Located on the stunning Isle of Kerrera off the coast of Oban, Kerrera Bunkhouse is a great place for a family or group of friends to stay. Set on the south end of the island, it is an amazing place for a break away from it all! A short ferry ride and a delightful coastal walk will take you back in time.
IMPORTANT:
The last ferry is at 6pm. See Calmac website for timetable
You cannot bring your car to the island
It's a 2 mile walk each way to us

The space
The Bunkhouse (Accommodation Space)
The Bunkhouse is a cute space with 4 bunk beds downstairs and a double and single upstairs. We supply bedding, but guests will need to make up their beds and strip them when they leave. There are no shops on the island, so you will need to bring all your food and drinks with you. There is a fridge and small freezer for you to use, along with a cooker, oven, microwave, kettle and lots of pots, pans and utensils. There is an adjoining toilet and shower next door and we provide towels.

The Byre (Hangout/eating space)
Just outside the bunkhouse is our amazing Byre. This was traditionally used to keep animals in but these days it is strictly for humans! It's the epitome of cosy - woodburning stove, sofas, books, large dining table and a wonderful view of Gylen Castle. You can hang out here on rainy days and bring your evening meals to eat together at the large table and the comfy chairs by the fire are perfect to enjoy a wee dram or two!

The shower and toilet are joined onto the bunkhouse but you need to walk outside to access them.

Guest access
You will have the Bunkhouse, Byre and toilet/shower to yourself. There is a secondary toilet just outside the bunkhouse that is shared with the Cafe.
The adjoining building to the bunkhouse is where our indoor seating is for the cafe and this space can also be used by our guests. The cafe is open from 11 - 4 Wednesday to Sunday so the outside space behind the bunkhouse is used for customer seating.

Other things to note
There is no mobile phone signal here (Except for EE), as we are in a valley. If you climb the hill, then you can pick it up. There is no wifi in the Bunkhouse, but there is in the Byre.
Bring a torch! All the amenities are in separate buildings so it's a handy thing to save you stumbling around in the dark.
You need to take the ferry from Gallanach Road, about 1 mile outside of Oban. Check out the Calmac website for the timetable and location details. In summer they run very regular, less so in winter. There are no ferries between 12:30pm and 2pm and the last scheduled ferry is 6pm. You can arrange a 7pm boat by contacting Calmac.
