With stunning views over Small Isles Bay, our self catering holiday cottage is literally a stone's throw from the beach. It's also a short stroll into Craighouse Village; where you will find the Jura Whisky Distillery, Deer Island Rum Distillery, the community owned Jura Stores, The Antlers cafe, and the Jura Hotel.
The terraced cottage has two bedrooms, one bathroom, and an open plan living room, kitchen, dining area. It comfortably sleeps four, but will sleep up to six if you're happy to use the sofa bed in the living room.
It's fully equipped with everything you could need for your stay.
We're happy to share our family owned holiday cottage with you!
Ridley's family have owned a cottage on the Isle of Jura for almost 40 years, and Ridley and Sarah are pleased to be the current custodians of Lorne Cottage. After undergoing a full renovation (rebuild) in 2019, the cottage is now beautifully appointed and ready to host guests.
Jura is rightly famous for its whisky, and the Jura Whisky distillery is just a short stroll from the cottage, so you can safely go for a tour and a tasting without having to worry about driving. Visit the Jura Whisky website for details on tours and tastings.
Did you know that Jura is now also home to a gin distillery, rum distillery and brewery?
It's not all about alcohol though! Throughout the year there are a number of regular events, which can see the Jura population expand significantly, you're strongly recommended to book early if you want to stay on Jura during these events:
Jura has some amazing scenery and wildlife which you can explore for yourself, or take a guided tour with one of the locals:
Make sure you check out the Island Bakehouse's Pink Bread Shed, for delicious sourdough bread and other goodies baked by Kirsty. The bread shed is a self-service honesty system at the opposite end of our row of cottages.
During the summer, take a trip up to the North end of the island and pay a visit to Tea on the Beach. Another honesty system, selling tea and cakes from a converted horse box at Inverlussa beach.
Check out our Isle of Jura Tourist Map for the locations of all of these places and more.
