The Isle of Barra lies at the southern end of the chain of islands known as the Western Isles or the Outer Hebrides.

Getting here by air

Flybe operates a light aircraft service that lands on the Cockleshell beach (an experience in itself!) with daily flights from Glasgow.

Getting here by ferry

Caledonian MacBrayne operates a ferry service from Oban to Castlebay. The cruise on board a fully equipped modern car ferry takes around five hours, providing plenty of opportunity to relax and even spot a dolphin or whale on route.

There is also a ferry service from Eriskay to Barra with up to 5 crossings a day. The journey takes around 40 minutes across the Sound of Barra.

Isle of Barra Beach Hotel

The Isle of Barra Beach Hotel - Good News - We will reopen in May 2021

As a consequence of COVID-19, we were faced with a direct and unavoidable negative economic, staffing and social impact on our 2020 summer season which unfortunately left us with no alternative but to close for the whole period.

Prior to the Scottish Government opening up tourism this July, almost all our pre-booked 2020 guests had already selected to cancel or postpone their bookings into the 2021 season.

The good news; we are delighted to offer our 2020 tariff for all new 2021 bookings that we receive before the 30th September 2020. So, please send us an email inquiry and we will forward our current hotel availability.

We look forward to welcoming you to the hotel in 2021.

Take care - stay well and most importantly stay safe. ... See MoreSee Less

IOB I’ll see you on 2022 and we’ll done x

Our best wishes to you, we were wondering how you were getting along

Thankfully you've survived, how, only you know that but good luck, only wish I could come to visit and stay at the hotel again, been years since I did, before you were there but lots of happy memories.

Best wishes, stay healthy and happy, and we hope to see you soon!

I will be back.

We are booked for next August already instead of this year - can't wait!

We were really looking forward to coming back this year. All being well we'll make it over next year some time.

Wishing you all the best for the future. My dad stayed with you 3 years ago and he still got fond memories of his trip!

Best wishes to you and I’ll be back in 2022 or sooner if I can! ❤️

Donald Kennedy hopefully next year

Love your hotel
