E Isle of Colonsay Lodges - Scalasaig STB*

Special note: This location is unmatched for walkers, cyclists, responsible motorists:

This accommodation is very convenient to the pier, shop, post office, surgery, village hall and to both the island's licensed restaurants. The location is ideal for those on foot, or for those who would not wish to drive home after an evening out. It is also particularly suitable for persons who do not wish to stay for exactly seven nights, since the booking arrangements are very flexible.

Please note that there are no B & B establishments less than 3 miles from the hotel or "pantry" restaurant. There are in fact six other self-catering cottages within three miles of Scalasaig, but none of them offer our degree of flexibility - and even a three mile walk both ways can be quite a stroll. Stay with us and enjoy close-proximity to the award-winning hotel plus peace-of-mind and independence.

€ We welcome payment by Euro and major creditcards

TOTAL FLEXIBILITY: arrive and depart on any Sunday, Wednesday or Friday, reserve any length of stay.
ADJOINS "THE COLONSAY" HOTEL & RESTAURANT: The social centre of the island is close at hand, with convivial bar, affordable wines and excellent food based upon the finest produce. Serving meals all day, and wonderfully child-friendly!
FULLY EQUIPPED for self-catering, our lodges include all bedlinen and towels.
IDEAL LOCATION: sandy beach, bar, restaurants, shop, pier all within 500 metres.
RECOMMENDED: "This will be our sixth successive year and it keeps getting better."
PETS WELCOMED: No additional charge for well-behaved pets.
TOP QUALITY TV & RADIO RECEPTION BY SATELLITE
NOTE THE VALUE: We do not charge "extra" for bed-linen or pets; because of our location, you could choose to come without a car; and we offer incredible flexibility for varying lengths of stay.

The lodges adjoin the hotel where on- and off-licence sales, bar lunches and bar suppers are available.
