Situation
34 Bay View is a very pretty mid-terraced cottage and offers breath-taking uninterrupted views across the sea to Ireland and the Isle of Orsay.
The Atlantic Ocean is the seascape and the next western land mass is Newfoundland, Canada on its eastern seaboard. 34 Bay View is about 7 miles from Port Charlotte which has a post office and well stocked general store, and 14 miles from Bridgend where there is a first class and well stocked local general provisions store. Co-op mini supermarkets are located in Bowmore and Port Ellen and with the advent of click and collect some of the mainland supermarkets offer a delivery service to the island. There is also a shop in Portnahaven less than a mile away which sells basic provisions and newspapers.
For schooling, Port Charlotte, Keills, Port Ellen and Bowmore have primary schools and Bowmore is home to Islay Secondary school. Bowmore is also where the island hospital is to be found, Port Ellen has a ferry link to Kennacraig which gives access to the mainland. Port Askaig (21.8 miles) is to the north east of the island and also has a ferry crossing to Kennacraig and Jura.
The Island’s airport is 21.9 miles distant and offers regular flights to Glasgow.
Port Ellen, Islay’s main deep water harbour, was founded in 1821 by Walter Frederick Campbell and built around Leodamas Bay. The town is the second largest on Islay after Bowmore and is situated in a sheltered part of the island.
A prominent building of Port Ellen is the former whisky distillery, now Port Ellen Maltings. Here most of the malts are produced for the majority of the distilleries on the island. Islay is steeped in ancient history and most parts of the island hold a varied and interesting range of Archaeological sites covering the Neolithic, Bronze and Iron Age periods as well as more recent examples of human settlement. Islay is the most southerly of the Hebridean islands and benefits from mild climates created by the Gulf Stream.
The island is a combination of dramatic sea cliffs, mountain moorland, and sweeping sandy bays bordered by sea water and the machair which is the low lying and highly fertile area of grassy ground between the beach and the peat bogs further inland. The machair is a haven for wildlife and attracts a great deal of ecological and conservational attention. The island is world famous for its nine working distilleries and the now well established Islay Festival of music and malt occurs at the end of May each year and draws people from all over the world. Islay is also famed for its wildlife, the island has managed herds of wild red deer, there are otters and the island has establishing pairs of white tailed eagles.
An annual event is the arrival to the island of some 50,000 barnacle geese and other species as they arrive from Greenland to winter in the milder climes of western Scotland. The rspb have reserves with resident wardens on the island and there are regular reports and sightings of some rare bird species including choughs and corncrake which both breed on Islay.
As with most parts of Scotland one is never too far from a golf course and Islay is no different, the internationally famous Machrie Golf Links designed by Willie Campbell is about 25.4 miles from 34 Bay View. Productive sea fishing from shore and boat is available locally and there are trout and salmon opportunities by permit in surrounding rivers and hill lochs. Managed game shooting and stalking are also available on the island. The countryside is some of the most scenically attractive on the west coast of Scotland, it is a delight to walk or cycle or simply just to enjoy the peace, tranquillity and flora and fauna of the island.
