Ceann na Pairc Guest House

Ceann na Pairc is a modern guest house on a working croft at Nunton on the west side of Benbecula, run by Catherine MacPhee and rated four stars by the Scottish Tourist Board. The lounge looks straight out over the croft, which is alive with birds, and Culla Bay's beach is a short walk down the road.

There are four en-suite guest rooms, three doubles and a twin, each with a TV with satellite channels, a hospitality tray and a shower room with complimentary toiletries. Breakfast is cooked to order, from a full Scottish to something lighter. Outside is a large decked area and garden, and there is secure storage for bikes and fishing gear. Free wifi throughout.

Rooms are £125 a night for two or £110 single occupancy, with a three-night minimum from April to October. Benbecula Airport is five minutes away and both ferry terminals about forty-five, so it suits corporate stays as well as holidays. Check-in is between 4pm and 6pm. No pets, and no smoking or vaping indoors. Book by phone or email, or through the enquiry form on the website.
