“Lovely stay”
Stayed here for four nights. Ideally situated for exploring this incredible island. Comfy beds. Lots of fresh linen and towels provided. Donald was extremely accommodating and incredibly helpful. Steep drive so best to reverse in. Clean and tidy with everything you will require for your stay. Bathroom did have a strong smell of smoke when we arrived but this did fade during our stay. Great value for money.

“We loved it.”
The cottage was warm, clean and welcoming. OK it wasn’t luxurious but it was homely, in a great place with great views and just what we needed. We would return without second thoughts. My husband loved the peace and quiet. Barra is a lovely place to visit and cottage is well placed for the island as long as you have a car.
