If you enjoy good food, a well equipped room, charming seaside views and great hosts- this is the place for you. I absolutely loved everything about my stay at Heir Island House, especially Claudia's and Craig's efforts to make you feel welcome and looked after! And Heir Island is just beautifull :)

Claudia and Craig, the hosts, are super friendly and provide all information needed well in advance. We got collected by Craig at the ferry and he brought our bags to the house allowing us to take a leisurely walk. Pizza nights are super busy, so make sure to book ahead.

Claudia and Craig were the perfect hosts, friendly, welcoming and enthusiastic. The house was in a great location, with a lovely garden. Room and bed well appointed - great nights sleep. Claudia is a great cook and breakfast and dinner were very enjoyable
