Queen of the Rinns
Well, the locals call it Port Sgioba in Gaelic, if that's what they're getting at...
The main settlement on the western peninsula of Islay is the picturesque village of Port Charlotte, also known as ‘Queen of the Rinns'. This picture postcard conservation village has converted an old Free Church Kirk into the award-winning ‘Museum of Islay Life'. One fascinating exhibition details the many shipwrecks that have occurred around the island coastline. Close by, is Bruichladdich Distillery, where visitors can sample the wares whilst resting beside the loch.
