Location - The beautiful isle of Barra is a 23 square mile island located approximately 80 miles from the mainland, reached by either ferry crossing from Oban and Eriskay or by air from Glasgow Airport, with the planes landing on the island’s beach runway (Ann Traigh Mhor – a fantastic mile long sandy beach). Isle of Barra Airport is consistently voted the world’s most scenic landing location for scheduled flights and is believed to be the only airport in the world to have regular scheduled landings on a beach. The Isle of Barra is often described as the jewel of the Hebrides with its spectacular beaches, rugged landscaped and flower laden machair, while the wildlife rich isles of Vatersay (linked by a causeway to Barra) and Mingulay (accessed by boat) are equally stunning and also boast idyllic beaches. The beaches in Barra and Vatersay are among the very best in the world with fabulously white sands and crystal clear waters. The beaches offer large and empty stretches of perfect sand and are also popular with sea kayakers and surfers. The wildlife on the island is stunning, with numerous opportunities for wildlife watching including seals, golden eagles, puffins, guillemots, kittiwakes and corncrakes, which this home is named after, with oyster catchers and plovers on the seashore. There are numerous archaeological sites on the island and full information can be obtained from the Barra Heritage and Cultural Centre which is based in Castlebay.
