    The apartment is super cozy and Alison kindly lit the stove for us each afternoon so it was warm on return from our adventures.

    We forgot to order breakfast before our stay, not realising we should have done this at booking, but we were provided with an array of delicious goodies and home produce from the Croft so that we didn’t go hungry, super kind!     read less

Because we were out fishing the whole time, we didn't manage to spend much time with them. When we come back one day we hope to find the time to drink coffee and have more chats together. The house is beautifully situated and perfect to explore the island from there. read less

On our first morning we had the most locally sourced breakfast we have ever had. Literally everything on the plate was from the island and we were educated on what bacon should really taste like! Alison has a huge selection of DVDs to borrow, which we were grateful for as we were staying in December and it went dark quite early. We really enjoyed meeting the Highland calves and the collies....oh how we loved the collies! They were always there to greet us when we came home in the evenings.

    The flat itself is self contained and fully equipped....especially the (Website hidden by Airbnb) you have the option of keeping yourself to yourself. But Alison and Sandy are just through the doors into the main house if you need them, and they're so helpful and hospitable and make you feel like old friends! I would recommend that you take the opportunity to feed the calves and hang out with the collies! This is a chance to gain an insight into crofting that you may not get again....unless you're tempted to move up to Lewis as we were!

    And the location, what can I say? Beautiful views. Just a proper escape...we loved it! Make sure you visit Gallery 5 in the village if you get chance, and bag yourself some local art too!

    Thanks again Alison and Sandy! 🙂     read less

Everything about our stay was comfortable, and I highly recommend it for anyone traveling in this area. The location is prime for local attractions like the standing stones at Callanais. It's an easy, gorgeous drive to the ferries at either Stornoway or Tarbert. The B&B is situated on a working croft, and it was nice getting to learn a little from Ali and Sandy about they run the croft - the breakfast is almost entirely sourced right from their croft! Ali and Sandy are incredibly friendly, and wonderful to chat with! We will definitely return to Ceann Bodaich the next time we are vacationing on Lewis! read less

We were welcomed onto their property by 3 collies, a pony, a horse and several chickens (The good life) , amazing and all so friendly i was later to find out! Sandy was away for most of our stay but Ali was fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble for her, telling as top notch places to visit. The breakfasts every morning were great, the variety wouldn't be out of place in a five star hotel in fact you wouldn't have got such good produce in a five star hotel. The only issue was it was too short but we will be back hopefully next year. Thanks again Ali for the 5 star service read less

    Alison was a fantastic host. Check in was simple and she provided us with great local info and a welcoming cup of tea and cake on arrival!

    Every day, whilst we were out, Alison put on the stove for us coming home. This was a fantastic touch, which we greatly appreciated.

    Overall, a lovely place with great hosts. Strongly recommend!     read less
