Eating out
There are several places to eat out but it is best to check timetables out of season and advised to book in the busy summer months.
The Badachro Inn
This is one of our favourite spots. Fabulous location overlooking the sea with a warm and friendly atmosphere. You can go here alone and feel relaxed or turn up with a bunch of children and dogs and feel equally welcome. Lunches and dinner served. Open all winter but on restricted days. The Badachro Inn 'Stag and Dough' pizza van is now open, serving some seriously excellent aritsan pizzas!

A fantastic location, mostly for evening meals but also has a bar with an extensive hand picked gin and whisky menu. Fine dining with excellent food. Stalking and fishing also available here.
This is under new management and I'm not sure what is happening (if anything?!)
