Brae Lea Guest House

Good location for Lochboisdale and the ferry. Good parking. Lovely room. A little small but a big bathroom and there is a big guest lounge. Very clean and tidy and with great views. Rupert is a great host, very knowledgable about the area - and the wildflife - and quite a character! Left before the crack of dawn for the ferry so can't comment on breakfast but I'd bet it would have been good! Recommended.

Stunning setting .....15 min walk across wee causeway from ferry and open through the winter!

We spent a lovely week at Brae Lea B&B in April. Conveniently situated a short distance from the Lochboisdale ferry terminal (quite walkable if you are reasonably able bodied and use a nearby footpath as a short cut), the guesthouse lacks for nothing. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable. All areas of the guesthouse seem to be recently and tastefully decorated. There is a guest sitting room with an outlook to the sea. Breakfasts are great, of high quality and with a number of choices including local specialities. Rupert, our host, was very welcoming and is knowledgeable about many aspects of the local area. We would definitely stay at Brae Lea again if visiting the islands We would definitely stay here again

Great stay lovely accommodation host Rupert was very helpful.

I cannot begin to describe what a wonderful experience I had while staying here. Rupert is the ultimate host. Witty, funny, and full of knowledge not only about Uist but also the rest of the Outer Hebrides and surrounding areas. He sends you an email long before your travel date detailing what to expect along with dining recommendations. Upon arrival you find his humorous and fact filled travel guide waiting for you in your room. We had a couple of discussions on what to see and where according to my schedule along with Rupert providing pictures he had taken to show me what to look for. On top of all this, you start your day with his freshly prepared breakfast (eggs and local smoked salmon-you bet!). The accommodations are clean, welcoming and full of local art and supplies. You cannot go wrong staying here. A true gem!!

Great place in a great location. Rupert is a great host, who will go above and beyond to make your visit perfect, will definitely be staying again on future visits, really appreciated the last minute takeaway coffee + Packed lunch during breakfast - Gavin

Lovely welcoming home. Easy to walk into Portree. Fantastic views from dining room and bedroom.

Rupert, the landlord has gone to a lot of trouble to conder everything a guest might want, there is even an EV charger just outside, (install the Zest App before arriving). If you are catching the ferry, book a breakfast ahead of time as it is first come first served. The ferry terminal is a 5 minute drive from the B&B
