  • "A lovely house in a beautiful secluded location."

    Everything was spotless, everything and more was supplied for the week. A welcome box of fresh eggs, local teatowel and a bottle of wine was waiting for us. Our hosts were very concerned that the main EE mast was down and even offered to try and sort this for us by getting different sim cards. EE actually sorted mast and it was then an excellent reception. Lovely enclosed garden (very suitable for dogs) with a wilder area with Machar flowers in it. Watched a lot of wildlife from the cottage and surrounding area. Instruction books provided for all appliances which was good. Honestly cannot fault this property or its hosts. Excellent all round.

The property

Stornoway 45 miles.

Perched on the edge of a rugged headland in Breanais, near Timsgearraidh on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides, Scotland, overlooking white sandy beaches and clear blue sea, Spindrift is sure to take your breath away.

Perfect for families and their four-legged friend, this cottage offers an insight into the wilderness and remoteness of the Isle of Lewis.

Upon arrival, park in the convenient off-road space before entering this single-storey cottage, finding first the spacious sitting room, why not take a moment to recline in this contemporary space with soothing grey décor and wooden floor, along with a woodburning stove to warm your feet after a long day?

When mealtimes arrive, there will be no worries over cooking, with this cottage housing a beautifully decorated and fully fitted open-plan kitchen/diner, the perfect space for social family mealtimes served up on the central dining table and with a view to the outdoors. If you are feeling sleepy, this property offers two beautifully furnished and spacious rooms, one king-size with local artwork and a view to the outdoors, and a twin room with storage and a relaxing atmosphere, along with a family bathroom shower to soak the chill of the Hebrides away.

Outside, you will find a lawn where your four-legged friend can recline as you present a hearty breakfast in the picnic area, or only a short walk from the cottage you will find yourself crossing rugged terrain to reach a hidden gem of a beach with soft, white sand and clear blue water, where you can swim, kayak, and relax in the tranquil sunshine.

With such a remote area, it is unsurprising that the wildlife thrives, with birds including golden eagles, sea eagles, red-throated divers and golden plovers, as well as otters and red deer.

The area is renowned for its spectacular coastline, including Mangersta sea stacks, and superb sandy beaches, such as Uig Sands where the famous Lewis chessman were found.Inland hikes around the scattering of lochs and hillsides are plentiful, with Uig hills on the doorstep; including Mealaisbhal, Lewis' highest point.

There is sure to be something for everyone with a remote and exciting stay at Spindrift.

The islands can be reached by flights from Edinburgh, Glasgow or Inverness; or by ferry from Uig on Skye to Tarbert, or Ullapool to Stornoway.
