Picture of a small single story cottage on a small island, a few walkers standing around itTexa, an island off the south coast of Islay, is now uninhabited. However, there is a small cottage on the island. While not in use now I believe it was used as a summer house at times. The coast in the background is the Oa on Islay.

We had our lunch on a hillside with beautiful views over the southern coastline. The Oa in the far distance, Port Ellen on the shore below just left of centre.
