Once you arrive on Islay it's easy to find Ardbeg - although not quite so simple as following your nose. Take the low road south towards Port Ellen, pass Laphroaig, Lagavulin then before you come to the Kildalton Cross you'll see Ardbeg's rocky cove. We're open 7 days a week during the summer, but from October to June we close for the weekend. You can pick up a road map when you arrive in Islay.
