Converted into a small ‘Restaurant with Rooms, it has built a reputation for fine local food, high standard accommodation and a warm welcome in line with Scottish hospitality.

The College of The Holy Spirit, attached to the Cathedral of The Isles (Island of Cumbrae, UK) is Britain’s smallest cathedral, converted to a small hotel. It offers to its guests rooms alongside alter and homemade meals, in a unique combination of modern luxury, and is also available for conferences, weddings, retreats and seminars.
