A beautiful croft house located in Aird, Uig in a stunning and tranquil area with views onto the Atlantic ocean.
It is a well equipped 3 Bedroom house, 1 king, 1 twin and 1 single. Whether you want a relaxed peaceful getaway or an adventure to explore the wonders of the island this is a perfect destination.
Really nice house situated in a very peaceful village on the west coast of Harris.
Very clean, spacious and comfortable house with all the things you need for a pleasant stay.

Absolutely Perfect! Excellent!
The house was amazing! - beautiful crofters cottage fully modernised and very comfortable. Rooms were spacious, well furnished , immaculately clean and with all necessary conveniences.
The patio area outside was a wonderful extra bonus with gorgeous views down the valley and the local beach.
The location was incredible. Gallan Head, just up the road, is stunningly beautiful with regular sightings of cetaceans, white tailed eagles and many other forms of wildlife amongst breathtaking scenery.
The walk to the beach is literally two minutes, a lovely storm beach cove with crystal clear waters. We paddled boarded into incredibly deep caves below Gallan head, surfed in the bay and snorkelled the reefs.
We have had a memorable holiday and everything was brilliant! Thank you!

Excellent accomodation
As a location, you cannot go much further than Aird Uig and any doubts i had about taking my family this far soon evaporated once we checked in at #5. The house had everything we needed for a comfortable stay (we are 5 with 3 grown up sons) with everything modern and tasteful. The local wildlife is remarkable - we saw eagles, seals, and a stag in Aird, and elsewhere dolphins. Aird is also a good central base for touring - Bhaltos, Uig sands. Bernera and Mangersta beach (our fave) were all wonderful. In short, if you like your hols off the beaten track you will love this !

Stunning view from property-space to recharge
Remote quiet location. Property surrounded by amazing beaches a short drive away. Ideal property to base yourself at to explore the Isle of Lewis and Harris.
Laura was so accommodating and quick to respond with our questions.
Property is well maintained and very clean.
On first day of our stay we were welcomed by the neighbours on both sides of property who were friendly and approachable.
Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Outstanding!!!
We have just returned from an amazing stay, both sons are begging to go back already.
The pictures cannot do the property justice. The location is breathtaking with views over the ocean, walks straight from the house, an amazing cafe at the end of the road and just over 2 miles from the most beautiful beach that I would say is better than the famous luskentyre in Harris.
The communication and booking process were faultless, the house was spotless on arrival and even nicer than the pictures, we were so comfortable with plenty of space for the four of us.
Thank you so much for the most wonderful stay during our Western Isles adventure ❤

5 Aird/Uig
A lovely well equipped comfortable house with a sitting out area. Lots of lovely walks and beaches to visit nearby. We had a lovely meal at the community centre up the road one evening. A pair of sea eagles flew above us as we stepped out the front door which made our day!

5 Aird Uig Self Catering
A great place on the Western side of Lewis. Comfortable with a small cove a short walk from the front of the house. Fully self contained. Friendly neighbours. Close to some great beaches and some great walks. Fresh scallops close by. Overall an excellent place for a getaway from the hustle and bustle. We had great weather for most of our stay. Detailed information from the owner on facilities and things to do. Thanks..

Good house in a remote area
This is a nicely refurbished house in a very remote area. It was clean and as described. The location is nice, though we were glad we got lucky with the weather, nothing much to do around there if the weather is bad. A few things to be aware of. Due to the remote area - the internet is limited and it isn't possible to stream or download things and the TV reception can be a bit intermittent. The toilet is also downstairs, a bit of a trek from the main bedroom, just bear in mind if you have a weak bladder and a poor sleeper or are night toilet training a child. The furnishings and beds are all good quality and the shower is good. A few final things if you haven't been to Lewis before: nothing is open on a Sunday, if you want a shopping delivered you'll need to book weeks in advance and if you want to go out for dinner you'll need to book.

Great Cottage in lovely location
A great and comfortable/well equipped cottage set in a quiet village on the west coast. There are lovely views from the terrace down to the pebble cove and no end of pristine sandy beaches nearby. A great option for a family holiday away from it all or for outdoors lovers. Recommended and I'd happily return.
