We stayed 3 nights and wished it had been more. The rooms are well appointed and tastefully decorated. The house has a lovely outlook and is near to Tarbert. John and Marlene are perfect hosts and go the extra mile to make the stay extra special. There are even car washing facilities. The breakfast is something special with a very... More

Ceol na Mara is an easy 3 mins drive from the Tarbert Ferry Terminal (3 lefts & a right). Set in typical scenic landscape of Harris with a small loch towards the front, ample car parking space, also for turning. The beautiful beaches & galleries of South Harris are a short car drive away. Rooms : The rooms are clean,... More

Very warm welcome. Comfortable room. Lots of nice touches. Only complaint would be about the technology. We didn't need or expect any. But.... The TVs are in every room and the walls/ceilings ate paper thin. The free wifi didn't reach to our room. The mains plug was dodgy. The iPhone/iPod bedside charger was dead. Unfortunately, the thin walls spoilt our... More

We were very lucky to get a cancellation as there are not that many places to stay in Lewis and Harris and this must be one of the best. The Guest House is a mile south of Tarbert overlooking a small loch in a lovely location. Good clean comfortable rooms. Delicious breakfast and very welcoming and helpful hosts.

It's hard to say something new and it's difficult to find any fault with this lovely b&b. We stayed for 3 nights in the Blue room, which was very comfortable, spotlessly clean and had great views. Breakfasts were wonderful, excellent fresh fruit, yogurt and cereals and the choice of main dish. Much as I like egg and bacon, I don't... More

Wonderful location with stunning views over a loch. Room excellent with extra touches of hospitality such as the complimentary mini sherry and whisky flasks in the room on arrival. Fantastic hospitality from John and Marlene throughout our stay. Breakfasts were unbelievable - huge range on offer and more than generous portions. Home made yoghurt and bread, masses of varied fresh... More

This was one of the best B & B's on our trip through the Hebrides. Great location close to Tabert, yet remote setting at a loch. Our room as beautifully appointed with selected furniture and other items to add that personal touch. Wonderful breakfasts with a wide variety of choice...you can`t ask for more, will recommend it to anyone wishing... More
