Frommer's Review

Owners Bryan and Marion run this cozy modern farmhouse near the geographical center of the island, within walking distance of everything. The comfortable rooms in the main house have easy access to the large kitchen, whose brick hearth is the focal point of the farm. The cottage has two bedrooms, a sitting room, and a kitchen. There are no food shops on the island, so you have to bring your own supplies, as the rates for the cottage don't include meals. The Taylor's 2.8 hectares (7 acres) are a sheep farm, and they augment their income by knitting and spinning -- you can order a custom-made, handknit sweater.

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
