We booked Ceol na Mara Guest House in Tarbert, Harris through Booking.com as a one night stop in our touring holiday in the Outer Hebrides but how we wished we had time to stay longer! We stayed in the Blue Room and were very impressed with its beautiful furnishings and quality bedding - a little bit of luxury after driving... More

Ceol na Mara Guest House is one of my wife and I favorite B&Bs on our Scotland trip this past May. We had the Blue Room, which was very cute and had complimentary whiskey/sherry. Marlene and John were both very nice and sociable. The price of the B&B is more expensive than other B&Bs in Scotland, but appeared to be... More

This is exceptionally good accommodation. Much more than a B&B. Superbly comfortable, spotlessly clean, totally relaxing, with first class facilities. The location is excellent, so peaceful yet very near Tarbert where choice of evening meals is good. The breakfast choice is beyond comparison with any other B&B visited, the produce used is excellent quality, beautifully cooked and presented. Marlene and... More

We arrived at Tarbert having taken a ferry from Uist. The miserable weather that we were experiencing made us hope for a real welcome which was more than achieved by the fantastic greeting John and Marlene extended. The bedroom was large and very comfortable and the lounge nearby was a perfect place for a cup of tea.The breakfast was brilliant... More

We were a group of 4 staying in 2 rooms for one night only whilst travelling through the Western Isles moving from Harris to The Uists. Our first impression of Ceol na Mara was 'Wow'! Situated in a quiet location near to Tarbert with stunning views visible from all windows. We were staying in the Lemon and Blue rooms -... More

Ceol Na Mara was the second stop on our tour of the Outer Hebrides and we stayed two nights. John and Marlene are excellent hosts and made us feel immediately welcome. Their B&B is near enough to Tarbert if you want the town and its amenities but the location feels delightfully remote with stunning views. The property is kept in... More

This is a superb place to stay if you are visiting South Harris. It is close to Tarbert, but is in a quiet location overlooking a loch. Rooms are very comfortable, and the breakfasts are more than wonderful - a culinary experience in both taste and presentation.

This was our second visit, and it did not disappoint. It has all you would expect of 4* gold with every room superbly appointed and those extra touches. The breakfast is something to behold with a very wide chosice and everything freshly prepared. Try the porridge with whisly soaked sultanas or the special muesli, or the local kipper or salmon... More
