Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Fantastic!!!!!
Just returned from a 5 day stay at claggan, family of 11 and 1 dog, 2 of which were aged 13 and the games room was a great hit, house is big enough to spread out and not feel on top of each other, big kitchen for all of us to eat together and living room big enough in evening to all sit and play bingo and have quiz nights, great location for trips out during the day and quick access to local well stocked shop for emergency eggs and baked beans!!! We came at the perfect time to see many baby lambs being born right outside the front door. We will be back and thank you for everything. Amanda

Perfect place to stay for my family of 11, plus dog!
Five adults and six children, plus dog, had a great time at Claggan Farmhouse, situated in a good position for both ferry terminals and only a few minutes by car from the wee shop at Bridgend and 5 minutes from the lovely town of Bowmore The accommodation was excellent, just like a home from home, kitchen was very well equipped and the beds were extremely comfortable, with lovely fresh bedding. The games room was enjoyed by both adults and children and the sitting room was just the perfect spot to relax. Hope to go back to Claggan for a longer stay next year, for my 70th birthday!

empfehlenswerte Unterkunft
Wir waren mit einer Gruppe von nur 5 Personen in dem Haus, so dass jeder sein eigenes Zimmer hatte. Aber wir hätten problemlos auch einige mehr sein können. Das Haus ist in gutem Zustand und weist alles auf, was man für den Aufenthalt benötigt. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet und die Betten sind bequem. Die ein oder andere Sache nicht mehr ganz neu. Die Lage ist auf Islay sehr zentral. Die letzten Meter zum Haus sind nicht mehr asphaltiert, aber mit einem normalem Auto problemlos zu erreichen. Bridgend mit einem Shop kann auch zu Fuß erreicht werden. Das Hotel/Bar in Bridgend war leider in der Zeit geschlossen, als wir das haus gemietet hatten. Wir mussten also zum Essen gehen fahren bzw. haben im Haus gekocht. Der Kontakt zum Vermieter war sehr gut und dieser auch für unserer Anliegen kurzfristig erreichbar. Wir können das Haus wirklich nur empfehlen.

Fantastic house and outstanding owner
We enjoyed a brilliant week on Islay in this fantastic house. We were due to be 3 families but circumstances meant only one family could travel on the planned dates. The owner Sophie helped us in a number of ways including trying to get our friends across on another ferry. She also ensured everything was in order for us and we had everything we needed. The house itself is set back in its own grounds surrounded by fields so gave great space for the kids to run around. The games room was the best aspect which both adults and kids enjoyed. Such a great social space and we had so much fun playing pool, table tennis and foosball. It’s a lovely large room and if we had been 3 families, it would comfortably have accommodated us all. The kitchen was a large, well stocked communal area. There was also a great space at the front door to hang wet clothes and dump muddy wellies! Definitely somewhere we would stay again.

Loved this house.... we’ll be back.
Super house for families . Comfortable, well appointed house with enough space for our group of 3 generations to coexist peacefully. The kitchen table managed to seat 12, the sitting room with open fire was bright and welcoming and the excellent games room was a hit with the younger members.

Magical family reunion
Claggan House is just ideal for a family reunion. It is centrally located on the island of Islay. The kitchen is so well equipped ideal for preparing gourmet dinners !! The bedrooms are spacious and the beds very comfortable. The games room is an added bonus we had great table tennis competitions!! The sitting room is again spacious and so so comfy with its open fire. Drams of the whiskey and craic after a day exploring this beautiful island.😊⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️📖

Visit to Claggan Farm
Had a lovely weekend with family celebrating my father and uncles 80th birthday - extra special since they are identical twins. Great place for a family get together with 6 bedrooms to accommodate everyone.Great games room,homely farm kitchen for everyone to enjoy eating together and lovely comfortable lounge with open fire to relax in the evening. No issues and owner very quickly responded when we were unsure about heating for games room.Would reccomend highly.

Très bon séjour
Nous avons passé une superbe semaine sur Islay hébergé à Claggan. Maison propre et très calme. Nous étions à 12 personnes. Bien agencée et bien meublée. Nous nous sommes tout de suite sentis à l’aise. Nous recommandons ce cottage. Merci à Sophie

Ideal house for big group
Claggan house is in an excellent location for all beaches, distilleries etc in Bridgend,Islay. Our party of 12 ( mixed ages) plus a 2 yr old toddler thoroughly enjoyed a weeks stay there. The bedrooms are very comfortable- all twin bedded bar one with an added bonus of having wash hand basins! The large farmhouse kitchen sat all of us so well that we never ate out. The games room was a huge hit especially for the younger members of our party. The drying room was a great asset and meant wet boots etc could be taken off and dried. WiFi worked well even with all the different iPads and iPhones using it. The beaches were all lovely particularly Saligo and Sanaigmore. If you get good weather like we did you’ll not be disappointed! But al least if it rains you have the games room!!
