About
Tigh na Mara Guest House, Isle of Barra
Tigh na Mara - as it's Gaelic name suggests, is just by the sea and is a family‑run guest house offering high‑quality bed and breakfast accommodation all year round. Just two minutes from the Castlebay ferry terminal and nine miles from the Ardmhor/Eriskay ferry and the famous Barra beach airport, it’s perfectly placed for exploring Barra’s beaches, bays and rugged coastline - made famous by the film Whisky Galore.
From the guest house, it’s only a short stroll to Castlebay’s shops, hotels and bus stop, making everything you need close at hand. Overlooking the harbour is one of Barra’s most iconic sights: Kisimul Castle, the medieval stronghold of Clan MacNeil rising dramatically from the sea. Its presence adds a touch of history and romance to any stay, and it’s one of the island’s most memorable visitor experiences.
Comfortable rooms, friendly hospitality and an unbeatable location make Tigh na Mara an ideal base for discovering the scenery, heritage and warm island character of Barra.
