Both cottages provide comfortable, pet-friendly self-catering accommodation, making them the perfect base for exploring the natural wonders and rich cultural heritage of Lewis and Harris.
An Taigh Clach – Sleeps 4
Originally built as a traditional croft house in the early 1900s and later used as a working barn, An Taigh Clach has been beautifully renovated and extended to offer a warm and welcoming stay. The open-plan living area features a cosy multi-fuel stove, TV, and a fully equipped kitchen—perfect for relaxed family gatherings.
This charming cottage sleeps four guests in one double and one twin bedroom, both snugly set within the original thick stone walls. Outside, guests will find ample off-road parking, a fenced garden, and a utility shed ideal for storing bicycles, drying outdoor or surfing gear, and more. A raised decked area provides a peaceful spot to enjoy sweeping views of the Atlantic, memorable sunsets, and even the occasional glimpse of the northern lights.
