The Jura Hotel offers an experience that blends warm hospitality with the unspoiled beauty of Scotland’s west coast. Situated in the heart of Craighouse village, the hotel looks out across the water with striking views and sits only a few steps from the renowned Jura Distillery. With its abundant deer, world-class whisky, and wild landscapes, Jura is an island of rare character, and the hotel provides the perfect base for exploring its remarkable surroundings. Family-run and steeped in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere, it is a retreat that captures the true charm of island life.
Guests can choose from three styles of accommodation, including Feature Rooms with breathtaking sea views, as well as Standard Double and Standard Single Rooms. Each room is thoughtfully equipped with complimentary Scottish Fyne Soaps products, tea and coffee-making facilities, and bottled water. Most rooms are en-suite with towels provided, while two offer private bathrooms located just across the corridor. For families or groups, flexible arrangements are available, including family rooms and the option of converting some rooms into twin setups.
The hotel’s restaurant lounge and bar create a cosy, inviting setting in which to dine or relax. Offering a varied menu of delicious food and drinks, it is the perfect place to gather before or after a day of exploration. Guests can enjoy panoramic sea views across the Sound of Jura while surrounded by a characterful interior adorned with distinctive Scottish touches. Themed evenings, which are a highlight for visitors and locals alike, add an extra layer of enjoyment to the experience.
In addition to hotel stays, camping options are also available for those who wish to immerse themselves even further in the island’s natural beauty.
Although just five miles from the mainland, Jura retains an extraordinary sense of remoteness. With its small population of around 230 residents, a single-track road, and an absence of commercial distractions, the island provides a true escape from modern life. Its quiet charm belies a wealth of activities, from walking and wildlife spotting to whisky tasting and exploring the island’s rugged landscapes.
