Wardicott was an oasis on a hectic travelling schedule! Wonderful hosts, great accommodations, and phenomenal food that was well worth the price! We would have stayed longer if at all possible. Highly recommend Wardicott B&B to anyone. Tricky getting to it by bus, but use bus W5 and ask the bus drivers(very helpful).

Rod was a wonderful host--very helpful and knowledgeable. The hotel is clean and comfortable, and breakfasts are delicious.

First night in the Outer Hebrides

Excellent facility. Rod and his wife were the perfect hosts. Rod shared lots of local info with us. The rooms are lovely. We were greeted with a wee dram and cake. I already recommended the B&B to other friends.

Rod and Gloria were wonderful host. Our ferry arrived after dinner hours, so they prepared a platter of sandwiches so we'd have something for dinner. Rod greeted us upon arrival and provided an overview of the area and recommended various sites to see. We stayed at several B&Bs during our Scotland trip and this one was our favorite.

Great host & comfortable room with great view.

Wonderful 2 night stay at the Wardicott. Rod and Gloria run a very well thought out establishment, with everything you need, in a fabulous location (check out Tolsta and Garry beaches!) Rod ensures there are many personal touches, including a warm welcome and lots of useful information. Our bedroom was spacious, spotlessly clean and comfortable. The Wi-Fi signal was strong. Breakfast was great! Even for vegetarians. Highly recommend.

Rod and Gloria are wonderful hosts and Gloria is an amazing cook. We took up their offer to have dinner at Wardicott on our arrival night and it was amazing! We highly recommend the salmon. Rod was knowledgeable about all things Isle of Lewis and made some great recommendations for places to see. I wish we could have stayed on Lewis a bit longer so we could see more!

Warm and Homey

Location and property were perfect, with a welcoming treat from our host. We had everything we could need, fridge in the room, communal area only to ourselves (we were the only guests for a couple nights) and freshly made to order breakfast every morning. Would highly recommend and would book again on a future visit!
