    A great place to stay.

    Nothing.

    We stayed for 2 nights at Barnweil and had a day trip to St Kilda on our full day there. Johnny, the owner, could not have been more helpful. He offered to take us to the nearby Stein Inn where we had booked a meal and to pick us up afterwards. We just walked but it was a very kind offer. The property was great. Spotlessly clean and modern. We had an early breakfast before the boat trip and a full Scottish breakfast on the day of our departure. Both were really nice. We would certainly stay there again if we returned to the area. We have no hesitation in highly recommending this B&B

    The inn is in a remote area but that is part of its appeal and charm.

    Beautiful and comfortable small inn. Gorgeous views. Delicious breakfasts. Johnny the host made the stay most enjoyable. He goes out of his way to welcome his guests and help ensure a pleasant stay. He was easily reachable and helped plan our days. We would definitely stay here again when we return to Skye.

    Everything was excellent!

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, everything was more than perfect. Meticulous attention to detail in every way, tastefully decorated and very comfortable. Our host Johnny was attentive, nothing was too much trouble.. Breakfast was superb, lots of variety, including a porridge which was perhaps the best I have ever had. The location was superb, very picturesque. I would not hesitate to recommend booking here to anyone.

    Warm, spacious very clean and tastefully decorated. Host Johnny was very welcoming with tea coffee on arrival. He went out of his way to help us including collecting us from the local inn on a rainy night. Breakfast was excellent; good quality ingredients cooked really well. We loved staying here and would heartily recommend it.

    The walls are a bit thin and you can hear other guests so keep that in mind when chatting etc. The room is a great size but has one sloping wall. We bonked our heads many times over the few days we were there.

    The whole experience was perfection. Johnny was top shelf host. It felt like coming home, border collie greeting included. Breakfasts were delicious, extensive, incredible! Rooms and house so clean, fresh!
