Beautifully appointed rooms, both the shared lounge and dining area and the bedrooms. Huge super king bed, really comfy. All the small details were thought of, all very luxurious and the best “guest house” we’ve ever stayed in .. more like a 5 star hotel! Carla and Chris are super hosts, and Chris’s cooking is out of this world so make sure you eat evening meal there xxxx

Prices for food and drink are quoted as “plus vat” which in the UK is a rather odd thing to do as nearly everything consumers pay for in the UK are normally quoted inclusive of vat as standard. This means a glass of wine at £9 is really costing you £11.80 and a 3 course dinner at £37.50 is actually going to cost you £45 each. This could be misleading to some guests who are working to a budget. It’s an unnecessary practice to quote “+vat” in the UK and I think they should stop doing it - please just show the price the guest will pay is what they see, rather than the guest having to add another 20% on. HOWEVER this is a minor irritation and should not detract from the lovely stay we had and the fab food, and superb facilities xxxx

Grianaig is top of the range. To get this excellent quality of accommodation, support from hosts, and outstanding food in a location which must bring its challenges to owners,---it is amazing. We very much appreciated Chris's initial tour of the facilities, guidance on local wild life( golden eagle gave a brilliant display!), and advice on visiting Kildonan Museum ( which we might have otherwise missed). Excellent shower. And there was a lovely friendly atmosphere which encouraged chats between visitors. Great range of drinks in honesty bar.

We appreciated everything

Food was amazing; hosts were attentive; rooms were clean as a whistle and comfortable beds. Absolutely lovely place to stay, and we loved the homely feel, the lounge area to relax in the evening and the coffee and honesty bar on tap. They've had a vision for this place, from years of experience elsewhere, and they're executing it very well.

There are a lot of rules, all of them for good reason, and all cheerfully delivered - but a lot of rules nonetheless! They work a system, and that system works, but you need to be willing to work within it - strict times for meals, check in check out times, strict house rules etc. But as I said, they make it work, so don't be put off!

The owners, Carla and Chris, were great hosts. The atmosphere in the guest house is relaxed and friendly. The food is absolutely incredible. The rooms are large, well equipped, and quiet. Carla alerted us when our ferry to the mainland was cancelled and provided useful advice in rejigging our travel plans. If you are travelling to South Uist, I think this would be the best accommodations you will find. Highly recommend.

Everything was great. I don't have any criticisms or anything to suggest for improvements.

Location of Grianaig House was perfect for exploring South Uist and connecting islands as it is located just off the main spinal road through the islands. The property had great contemporary decor, the room was very comfortable, warm and spotlessly clean. The bed extremely comfortable. Chris and Carla were fabulous hosts and their expertise and experience in hospitality very evident in how the Guest House was managed creating a wonderful relaxing space after a busy day sight seeing. Their advise and local knowledge was extremely helpful when planning a day exploring the area. The property sported a well stocked selection of alcoholic beverages and an 'honesty bar' system in place. Evening meals were offered and bookable daily. The food was of a very high standard, Chris is an excellent cook. My dietary requirements were acknowledged and very well catered for. We had an excellent stay and experience at Grianaig House and planning a return visit next year. Thank you Chris and Carla.

There was nothing we didn't like at this property. It ticked all the boxes for us when researching suitable accommodation on the island. Not having a television in our room was so beneficial to our overall stay making our holiday so much more relaxing for the seven nights we were there.

Carla and Chris have a wonderful location and offer a service that stands high above others. The place is perfectly kept and clean, rooms are large and well furnished. They were always ready to support us and when we had a problem with another booking reservation they helped us and solved it in minutes. The place offers also a restaurant service for dinner but forget home dining... Chris is a professional and what you will receive at your table is what you are expecting when dining at an high end restaurant. I have a regret: one of the evenings we wanted to try another place... big error. If you go to Uist you should not consider other places. We hope to be able to return soon!

We arrived by motorbike 7:45pm to a very friendly welcome from Carla and Chris. We ate on the boat (Oban-Lochboisdale) as we were too late for dinner. Shown our very comfy room and fantastically spacious shower room. Carla gave us some good advice on the local area. Great facilities for tea/coffee and cake! Honesty bar (we didn't use) available with huge selection of drinks and is very reasonably priced too. Lovely breakfast and then we were on our way to Stornoway :)

N/A

Carla and Chris are exceptional hosts. The place is warm, homelike, with every possible need looked after. Their service is flawless, the cooking unbelievable and the scenery spectacular. I can't image ever wanting to stay anywhere else in the Outer Hebrides.

The ferry service made leaving a challenge, but if you are prepared, it can be dealt with. Bring extra clothes and medicine and you will be fine.

Everything about this guest house is so very well planned. There is nothing awkwardly placed or dysfunctional. It’s a five star facility including, maybe especially- because of its operator Carla. She assisted in solving a problem that I’d grown frustrated trying to solve on my own. Dinner was prepared and served by an exceptional chef. The price is reasonable at that!

Pristine, luxury, high end amenities, Carla and Chris are professional hosts. The meals are beautiful, generous, top of the line ingredients, made in house breads and desserts. Big comfortable beds, quiet and warm. Location is perfect for exploring the area, walks, beaches nearby. Could stay there a month! 10 stars! Richard and Mary
