We had a fabulous stay in this beautiful house on Barra. Lots of lovely walks and beaches to explore and Grianan is the perfect place to come back and relax. The bedrooms are lovely and the kitchen is well equipped. The views speak for themselves – I particularly enjoyed a bath looking out over the water.
We will be back! Thank you for a great trip.
What a beautiful spot! We had a wonderful time on Barra. There are so many stunning beaches and walks, and Grianan is the perfect home to come back to relax after a day exploring the island.
The house is modern, spacious and clean and was the perfect set up for our group. The bedrooms are comfortable and the kitchen is well- equipped. The open plan living area is perfect for spending an evening unwinding and taking in the stunning views. I particularly enjoyed having a bath overlooking the water!
Thank you for a fantastic stay. We will be back..
Simply stunning house in the most beautiful location. The house has been renovated superbly and provided a perfect setting for a thoroughly relaxing escape. The weather during our stay couldn’t have been more ‘Hebridean’ but we loved sitting and watching the storms roll past through the picture windows.
Barra did not disappoint. It is a wonderful island to explore in all weather and Grianan is the ideal base for an island adventure!
