Recent Reviews in Lochboisdale

Thatched Cottage near Daliburgh, Fully kitted kitchen, Out house drying room,

10/10 Excellent

"Sehr warmer unkomplizierter Empfang durch den Vermieter, der auf dem Nachbar Grundstück wohnt. Perfekte Übernachtung für Ruhesuchende. Strand ca 1 km fussläufig entfernt"

Welcome to Airidh an Dobhrain - our secluded cottage by the lochside

10/10 Excellent

"Second time at the cottage, love it, it's so comfortable"

Smiddy Cottage

10/10 Excellent

"The property had everything necessary for a relaxing break. Little extras from the owner were a great touch. The gated garden was perfect for our dog to enjoy the garden."

Hebridean Stay

10/10 Excellent

"Nice, simple, clean room in Benbecula, South Uist. The innkeeper was very welcoming and friendly. There is a nice hotel restaurant a short walk away from the Hebridian Stay. We would stay here again the next time we visit south/north Uist."

Brae Lea Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Brae Lea is far more than one would expect. The location is a short walk to the Ferry Terminal at Lochboisdale - yet driving from the north, you feel as if you’re nestled in the foothills of a mountain (because you are). Rupert is an outstanding host, and he doubles as a 5-Star concierge. He helped us sort travel and touring arrangements as well as made breakfast and suggested dinner options. The Brae Lea accommodations are also top drawer. Clean - efficient - spacious - inviting. Full marks - on every count."

Taigh Ciorstaidh family & pet friendly self-catering Isle of Barra Scotland

8/10 Good

"Would have liked WiFi but we managed the cooker was basic but ok The view was great and the place was really nice"

Polochar Inn

8/10 Good

"Reading other reviews I was a bit worried about staying here but it was great. I had a huge room with a seaview and big modern bathroom with lovely Scottish toiletries. I thoroughly enjoyed a hot bath after a cold day out on the bike. They have a big indoor room around the back of the hotel where you can store your bike. Huge comfortable bed and the room was comfortably warm. Busy, friendly bar and restaurant and I had a lovely steak pie for dinner. Very much enjoyed my stay here."

2 bedroom accommodation in Stoneybridge, Isle of South Uist

10/10 Excellent

"Very much enjoyed our 3 generations stay at Altabrug. Have visited family in South Uist for many years but never ventured down the Stoneybridge road. Bikes hired from Lochboisdale and delivered to the door helped us explore the area during some lovely weather. The cottage had large windows throughout which allowed us to enjoy the views and the wildlife. Our wee dog enjoyed the freedom around the cottage and loch."

Pod Beag Beside the Sea, Isle of Eriskay

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely pod for solo trip. "
