Eilean Donan - Highlander House

Named after one of Scotland’s most photographed and recognised castles, this cliff-facing guest room, as with the other rooms on the 1st floor, delights with a 3.5m high ceiling and other original 1850’s elements like the fireplace, now converted to smokeless charm.

If you you’re a keen birder the mayhem of bird life beyond your window will enthrall as will the possibility to glimpse the resident hunting sparrow-hawk.

This room features a king size bed, 40-inch high definition TV, rustic smokeless fireplace and window seating for meals, workspace or relaxation.

(2-3 night minimum stay, single occupancy less 10%)

					  Highlander Hotel - great hospitality and environment - Great stay in Highlander House. Perfect location for exploring Bute. Gus and Sherry very welcoming and full of info to enhance our visit on the Island. Room was lovely with... read more great views over the bay. Bed really comfortable. The decor throughout the hotel was really interesting and pleasant. 

Some lovely touches of complimentary wine in the fridge and home made treats on the second day. Breakfasts great and Gus’s style of personalised friendly welcoming was lovely.  We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it as a perfect place to stay on Bute.

					  Absolutely "Bute iful"  - Highly recommend The Highlander House B&B, wow what a gem of a place and a fantastic stay! On arrival we were met by Gus who was super friendly and immediately... read more made James and I feel so welcome. Gus took the time to recommend places for us to visit around the island and places to eat which was super helpful as first time visitors and we thoroughly enjoyed exploring these. Our room was very well equipped, the coffee maker was a delight as was the mini fridge and content, to top it off the garden view was simply stunning and immaculately maintained. Breakfast was utterly divine each morning we felt spoiled, the extra attention to detail from Gus getting to know us and what we liked so he could prepare us something that would set us up for the day was truly exceptional, service above and beyond. All the extra touches throughout our stay were outstanding, so much so we added an extra night as we loved it so much. Gus truly ensures you have an enjoyable visit and one to remember he spends time getting to know his guests and introduces them to one an other which creates a wonderful atmosphere. We had the honour of spending a lovely afternoon with Gus and guests in his beautiful garden chatting away and enjoying the most stunning view sipping champagne (gus wore mine ooops) a laugh and a memory to be treasured. Can't thank the magnificent hosts Gus and Sherry enough for making our trip extra special. Already planning our next trip. Its a 12 out of 10 from us. Thank you very much for your hospitality, be proud of your establishment it's fantastic as are you.
