One of Islay’s finest guest houses, Bowmore House, here seen from Bowmore pier. I think the best room is probably the one with the bay window top left, it has great views in all directions over Loch Indaal (yes, I’ve stayed in it a few years back)

Admittedly not a view you’d get with the bare eye, I used a fairly strong telephoto lens for this picture: The Paps of Jura (Beinn an Oir, Beinn a’Chaolais, Beinn Shiantaid) seen across Loch Indaal from Bowmore pier on a June afternoon.

Taken on a nice afternoon on Islay in June 2019, a panoramic view of Bruichladdich from Bowmore pier. The distillery with the old warehouses towards the right, the new warehouses up the hill towards the left.
