Aggro-Tourism: 12 Hotels for Blowing Off Steam

"At the Machrie, on the isle of Islay, you can get back to the roots of the game and play it the way it was meant to be played: man versus nature and the elements, over rough and tumble ground, all on foot." - Mark Fedeli

Aggro-Tourism: 12 Hotels for Blowing Off Steam

"Don’t ever let anyone tell you that golf isn’t a physically taxing activity. In Scotland, where nary a golf cart can be found, it most certainly is. Your typical over-manicured golf resort gives the sport a bad name — but at the Machrie, on the isle of Islay, you can get back to the roots of the game and play it the way it was meant to be played: man versus nature and the elements, over rough and tumble ground, all on foot." - Mark Fedeli

Good Golf Is An Adventure Sport

"Golf purists will recognize the appeal of a trip to Islay rests not on a hotel, but on the Machrie Links, a fabled Willie Campbell course that dates back to 1891, and is basically the epitome of everything championed above." - Mark Fedeli

"Golf purists will recognize the appeal of a trip to Islay, in the Inner Hebrides rests not on a hotel, but on the Machrie Links, a Willie Campbell course that dates back to 1891. As long as you’re there, though, it certainly helps that the hotel is as impressive as it is. The Machrie is hotelier Gordon Campbell Gray’s first hotel in Scotland, and it’s everything you’d expect it to be — fantastically luxurious but impeccably tasteful about it, and historically aware but never old-fashioned. Even non-golfers will appreciate the dramatic landscapes and the extensive wellness offerings, and the restaurant, with its panoramic sea views, serves upscale locally sourced fare." - Tablet Hotels

This hotel exceeded my expectations — definitely great value for money. The property is beautiful: the décor, the details, and the artwork throughout are truly charming. Excellent job on that. The rooms, while small, are perfectly adequate. What I didn’t quite understand was the oversized bathroom — there’s really no need for such a large one when it makes the bedroom feel so small. A special mention goes to James, the bartender/waiter. Great guy — he helped me understand the island’s whiskies, the food, and the hotel itself. He truly made the difference. Just a word of caution: be careful with the bathtub. It’s quite high, there’s no grab bar to hold onto, and it really feels like an accident waiting to happen.

Our stay at The Machrie was absolutely fabulous from start to finish. The property is stunning, with unobstructed views of the Atlantic from so many vantage points. Every possible comfort has been considered - including amazing wood burning fire places, hot tubs, complimentary wellies - which made our stay seamless. The staff at the Machrie show so much genuine passion and enthusiasm, and really went above and beyond to ensure our stay was extra special. From whisky pairings, oyster luges, 18 holes of incredible golf - this is Islay hospitality at its finest. Thank you to JC, Callum, Cameron and Nick for making our stay one to remember!

Location wise was great and easy to get to, the atmosphere was very calm, perfect for a mini break. The rooms were clean but a bit hot for my boyfriend liking and had no ways of adjusting this. I booked the Taste of Islay package for my boyfriend 40th so was great value. The service was great, staff was friendly. The only downside to it is that the spa was a bit of let down with cold indoor sauna and outdoor hot-tub. Also no slippers so bring your own if you want to use the spa facilities.

We were so excited about going to this hotel after reading reviews but sadly it didn’t quite live up to them .|Good things were the location is lovely, very comfortable beds/pillows|Delicious food ( but limited food choices) |However…. | On arrival at airport no one was around to pick us up , when we rang hotel they hadn’t booked us in for a taxi, even though they had spoken to us about it less than 24 hours before! No open fires were lit despite it being dark, wet and blowy outside , none were lit throughout our stay sadly.|Our room was extremely small and did not fit with the description we had booked, an outside light was on all night shining in room around the curtain blind , They agreed to upgrade us for an additional cost ! The second room was lovely with lots of room … no mini bar in either room. |No outside hot tub or sauna were working |Breakfast had no fresh fruit or nuts/seeds, the kedgeree was curried! Slightly odd for breakfast |We really felt it was below other 4* hotels we have stayed in unfortunately

We stayed Friday to Monday as an adult family of 4 with our dog.||Breakfast, Sunday lunch and dinner were all fantastic. The dinner menu had changed that day which was great to see that the kitchen works seasonally. Drinks in the bar also very tasty.||Hotel is very relaxing and very well appointed. Only minor negative was that everywhere was very warm, including rooms.||The hotel is very dog friendly and the staff went out of their way to make our stay relaxing.

The Macherie is one of the most beautiful hotels experience we’ve ever had mostly due to its unbelievable beautiful location. Yes the hotel is quite nice , the rooms are cozy and nicely appointed. The restaurant is top notch but nothing comes close to the spectacular setting it’s located on . The Hotels finest achievement IMO is the “Stagg Lounge” one the greatest spaces you can spend time in , having a cocktail, afternoon tea or simply staring endlessly out the massive window onto the beautiful golf course and surrounding countryside and beaches .

Fantastic hotel, beautifully decorated. Very good restaurant and spaces to relax, drink etc. Golf course is fantastic with good choices of tees - which you may need depending on wind strength! Beach is amazing - our dog loved it and the views are beautiful. It takes time to get here but well worth it.

Wonderful hotel with lots to do. The short walk onto such a lovely beach with nobody else there, was wonderful. The hotel team were all super helpful and we were very well looked after. Lots of fresh fish and seafood available at lunch and dinner, which is right up my street. ||The only down side is not being there for long enough.
