Hayhoull Bed & Breakfast

Bigton is set on the south west side of the island, and includes the world famous St Ninian’s Isle, a small island linked to the mainland by a sand tombolo, the largest of its kind in Britain. The island was settled in pre-norse times and the remains of an old chapel are still visible.

Five minutes walk from St Ninian’s sands, with many more picture perfect beaches close by, you will be spoilt for choice AND how better to enjoy your breakfast than by feasting on the beautiful, unrestricted views of St Ninian’s Isle and westward to Foula.

The South Mainland offers you the opportunity for walking, bird watching, fishing, cycling, exploring historic sites such as Mousa, Jarlshof and Scatness or simply enjoying the coastline and the abundance of wildlife in the area.

Mary extends a warm and friendly welcome to her guests, and will do everything she can to ensure you enjoy your stay. She offers a hearty breakfast, with evening meals available upon request, where the majority of special diets can be catered for, on prior arrangement. Local, organic ingredients are used depending on availability.
