Explore the island

Dry Island is a secluded, self contained tidal island set in the stunningly beautiful Badachro bay on the West Coast.

Take a breath

Now, perhaps more than ever, we all need to take time to ourselves and our families to take it all in. Life/work balance has got harder to judge, the pressures of the modern world need an antidote, and we like to think Dry Island helps everyone just slow down a wee bit.

We offer 3 places to stay, the Old Curing Station is part of the the main house and sleeps 2.

Otter Cabin is nestled right on the water’s edge and sleeps 2.

Captain’s Cabin is set among woodland and has good sea views.
