We stayed here for one night on our tour of the Western Isles and were blown away. It's a great location in one of the most outstanding areas of Scotland. I loved the history of the place and it's unusual setting. We were greeted by Andy the owner who made us feel right at home. Our room was comfortable and... more

When I came across the Gallan Head webpage the hotel (as it calls itself) looked quite nice and I also read the overwhelming critics on Tripadvisior, so we decided to book in for two nights. When we arrived we were quite surprised and disappoited. I must say, I cannot understand all the excellent reviews this place has received. I had... more

Our 30th wedding anniversary. So I wanted to find something quiet to enjoy. Gallan Head was spot on, a restaurant with excellent food, and 5 rooms for those not wanting to travel home afterwards. Being so far from civilisation it makes sense to stay over. The rooms are basic but comfortable. The views are stunning, the beaches the best in... more

Make the effort to go here....and wake up at dawn to see the sea and Gollan Head , FROM YOUR WINDOW! The owner Andy is so helpful and will guide you to the most perfect beaches, and then make fabulous food for you!(World famous Stornoway black pudding every morning too!) For the adventurous there is Seatrek nearby to go to... more

Very friendly welcome from Andy who runs the place well, keeps guests informed about what to do and where to go, and cooks at the same time. Very good food (local diver-caught scallops are fantastic). Amazing, spectacular location on headland over the Atlantic, which is unusual in Outer Hebrides where so many places are inland or on the eastern (sheltered)... more

Stayed here for one night in May as part of a three night trip to Lewis & Harris. Picked on the basis of recommendations on this site and wasnt disapointed. We were driving so found it easy to get to, arrived when it was pretty quiet so got chatting to Andy, the owner - all very welcoming. Location is fab... more

Stayed 2 nights at the Gallan Head b&b with a friend. Great welcome, clean and comfortable rooms, spacious bathroom. We also eat at the restaurant - very nice menu, delicious food, well presented, and a very relaxed atmosphere. Great breakfast too - only gripes (and I stress they are minor ones all things considered) were the coffee (instant!) and the... more

I planned this trip as a Birthday suprise for my partner and we had an amazing time. Andy, the owner made us feel incredibly welcome and spoiled us throughout the trip. The food he prepares is of a very high standard - make sure you try the whisky custard! The rooms are spotlessly clean and comfortable with a choice of... more
