Otter Bunkhouse is ideally situated, directly on the shores of West Loch Roag, in the village of Carishader. It provides a comfortable and cosy retreat for walkers, cyclists, climbers, and anyone wishing to explore the stunning scenery and wildlife of the Isle of Lewis. As well as two resident otters, who can be spotted directly from the bunkhouse, there is an abundance of wildlife to be seen on West Loch Roag, including seals, gannets, red throated divers, terns, golden eagles, sea eagles, and the occasional dolphin. New for 2020, we now have four sit-on top kayaks for hire, two doubles and two singles. Prices are £25 a day for double kayaks, and £20 per day for single kayaks. There is an outside decking area, with stunning views over West Loch Roag. There is also private, direct access to West Loch Roag for kayakers. Bedding is included in the price, and towels can be provided on request. Ample car parking space is available on site.

Cosy
This bunkhouse was very well equipped, clean and comfortable. You do however have to be able to cope being in very close proximity to your lodging buddies (both male and female) as there is very little privacy. Fortunately the weather was excellent while we were there which meant getting away from it was not a problem. I'm sure this kind of arrangement will not suit everybody but as a stop over for a night it served it's purpose very well. It could do with having another toilet and shower, especially if the place is full. The location is stunning and very peaceful outside, inside will very much depend on your luck in who is there with you.
