- "Overall it was an extraordinary, wonderful week with exploring the landscape and wildlife of the outer Hebrides. Thank you" - "We stayed at this wonderful cottage for a week with our family of four. Everything was even better than we expected, the cottage is well equiped and Middlequater is the perfect base to explore the Western Isles." - "Peace and tranquillity for us - a quiet getaway with all modern conveniences. Basic shopping is very accessible and 3 ferry ports within easy reach. In February the most beautiful beaches of white sand were empty. Walking is a real pleasure, but maybe take a flask. So many geese, oyster catchers, lapwings. Amazing."

- "We found the house easily, entered without any problem and were pleasantly surprised by the welcome gifts which had been kindly left out on the kitchen table. All facilities were available and the rooms were comfortably fitted and matched the online description. There was parking on site, and the location of the property was practical for our touring plans. We were keen to try out the fireplace one evening and after a long search found a couple of pieces of peat in one of the outside houses. (Wish we had discovered the box of fire starter in the broom area that same day!) Our stay at Sykes Cottage was everything we had hoped for."

Lochmaddy is a harbour village and was once a major herring port and well known in the 17th century as a hideout for pirates! Now the village is a main hub for the ferries from Harris, and Uig on the Isle of Skye. It’s a fabulous sail across The Minch separating the Inner and Outer Hebrides where you may be lucky enough to see dolphins and even orca whales. However, if you want to arrive by air, there is an airport on the island of Benbecula, which is connected to North Uist by a causeway. Lochmaddy has a shop, a café, a great pub and restaurants in the village hotels. All you need is within walking distance from The Boat House, that is when you’re not out and about exploring the hills, lochs, white beaches, many walking trails and the beautiful wild flowers of the machairs.

North Uist, your ‘home island’ whilst staying at The Boat House, is a fascinating place, displaying what is known as a ’drowned landscape’ covered by peat and lochans. It’s a unique and magical setting and has lovely white beaches on the west coast which are less well known than those on Harris, but equally beautiful. As with Lewis and the other Outer Hebridean islands, there are several prehistoric sites across North Uist, including the huge chambered burial cairn of Barpa Langais.

The walking and cycling is outstanding in the Western Isles and many ancient routes have been joined together to form the Hebridean Way which traverses the length of the islands. It is very well signposted and well worth following to get a taste of what the islands have to offer. The bus network works well with the trail so you can walk one way and easily get a lift back. Wherever you go on North Uist you will stand a great chance at spotting wildlife with many species not found easily elsewhere, having adapted to the unusual landscapes. You may see otters and many types of rare bird species, including the corncrake. There’s also the largest colony of grey seals in Europe just off North Uist, and, as you may see when crossing The Minch, there are marine mammals such as dolphins, basking sharks and whales cruising just off the coast, as well as white tailed sea eagles.

With its mix of salt water and freshwater lochs, North Uist is an angler’s paradise. Don’t hesitate, stay at The Boat House and have the perfect base to explore this fascinating part of the world. Beaches 7 miles. Shop 50 yards, pub and restaurants 300 yards.

Spacious 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom holiday home in Grimsay, North Uist.
Fabulous views from every window, a home from home. We are fully equipped to make sure your stay is as comfortable as you want.
I look forward to welcoming you soon.

- "We loved Taigh Mairi. Great to have a spacious property for all the family to have their own space, and the large kitchen and separate dining room was very useful. We've been to the Uists several times, but Grimsay was a lovely new part to visit. We enjoyed the quiet road around Grimsay for walks and running, and it was very convenient to just be 10 mins drive from Balivanich with its two supermarkets and fast EV charging point. The cakes/bakes honesty box at the bottom of the drive is a delightful treat!Although this property is very close to the tidal areas, sea lochs and lochens, and there isn't actually a beach within walking distance (it's hard to tell on google maps). However, there are several sandy beaches nearby - Cula beach is 14 mins drive, for example. We loved RSPB Balranald in North Uist (great to have 24hr toilets and vending machines next to the campsite there), and enjoyed the exhibitions at the Loch Maddy arts centre. Further away, the beaches at Kildonan and Kilpheder are spectacular. The cafe at the Kildonan center even has gluten free/vegan cakes, which was a bonus!(note: if you have an EV, charging in the lower part of South Uist is challenging (all the fast chargers were broken when we visited), so you need to charge at Balivanich, Loch Maddy or Kirkebost - a bit of a stretch if you are staying further away.)"

- "The Solas Pod was a wonderful place to stay. It is newly constructed and the owners have really thought about how to make the small space work. The kitchen has new appliances and quality pots and pans. The heated floor warmed the space with ease. It was snug and cosy inside even when there was a gale raging outside. There is also fast wifi and a smart TV. The bed was very comfortable although felt narrow for two people. The location is close to the wonderful Taigh Iar beach and there were corncrakes and other birds nesting in the fields in spring. Our hosts were friendly and welcoming and made us feel right at home."
