside the house on the opposite side of the road,you can park at the gate to unpack but it’s easier if all the cars are parked on the same side of the street.Please be careful going in and out of the front door as it has quite a high step into the entrance.Guests please note it’s advisable to confirm ferry bookings as we don’t want you to be turned away when the ferry is full.
