Morrison Bowmore acquires the Harbour Inn, Islay

By James Russell: Morrison Bowmore acquires the Harbour Inn, Islay

January 13, 2014

Morrison Bowmore Distillers have taken ownership of The Harbour Inn on the beautiful whisky island of Islay. The award-winning hotel and restaurant boasts seven en suite bedrooms and is a popular destination for both visitors and island residents alike.

Recently refurbished, this old whitewashed inn by the harbour has been brought up-to-date with stylish bedrooms and a conservatory with spectacular views across Loch Indaal towards Jura. The award winning restaurant features local quality produce, showcasing the rich ‘Taste of Islay ‘.

The Harbour Inn becomes a welcome addition to the Bowmore family, joining the Bowmore Visitor Centre and Distillery as well as luxury self catering cottages on the island.

Visitor Centre Operations and Development Manager Anne Kinnes said “In growing the Bowmore business to include the Harbour Inn, this is a very exciting time for us. We are looking forward to the opportunity of welcoming guests to experience our world class service on Islay.”

The Harbour Inn and Bowmore Distillery Cottages

Situated adjacent to Bowmore harbour, The Harbour Inn offers superb accommodation, high quality award winning food and excellent service. As a base for touring Islay – described by the Lord of the Isles as “ The Jewel of the Hebrides “ – the hotel’s location is unique with many areas of natural beauty within an easy drive.

Located within or beside the distillery complex, the Bowmore Distillery Cottages encapsulate Islay at its beautiful, peaceful and traditional best – all beautifully renovated to luxury Visit Scotland standard.
