A view from Four Winds above Portnahaven, looking out to Orsay with the Rhinns of Islay lighthouse. If you look carefully you also just make out Ireland across the North Channel on the horizon.

A view from Four Winds on a beautiful June evening on the Rhinns of Islay. Opposite the houses along King Street in Portnahaven, Crown Street behind it. Behind it in the distance is Port Wemyss, Crom Street to the right and An Cnoc stretching out into the distance in the centre, the houses along Shore Street and Bayview Street to the right. The North Channel behind, unfortunately not clear enough to see Ireland.
