About

The Eyrie Byre reflects the real Harris. You won't be finding a widescreen TV or hot tub here. It is ideal if you love to watch the wildlife whilst having breakfast, and just need somewhere warm and dry to come home to after a long day on the hill or beach. It is not unusual to spot seals, eagles, divers and otters from the windows, and it is wonderful to be aware of the tide's movements, and watch the constant changing colours and light on the water and hills.

Accommodation simply comprises of an open plan kitchen/living room, which converts to bedroom at night. There is a loft area for you to store kit, and an entrance porch which serves for boots, coats etc. The shower room has a large electric shower, basin and toilet. The kitchen is equipped with oven, hob, fridge, kettle and toaster.
There is a wood-burner which you may wish to light, but we find that during the summer months this is never needed.
There is no wifi, but if you are with Vodafone, Tesco or EE, you stand a good chance of having 3 or 4G. There is no TV, just a radio.

Canoe
On very calm days guests are invited to use our open canoe. Buoyancy aids provided.
Dogs 
We allow well behaved dogs by prior arrangement.
