Kerrera Tea Garden & Bunkhouse in Argyll & Bute

Visited with a group of friends and I had the brownie. Absolutely delicious - the hint of coconut was an interesting touch but it worked. Highly recommended!

Highly recommend. Good simple fare but really this is a great hal day activity. We drove about 10 minutes south of Oban for the ferry. I think there may also be a bus. In summer the ferry goes whenever it's full so nearly every 15 min. It takes 5 minutes to cross and honestly it took longer e purchase the tkts via app. The walk to the tea house is about an hour. Very hilly but paved or packed gravel. Castle an additional 20 min walk. Tea house has indoor and outdoor picnic tables. Bathroom. Cakes definitely worth the walk. We got in kinda late like 2 and many foods sold out. Soup and crusty roll was awesome

Had a much needed bowl of home made soup after a lovely walk from the ferry to the castle on south of the island. You can visit before or after going to the castle. We knew they were closed Tuesday and Wednesday so knew to avoid going on these days. If taking the car to the ferry suggest arriving by 10:30am as parking is limited.

Stopped on our hike our Kerrera. Got a sandwich and brownie to share. We got it to go and stopped mid way on our 10k hike to eat it. Our only disappointment was that we didn't order 2 of each. The sandwich was delicious with some kind of chutney sauce. And the brownie was arguably one of the best I've ever had. I would love that recipe. The staff was also very friendly and the service very fast. I don't know if they sell out fast, so plan to stop earlier than later.

Perfect stop for lunch and such a pretty cottage in a beautiful Location. My only concern is that I felt we were back in COVID lockdown as we were instructed (via do not enter signs) to keep back from the cottage as our orders were being taken over the fence. I think a more honest name would be Takeaway, not tea garden. The food was excellent but we didn’t feel the love.

Lovely and necessary stop on the circular Kerrera route but not sure I could say it was reasonably priced as others have stated. Although delicious, the lentil soup was £6.95! We both had a rustic roll with ham and cheese, a slither of plastic sliced cheese and rather a dry roll with the measliest spread of chilli jam and wafer of ham! Just shy of £27 for one soup, two sandwiches and two cans of pop….think I’ll bring a pack up next time!

We arrived on a very hot day after walking from the ferry and this was a very welcome stop. The tea was good and the location was hard to beat. And they refilled my water bottle.

Very welcome stop and nice food but what a lost of waste created. I love a tea garden even more with a mug and a plate not two bags, foil, compostable cup and plastic lid all to be thrown away. Just before we arrived at the tea garden I picked up rubbish (2 used soup cartons) from the path.

2.5 miles from the ferry landing, this is a very welcome stop for food and a cup of tea before heading for Glyen Castle. We had Granny's lentil soup and chorizo stew - both vegan I assume, but I cheated and added chopped chorizo and parmesan cheese to my chorizo stew. They came with a warm crusty roll and butter. There was a good range of cakes too.

Had really lovely soup and coffee at the tea garden, while walking the southern circuit of Kerrera. But this small meal created an enormous amount of waste. Everything was served in compostable containers, inside paper bags or on cardboard trays. There were a range of recycling bins with instructions on how to dispose of everything responsibly in order to save the planet. Couldn’t help thinking a better way to help save the planet would be to use proper crockery and cutlery and wash it up. It would also pleasanter to eat and drink from. It kind of spoiled the nice food, and wasn’t at all what we expected from the way the garden presents itself.

Petit échoppe au bout du monde , à deux pas du château de Gylen, vous l’atteignez après 4 km de marche à la descente du bac … un paysage à couper le souffle … une terrasse posée sur un promontoire très sympathique où vous dégusterez gâteaux , boissons chaudes … parfait ! Et à prix raisonnables , le personnel est très sympathique en prime ..

Food and drink is still all very good but they really need a shelter for people to get out of the wind and rain. Come get your lovely food and sit on the hill in the rain. Used to be so much friendlier but now you order from one gate move to another gate to pay. All very strict and institutional.

I missed our 14 day deadline to write a review on Airbnb and needed to say how special this place is. My husband and I stayed there with our dogs in April. It's not one of the places that we would normally have booked but we were stuck and I'm so happy that we did. The bunkhouse itself is dinky but has everything you need for cooking and sleeping. The outdoor toilet and shower (not outdoor but you have to walk 15 feet to get to it) was surprisingly warm and clean and with really good water pressure - I loved it! If we needed more room we went over to the Byre - it's just perfect. It's got comfy sofas, a wood burning stove and plenty of space to hang out...super super cosy with great views to the sea. Hanging out in the Byre after a day of dog walking in the rain was just perfect. Aideen and Martin are wonderful hosts and make the most beautiful cakes and soups. We brought some groceries but we could have just lived off of soup and cakes for our stay. They were able to provide us with such delights even after the tea house was closed, we just had to ask. My hubby was really really skeptical about this place but left really really impressed. Both the accommodation and food are amazing!!!

Wir waren auf der Insel Kerrera und besuchten das Teehaus. Es ist wundervoll und mit Liebe dekoriert. Es gibt Tee, Kaffee und Kuchen. Es kann jetzt mit EC-Karte bezahlt werden. Die Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.

En route to the rugged south coast and isolated gylen castle....a stop at the kerrera tea gardens and bunkhouse is a must..unique....reasonably priced...delicious homemade soup and home baking. Friendly owners.. Lovely walk on the island of kerrera made special.

Amazing place about an hour's walk from the ferry. Wonderful setting by Gylen Castle. Plenty of seating outdoors plus indoor tables in a semi-open barn. Friendly service. We had delicious lemon drizzle cake and coffee. Menu is on their website. This was the perfect stopping point on the long circular walk back to the ferry. Next time we'll stay longer and have lunch.

Lovely walk from the ferry terminal to this place. There's a good number of tables outside and also some indoor seating. You order at the fence near the house and wait to collect. Apart from coffee and cakes they also do soup and a roll. Coffee and cakes were very good and prices were reasonable.

A must stop lunch spot if you are visiting Kerrera. We were fortunate with the weather when we visited, but they have a lovely indoor seating area as well as benches outdoors so you can enjoy some food whatever the weather. They have a bike rack also which was handy. We were greeted and served in a friendly and welcoming manner. We had the homemade soup and shared a slice of lemon drizzle cake. Both were delicious. The soup was packed full of vegetables and served with a crusty roll and butter (would have been better if it was homemade bread but it was still good!) The lemon drizzle cake was moist with a lovely lemon flavour throughout the sponge. I also liked that they had clearly labelled recycling bins with a focus on reducing wastage. Definitely stop for a bite to eat if you visit Kerrera for the day.

What an amazing find. The staff are lovely and the food really tasty. We had homemade lentil soup and stovies. It is a tea garden but there is indoor space provided for bad weather. There’s an emphasis on recycling, and a lovely wee loo. A welcome refuel while doing the circular walk 😊

My wife and I took the walk from the ferry terminal to the Kerrera Tea Garden. The weather was beautiful. The menu was varied and the we were met by one of the staff who was very friendly and helpful. Food was delivered very quickly...

I'm glad I made the visit as I always wanted to fo having read so much about the place. The walk from the ferry is outstanding and we'll worth the trip. The tea room wasn't what I was expecting. The menu is small, over priced...

As a couple of seniors we were really ready for a drink and sit down, not disappointed at the goodies on offer. Well done JP.

An excellent place for a drink and a bite when walking on Kerrera. Close to Gylen castle at the southern end of the island, the café works as a sort of takeaway. You place your order over the garden hedge and then wait for them...

I stopped here on a walk around the island. The food is fantastic. I had the most amazing chickpea stew. I don’t really a like chickpeas but wanted something hot and substantial, and thought that someone, somewhere must be able to make them taste good...

I gave 5 stars overall because the chef came out to talk to me. 4 stars combined for the service and the lemon drizzle cake - excellent. Check the notice board at the ferry ramp to ensure they are open.

Stopped for lunch break on Southern circular walk of island . All benches were busy but very happily sat on wall & enjoyed best lentil soup ever & scrumptious, light lemon drizzle cake. Very scenic spot and such a beautiful quirky set up too. Fab...

We brought a pack up to the island as we have quite fussy kids, but we all enjoyed a wee cake before heading back to the ferry. My brownie was perfect and I didn't get a look in on my son's lemon drizzle (despite giving...

First of all there is a great selection of teas which tasted okay. The waitress was friendly. Benches were comfortable

This little house is simply charming in the middle of a stunning landscape. It is the perfect place to stop for a little break during a biking day on Kerrera. We had homemade lentil soup and homemade blueberry muffin: absolutely scrumptious!! Due to social distancing...

Lovely spot for a break when walking on Kerrera. Friendly service and nice selection. Best toilet on the island! ....

Stoped on our way to the castle, lovely cupa and cake and very well set up for social distancing, defiantly lunch with a view

Although the tea garden was closed while visiting the island we would still like to give a massive thank you to Martin for helping us out. We had a situation with one of our bikes and Martin saved the day and ensured we got back...

The sun was shining, the welcome was just as warm as the weather, the Lemon Drizzle cake was fantastic, and the coffee was perfect. As a stopping off point on a walk around the wonderfully scenic Isle of Kerrera, this was just perfect, and it...

A hidden gem, recommended by friends and family, walkers and sea kayakers. Delicious home baking! Warming soup accompanied by homemade bread and cake. Welcoming, helpful reception and safe Covid practice. Have already passed the recommendation on and will def return! Thank you!

The tearoom was a perfect place to stop and refuel after a full morning of walking, swimming and exploring. The staff were super friendly, and the tall gentleman who served us went above and beyond to give us some great tips on the local sights...

Thanks to the lovely people at the tea garden, really made our walk round the island a little bit more luxurious. Great sandwiches on homemade bread, and they were very accommodating given the current circumstances with COVID. They had a sensible one way system, and...

After taking advice to follow the teapots, we found this brilliant cafe. Tired after a walk, the idea of a hot soup and fresh bread was exactly what was needed. Of course, a cup of tea and a slice of cake needed to follow (how...

After our annual hike around Kerrera island we always stop for homemade soup and cakes at the tea house. Best soup ever. Lovely views and tables outside and inside (when not in Covid) with super friendly staff. Limited hours do check ahead and with Covid...

What a lovely surprise! Coping well with Covid restrictions, this lovely little cafe provided unexpectedly good baguettes and homemade cake in a fab setting. Wish we'd known about the pre-ordering.

Lovely to go back and enjoy homemade lentil soup, lemon drizzle cake and chocolate brownie. Do book ahead and give them notice you are going and then you won’t be disappointed. Limited opening hours and menu but well worth it. Felt very Covid safe .

La isla de Kerrera ya es un lugar especial pero esta casa de té tiene magia. Por su idílico lugar y por sus pasteles y limonada casera. Todo tenía muy buena pinta. El personal muy amable, el lugar maravilloso con terracita en bonito jardín y comedor interior. Viendo las fotos te darás cuenta de la maravilla del lugar. Recomiendo una escapada de 1 día a esta isla (Kerrera, a 10min en barquito dsde Oban) con varias rutas de senderismo, en especial la que pasa por esta tetería que está muy cercana también a las ruínas del Gylen Castle. En dicha tetería también puedes hacer noche porque también es hotel y restaurante.

Stopped at tearoom on walk around island. Had to wait for a seat due to nice weather and lots of walkers but not for long. Staff friendly and chatty. We had coffee and cake with adequate choices. Others were having home made soup and commented on how nice it was. It was a welcome rest on our walk.

These tearooms make a welcome break from the 7 mile walk round delightful Kerrera.There's a varied menu with fresh, homemade specials to refresh and revive the weary.We shared the salmon pate special, a slice of lemon drizzle cake and a pot of tea for two...just the job on a hot day in late September!I can't remember what I paid, so it must have been about right.The walk round Kerrera is a favourire of ours, with a bit of everything - a flat starter section, gradual uphills, a ruined castle, wildlife and the like all the while with great views N, S E & W. Our waitress was fine, but asked us three times whilst we were eating if we wanted anything else, then gave us the bill before we'd finished - even though space wasn't an issue. The cake was good, not great. Mine host must have been having an off day as he could be clearly heard remonstrating with a member of staff in too loud a voice.Overall, recommended, and well worth the wait for your turn over on the ferry!

Took the ferry from Oban to the Isle of Kerrera today to walk/trek out to the Gylen Castle and stop at the Kerrera Tea Garden. The ferry leaves from Gallanach Oban during the non tourist season. There are additional trips made out of the Oban Marina during the busy summer months. For a cost of £3.20 each the ferry takes the 5 minute ride, walkers and bikes only, to the Isle and drops you off. There are a few treks that you can take, one is a 2 hour walk out to the castle and back while the other is a 4 hour loop taking you past the castle and around the other side of the Isle and back to the ferry.The trek is easy, with a gravel path leading the way. Dogs are allowed if leashed. Once you make it to the Tea Garden you can stop for a nice snack, with daily specials of soups and breads or scones and tea. Great food and the views are amazing. What a peaceful spot to have lunch.

We stopped here for a morning coffee and cake on our walk around the island.Sat in the garden in the sunshine and had wonderful service and delicious lemon drizzle cake .Dog friendly too ! Diolch yn fawr ! 😊

L'isola di Kerrera è perfetta per una passeggiata, anche se non si è escursionisti esperti. Al termine del percorso più breve, vicino al Castello di Gylen, c'è questa bella casetta scozzese che offre ristoro in mezzo al verde ed ai fiori. Noi ci siamo stati in una bella giornata ed abbiamo mangiato fuori: piatti dolci e salati molto buoni. I proprietari sono molto gentili e cortesi.

On the island of Kerrera and next to Gylen Castle this is a perfect place for a stop to recharge before setting back out on the hike. Soft drinks and tea only. Nice lite food for the traveler.

Visited on a gorgeous sunny day. A warm welcome and delicious food. We all had salmon pate with a vibrant salad. Really recommend if you go over to the island to call in!

Kerrera is WELL WORTH the hike, and the Tea Garden is a perfect lunch spot. Fresh specials daily, and the food and portion size was perfect for hiking. We didn't feel 'heavy' after lunch, food was light and fresh.If you do plan on seeing Gylen Castle, we chose to hike the short distance there, then come back for lunch & continue on. That was a good option for us.What I also loved about the Tea Garden - is that they had an actual loo! It looked like an outhouse, but was a proper toilet & sink to wash up. A very pleasant, and much-appreciated, surprise.Definitely recommend!

We chose to take the long walk around the whole island instead of the shorter route from the mid island ferry. It was a peaceful walk through beautiful scenery and we even saw some seals! The walk was quite long and in hot conditions so the Tea-room was very welcome when we finally got there! Staff were friendly and food very tasty. They let us fill up our water bottles which was great on such a hot day. We took the shorter journey back...

Lovely tea room with plenty of options and a warm welcome. Loved the little teapots next to the road leading up to the tea room and the wordplays :-)

Had the unfortunate experience of been on kerrera with no packed lunch, so visited the tea room. Talk about captive audiences. £2 for a can of coke...£1.80 for a small bottle of water and dont ask about the price of a very very frozen icecream...! the soup was close to £6 and a small portion to boot,3 tiny slices of French baguette accompanied the bland watery so called homemade tomato and basil soup. So suggest you avoid this place, save yourself a fortune and bring your own food along to the island. The staff looked as miserable as the food. Avoid!

Lovely stop off. I had a scone and soup. Both LOVELY!! Only thing is there wasn’t enough seats for everyone so another family had to squeeze on a bench with my family.

It was a day of serious monsoon like rain. Nevertheless we braved the ferry and the hour long walk...just us and the sheep. Guiding us on our way were a series of tea pots attached to fence posts and a tree. We turned up with water running off us. Even our wet weather gear had succumbed to the intensity of the rain. What a joy it was to be welcomed into the old converted Byre that is the indoor part of this wonderful tea garden. We had tea and scones and cake and the rain got heavier. We then abandoned thoughts of heading to the castle and decided we should just return to the ferry...but first we should have soup. The most delicious lentil soup warmed us through and gave us the energy to face the walk back. Thank you Kerrera Tea Garden for being so terrific.

Excellent lunch stop on Kerrera... after our walk from the ferry (follow the teapot signs) we arrived at the idilic tearoom and were met by a lovely member of staff! We chose to sit outside in the beautiful garden however inside was lovely and the free water top up station much needed! There is a board of specials which offers homemade treats. The salmon pate was fantastic followed by the lemon drizzle cake was the best I have ever had! Overall a truly iddilic location, lovely staff and excellent food... all very reasonably priced! We will definitely be back to this little bit of paradise!!

Everything was good quality (tea, coffee and cake) and the service was excellent. Very hard to fault

It's not easy to get to - across a passenger ferry and then walk for a couple of miles, but if you are on the island or close to it, it was the highlight of our visit. Proper cream tea, which seems to be quite rare in Scotland, and good cakes. Friendly staff.

Well deserved lunch and cake after the glorious walk from the pier to the Tea Garden. Very attentive friendly staff. The family who own the business couldn’t of been nicer. Highly recommended for a day trip.

Lovely little place that splits a 3-4 hour loop of the south of the island. Nice generous bowl of hearty soup and a really nice pot of coffee.

Accueil chaleureux, boissons et gâteaux d'un bon rapport qualité prix, petite maison blanche joliment fleurie : tout ceci fait que cette halte sur le chemin du sud de l'île est une divine surprise.

We were very lucky with the weather on our day in Kerrara and had a wonderful walk. The sun shone and the cafe/tea room is really cute and welcoming in a lovely setting. We enjoyed our soups and tea. Our question mark lies around when we came to pay. The bill came to £15 plus, my partner gave a £20 note and was asked by the friendly blue haired waitress if he wanted the change. Now we nearly always tip as indeed we did here leaving £2 which I think is fair. But to expect in the region of 25% to 30% seems over the top. It is a bunkhouse as well and I think it would make an enticing place to stay for a few days especially at the end of the day when most people have disappeared. The views from the top of Kerrara are worth seeing and the walk around the castle not to be missed

The tea garden is situated ideally just when you are wanting a stop, sit down and sustenance. We opted for the salmon pate with salad and bread - all delicious and the young men who serve you are friendly and helpful too. Well done on the encouraging tea pots dotted about before you eventually reach the tea room. I loved my day on Kerrera

This little gem is such a good place to stop while hiking on the Island. The food tends to be organic in nature but warm pleasant sunny and quirky spot.

We had a beautiful hike on Kerrera and then a delicious tea at the Tea Garden. The setting was beautiful and the food and tea was delicious.

We came across this gem after an hour walking the 7 mile circular walk around the southern part of Kerrera, the island which sits across the entrance to Oban harbour. They offer a choice of hot and cold drinks, beautiful home baking and light lunches. They cleverly advertise their presence with signs and teapots at every gate you pass on the walk, so by the time we reached them we were definitely ready for a seat and a refreshment. It looked like all the other walkers were having the same idea (it was a lovely sunny day). This definitely set us up to complete the rest of the walk.

Stopped for coffee and scones, visited Gylen Castle, then returned for soup and a cup of tea. Good food, excellent welcome and service. What a friendly place.

Visited after a walk to the castle in the hottest day of the year (so far). The American waitress was very pleasant and provided a great service. I had The last scone with jam and butter and a very refreshing apple based cool drink.

En una maravillosa isla con acceso por un ferry rápido y corto.

Somos un grupo de seis personas de Barcelona, Catalunya. Llegamos a la isla de Kerrera el 18 de abril por recomendación de la oficina de turismo, sabiendo que a pesar de estar casi habitada, la isla tiene una tienda de té que sirve comida y bebidas. Después de un agradable paseo por la isla llegamos para el almuerzo. Desafortunadamente, la cocina estaba rota y no tenían platos cocinados para comer, pero la niña nos ofreció pasteles. Uno de nosotros es celíaco por lo que no puede comer pasteles. Les preguntamos si podían ofrecerle una loncha de jamón o un poco de mermelada porque él tenía su pan sin gluten. De repente, el niño salió y de muy malos modales dijo que de ninguna manera podía servirlo y que tampoco podía comer su pan sin gluten en las mesas del Jardín de Té. ¡Increíble!

Like everyone else we walked round Kerrera and then stop for lunch at the tea garden you will not have completed your day out if you miss it.

After a short walk in the rain we arrive at a junction, one path leads to Gylen castle, the other to the tea garden and bunkhouse. Pop in for a cuppa or some of the delicious soup.

An einem sehr stürmischen Tag, wir konnten nicht im Freien sitzen besuchten wir den Tee Garden. Die Besitzerin war sehr, sehr freundlich und der selbstgebackene Schokolade-Fudgekuchen schmeckte umwerfend gut.Die Einrichtung ist schottisch praktisch zusammengewürfelt und strahlt eine urige Gemütlichkeit aus. Einfach schööön.

Took a trip to Kerrera in a gap between storms. Unfortunately the heavens opened and the only thing motivating us to keep going was the quirky (and undeniably cute) teapot signs and promise of cake. Eventually we finally squelched our way to the tea garden byre where the cake gods smiled and there was thankfully enough room to deposit our soggy selfs. Rhubarb and custard cake was yummy: the tea tasted devine (probably a mixture of being wet through and the lovely tasting island water). Thought the prices were quite competitive compared to the mainland prices. Would definitely make a return visit.

Had a nice walk around the southern end of Kerrera ending up at Gylen castle, and as a reward we popped into the Tea gardens. The Byre is very eclectic in style and very homily. Tea and cake were excellent and the cake was more of a brick in size! Thre toilet was a room with a view and very quaint! lovely little sanctuary on the island.

Went for tea and cake in the Bothy stsyle tea room ,very nice with a garden area for nice days .Staff very pleasent .

Heading south from the ferry, follow the teapots to find a lot more than just a cup of tea. Don't resume your walk around the island before checking out the castle. Magical.

Un cammeo nella campagna scozzese per un pranzo leggero dopo una bella passeggiata.

Couldn’t fault the food and hospitality in this unique spot at the southern tip of Kerrera. Food is bang on and usually utilising local produce. Get there early to beat the crowds and ensure a slice of chocolate cake available. Salads and soups to be recommended. Only negative I can add is is getting so popular that gonna be hard to get a table. Still, early bird.....

The Island is worth visiting even just for a meal in this tearoom. This is the onle place we found that was serving food but the prices were really down to earth. It is really beautiful location and cakes were soooo tasty. Would recommend to anyone.

The walk from the ferry is about 2 miles, there are signs. We were welcomed with a smile, great coffee and tasty food. The castle is just a few 100 meters around the headland Wow 👍👍👍

After reading about the Tea Garden we thought we would take a walk there before visiting Gylen castle.

Lovely little cafe situation on the main walk around Kerrera island. Delicious and reasonably priced food & drink, and great signposts during the walk to keep you motivated!!! Highly recommended.

After viewing the castle, we appreciated the amenities and a light repast offered before the walk back to the southern ferry.

The tea garden has a great location for walkers on this end of the island. The tea was good after a long hike and the sandwiches were very good. Prices were reasonable.

The food was really good, especially after a few kms of walk. Prices really affordable considering it is the only restaurant on the island.

Went here today on our way back from completing the southern loop (anti clockwise from ferry) and it was the perfect stop. Delicious home made scones and the tastiest home made raspberry jam with a cup of builders tea. Perfect. Staff lovely and polite too.

Schönes Gartenlokal. Etwas abseits (Fahrt mit Fähre und kleine Wanderung erforderlich). Respekt vor den Betreibern, es ist alles mit Liebe hergerichtet (schon die Hinweisschilder am Weg sind verschiedene Teekannen).

An absolute delight to find this cheery spot just 2.5 miles from the ferry, an easy walk on a well marked scenic path - and plenty of signs as you get nearer to the tea garden. It has extensive outdoor and some bohemian-styled indoor seating. A delicious Greek salad and iced water refreshed us completely. And the "loo with a view" was an experience (good) in itself. A most unexpected but wonderul find.

Staff were very friendly and attentive, the food was lovely and in such a beautiful spot. Accessed it by bike (mountain bike required!): would recommend going round the loop anticlockwise so you have a nice easy return to the ferry afterwards!

A short ferry ride to the Isle of Kerrara took uson a wonderful walk. We took the long route to the tea garden (path to the right as you leave the ferry) which on a scorcher of a day took us about 2.5 hours. The hike was manageable for my 76 year old mum, but she is fairly fit and able to cope with hilly paths.
