The Old Excise House is situated on the coast at Laphroaig, near the world famous whisky distillery of that name, only a few miles from the Port Ellen ferry terminal. This family run bed and breakfast has recently been renovated to a high standard to ensure that you have a comfortable and memorable holiday on islay. The property was built by Laphroaig distillery in 1906 to be used as a home for their Excise Officers.

Guest accommodation is on the first floor to make the most of the superb sea views. The Laphroaig room has superking/twin beds and an en-suite traditional bathroom with roll top bath. Texa room has king size double bed with a large luxury contemporary en-suite shower room. Each room offers satellite tv with DVD, free internet connection, tea and coffe tray with homemade biscuits and fresh milk, hairdryer and ironing board. The Guests breakfast/sitting room is the perfect place to relax, by the wood burning stove, with plenty of books and games available.

The Old Excise House is a non smoking property and unfortunately cannot take pets. If both the rooms are booked together we can accommodate children, a cot bed and inflatable extra bed are available. Pre booked home cooked evening meals and packed lunches are available, please ask for details. Special diets including gluten free are catered for. As much local produce as possible is utilised, along with homemade bread, cakes, biscuits and preserves.
