Welcome To An Conusg Self Catering Islay
An Conusg Self Catering Islay, (Gaelic for Gorse) is a recently renovated bungalow situated on the beautiful West coast of Islay. Located at Ballinaby Farm, it is ideally placed to discover the stunning beaches of Kilchoman, Saligo and Sanaigmore. Set away from the main road and up a short farm track, the house has outstanding views over Loch Gorm . It is surrounded by fields where our sheep and cattle graze and with a large garden area is the perfect place to relax, unwind and watch the world go by on ‘Islay time’.
Islay’s newest distillery, Kilchoman is a short drive away along a picturesque road where you are more likely to encounter bird and wildlife than other vehicles. The quiet roads surrounding the farm are ideal for any cyclists who would like to take advantage of seeing such beautiful countryside at a much slower pace of life.
