Warm welcome and a modern, well equipped, comfortable room. Great hosts and a very enjoyable complimentary glass of port enjoyed in the lovely guest lounge with a clear view of the ocean.. Comfortable bed and a breakfast worthy of five stars all by itself! The packed lunch was fresh and had enough items to give it a real 'picnic' feel.... More

I stayed here for 2 nights whilst in the area on business. The location is a little out of the centre but it looks onto the sea - and the owners have a car hire business for people without transport. Who wants to stay in the centre all the time anyway? The hosts are also very helpful in arranging other... More

We only stayed for one night, on a roadtrip around the Highlands & Islands, and wish we could have stayed for a week! By far the best accommodation of our holiday. The lady who runs it was a perfect host: upon arrival, check-in was slick and polished, and she even recommended and booked a restaurant for us for dinner. It's... More

For those of you who have not travelled on the western isles, let's face it, most of the B & Bs in Scotland are quite expensive. That said, Braighe House was a B & B I would go back to in a heartbeat. Yes, it's outside the epicenter of Stornaway (but if you have transportation, that's not a problem) but... More

Braighe House is a slightly upmarket guest house or B&B. We did not like the location, quite a way out of Stornoway on a busy main road with a very exposed and uninteresting view over the sea. There were no restaurants within walking distance and because dinner was not catered for this necessitated a taxi in and out of town... More

We stayed for one nigth prior to returning to the mainland. The house is impeccable and beautifully decorated but .... Our room was rather small, expecially when you have two large suitcases and other bags. I have stayed in many B&Bs over the years but question the 5 star rating which also reflects the price you pay. Breakfast was really... More

We stayed at Braighe House for just 1 night but wish it could have been more, especially after such a gorgeous breakfast in the morning! Alison and John were incredibly hospitable and had no problem accommodating some special dietary requirements we had. With a fantastic knowledge of not just Stornoway but much of the Outer Hebrides, Alison was able to... More

Alison and John took care of us when we stayed here for one night during our Honeymoon last year. When we arrived we were told (by the mother of one of them I think) that there was a problem, but it turned out to be minor - we couldn't check in straight away as John had to drive someone to... More

We stayed two nights at Braighe House whilst I was walking the 230 mile Timeless Way in the Outer Hebrides. The only negative things about it is that it's quite a way out of Stornoway for eating in the evening and it's expensive. That being said, you get what you pay for. And at Braighe House you get it all.... More

Braighe House is simply the best B&B we have ever visited. We have just returned from a multi island holiday in the inner and outer Hebrides staying at around seven different hotels. Braighe House is large property a couple of miles beyond Stornoway Airport and overlooking the sea with distant views to Skye. The elegant house if furnished to the... More
