Location

Perched on the hill overlooking Arisaig bay, Downey Birch House is a short walk for The Old Library Restaurant and Rhue Café - both serving locally caught fresh fish, and the Arisaig Hotel. Arisaig Marina has a lovely gift shop and café, and the Shearwater ferryboat cruises the small isles daily during the season. Arisaig railway station, the Land Sea & Island Centre and all village amenities are a step away.

Around Arisaig there are breath-taking walks, stunning secluded white sandy beaches, and a wealth of wildlife as well as daily boat trips with regular sightings of seals, porpoise, minke whale, basking shark, and loads of bird life.
For bed & breakfast or a self catering holiday to remember, along the Road to the Isles, Downey Birch House is the ideal antidote to the stresses of life, and a real home from home.

Reviews from guests

“Beautiful setting and accommodation warm, comfortable, cosy and clean. Lots to do and lots to see in the area with some of the most beautiful beaches we have ever seen. Made to feel very welcome by Fiona and Michael and hope to visit again some day soon. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to 'switch off' from the rat race!” Lesley B, March 2013
