JURA DISTILLERY
Jura’s whisky distillery was established in 1810 and reborn in 1963 to bring life back to the island and the community. Their dedication, enhanced by a very distinct micro-climate, results in unique whiskies that are smooth, bright and lively, just like the tiny island community who make them.
JURA HOTEL

CRAIGHOUSE
Explore the village of Craighouse with spectacular views across Small Isle Bay. Walk down to the Old Pier where you will find quality crafts in Camella Crafts and The Whisky Island Gallery & Studio. If you’re lucky, Deer Island Rum Distillery might just be open as well.
CORRAN SANDS
From Craighouse, it’s about a 2-mile walk or cycle to relax on the beautiful beach at Corran sands.
