Bedroom 4: 2 x Single (3ft) Beds. Oil central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Initial fuel for multi-fuel burner included. Travel cot and highchair.. Enclosed lawned garden with gravelled sitting-out area, garden furniture and children’s play area. Private parking for 3 cars. No smoking.. This spacious, detached cottage is situated in the scattered hamlet of Leurbost, making it an ideal base for exploring the Outer Hebrides. Boasting some of the most beautiful white sandy beaches and turquoise waters in the UK, the spectacular machair runs parallel to many of the beaches on the west side of the islands. The machair is a real haven for wildlife, such as the elusive corncrake with hen harriers, seals, otters and golden eagles also regularly spotted. During the summer months whales and basking sharks visit and the Machair becomes an amazing shimmering mass of colour, peppered with an assorted variety of wildflowers including rare orchids. It is also a great place to spot dolphins.
Stornoway, the main town on the Isle of Lewis is home to Lews Castle, with fabulous grounds and woodland walks. The museum at the castle displays six of the famous 12th century Lewis Chessmen, found in the sand dunes at Uig Bay. Outdoor enthusiasts will be spoilt for choice with a variety of activities including hill walking, surfing, fishing, golf, diving, sea kayaking and cycling. Ness Heritage Centre, the well-preserved Carloway Broch and the historic Callanish Standing Stones are all worth visiting. Take a boat trip from one of the nearby ports offering a chance to spot an abundance of wildlife, or further afield discover the archipelago St. Kilda, classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Artists and photographers will not be disappointed with the dramatic landscapes, spectacular sunsets and sometimes an opportunity to see the Northern Lights. If you are looking for a stress free holiday away from everyday life the Outer Hebrides is the place for you and offers a truly unique experience. Shop 2 miles, pub and restaurant 11 miles.

Absolutely stunning, very clean and central location to explore Lewis and Harris. Owner could not have been any more friendlier and helpful while still allowing you to enjoy our holiday. This house is a must if you are heading to the Isle of Lewis or Harris.

A fantastic well kept cottage in Leurbost.
A fantastic well kept cottage in Leurbost. Takes a long way to get there (from where we live), but well worth the experience. A great place from which to explore the whole island. Local amenities in Stornaway were closed due to COVID, but this gave us plenty of time to do many family walks, wind down and switch off! Owners are friendly and welcoming with good local knowledge of what to recommend. Thank you.

Beautiful cottage, very well presented in a lovely location not far from the main north/south road, enabling easy travel to all areas of Lewis and Harris. On arrival the cottage had been thoroughly cleaned and sanitised to the highest standards with regard to COVID 19. Wonderful host who ensured our stay was a very happy one. There was plenty of room for our party of 8, including two children aged 3 and 1. The play park at the end of the drive was an added attraction!

Dalvista cottage was lovely, very comfortable and spotlessly clean which was reassuring re: Covid 19
Dalvista cottage was lovely, very comfortable and spotlessly clean which was reassuring re: Covid 19. The hosts had thought of everything and even provided a wonderful “welcome basket” for our arrival. There was also an Xbox with a few games provided which kept the kids entertained in the evenings. The location, in a quiet village, was ideal being only 15 minutes drive from Stornoway and quite central for touring around Lewis and Harris. We didn’t have the best weather for our holiday but the scenery was so spectacular that it really didn’t matter.

Fantastic cottage, great location for touring the island.
Fantastic cottage, great location for touring the island. Really clean and comfortable place to stay for larger families. Kitchen had everything you could need and the playpark at the top of the driveway was great to keep the kids occupied! Good selection of DVD's and the Xbox was a welcome blast from the past.
