We were island hopping in the Hebrides for a week and I have no hesitation in saying that Planasker was the highlight of the B&B's we chose. Martin & Heather added a bed to the gallery area to accomodate myself, partner and mother-in-law and all our expectations of the schoolhouse were surpassed. We were warmly welcomed, as was our dog.... More

We could not fault the Old School in any area. Fantastic accommodation and food with hosts that could not do any more for you. The fact you have your own lounge and gorgeous wood burning fire just added to the experience and we will definitely be back with our dog Charlie again. A big thank you to Heather and Martin. More

Wonderful B&B - not conventional in that you have your own self contained quarters - large living room bedroom bathroom and small study / library - only one couple/group can stay at a time so no whispered breakfast conversations! The breakfasts are excellent with all the usual Scottish goodies and dinner can be provided too The restoration has been brilliantly... More

We visited Planasker Old School last June for one night and said we would return for longer next time. We have just returned from a 2 night stay and from the minute we arrived felt right at home and started our stay with a very welcomed cup of tea/coffee and cake. Heather and Martin are helpful and friendly, nothing is... More

Almost don't want to tell anyone about this place as we want to keep it to ourselves. It was in a fantastically quiet and beautiful location, the house was gorgeous and Martin and Heather made us feel really welcome with special treats and a great breakfast. We would recommend to anyone and will hopefully go back ourselves at some point. More

Staying at the Old Schoolhouse was the highlight of our trip to Scotland. If you want to experience the beauty of Lewis, stay with some of the most welcoming and hospitable hosts, and get a taste of history, stay at Planasker Old Schoolhouse. This is a gem of a home--and it really feels like a home. The building is immaculate... More

We choose Planasker Old School from the website because of the sympathetic renovation of the property. It took me back to my old school days in Ireland and my husband loved all the attention to detail with furniture, ornaments and fittings sourced from far and wide. We have never received the level of hospitality Heather and Malcolm gave us anywhere... More

We only stayed here one night and really wished we had booked for more! The school is so beautifully decorated and there has been real attention to quality and detail when making this place. We were welcome with coffee, cake and port and an open fire. The lounge was so cosy with an array of scottish music and books. Breakfast... More
