About this property

The two chalets, ‘Erisort’ and ‘Orisaigh’, are located within the village of Leurbost, in the North Lochs area of the Isle of Lewis, and a 10 minute drive from the main town of Stornoway.
Built from Siberian larch timber, each chalet sleeps 4 persons.

In addition to 2 spacious bedrooms, there is a fully fitted modern kitchen, a bathroom with shower, and a separate toilet. The open-plan dining and living room area commands extensive panoramic views over sea lochs and the hills of Lewis and Harris. Patio doors open onto an extensive decking area that is ideal for barbecues and outdoor dining. Both chalets provide wheelchair access and are suitable for individuals with impaired mobility.

The chalets are fitted with modern appliances and a WIFI connection is also available.
This is a truly inspirational place for all the family to enjoy their holiday and to return home with unforgettable memories of these magical Hebridean Isles.

Each chalet has an adjacent dog kennel and separate outhouse, which provides washing and drying facilities. Separate parking is available directly outside the chalets, with sufficient space for several vehicles. A licensed local shop, and petrol station, is conveniently situated within a short drive or 15 minute walk. The shop offers an extensive range of groceries and fresh daily produce. In addition, the shop complex features a hairdressing salon and small cafeteria.

As an additional attraction, guests will be able to enjoy the benefits of a well-fitted sheiling (bothy) called ‘Airidh Nisreabhal’, which is the Gaelic name for the nearby hill and loch situated in this majestic location. It is conveniently placed en-route to the famous and mystical ‘Callanish stones’ and is just a short 3 minute drive from the chalets. The sheiling provides an excellent vantage point for bird watchers and hillwalkers, or, alternatively, a place of tranquility and relaxation for surfers, fishermen, businessmen, honeymooners and indeed anyone else who would like to enjoy the peaceful island country life.

The Chalet is fitted with an Electricity meter which can be topped up at the local shop 1.5 miles away.

Isle of Lewis

Beautiful chalet, well positioned with everything you need and a great view out onto a loch. Hosts very welcoming and helpful. Short drives to amazing places. If planning to cook, a good idea to stock up at the supermarket in Stornaway prior to making your way there. Highly recommended.

Holiday

Fabulous lodge, well provided for self catering. Views amazing. Comfy bed. Local shop 5 min drive, so bring all you need. Tesco as you come off ferry. Only down for us was decking area not gated for dog, so not as dog friendly as we would have liked ..

Stunning Loch Views in a Cozy Outer Hebrides Chalet

This place is a gem - everything you need for your adventure in the Western Isles! Primary bedroom has a wonderful large and comfortable bed. Secondary bedroom two comfy singles. Lots of space for a family or multiple travelers. Kitchen is very well stocked. We thoroughly enjoyed our time on the island, and Christine's dinner suggestions were incredibly helpful (we can recommend the Langoustine appetizer at the Boat Shed restaurant in Stornoway!). Cozy living space with nice radio, TV, local books/magazines, couch and comfy chairs to relax after a day exploring nearby archaeological sites: Calanais Standing Stones, Carloway Broch, stunning beaches like Dhail Mhor (Lewis) and Luskentyre (Harris). The Isle of Harris Distillery is a must - wonderful local warmth and culture, world class Gin and outstanding Single Malt Whisky 'The Hearach' - a historic first for the island. We can't wait to come back. Thanks to Donald, his mother Christine and the whole family for sharing this treasure with the world!

Heather Isles chalet, Leurbost

An excellent chalet in beautiful surroundings & a great base for our stay on Lewis. It was very clean and well-provisioned for a family of 4. If we ever return we will consider booking here again. Many thanks.
