    What our customers say about their holidays

    • MF - Verified booking

      This is a beautiful property in a stunning location very central to explore the Islands and for provisions.

      The property has a beautifully kept and secure garden which was perfect with a dog. I loved the sense of history and was lucky enough to meet the housekeeper who had lived on the croft as a child so she added to the information already in the cottage about its history which I found really interesting. The cottage was lovely and warm and as the weather was on one day pretty extreme that was a godsend. The Kitchen could be better equipped and there were some minor maintenance issues which I reported both to you and the housekeeper which hopefully will be addressed for future guests. In particular I would have liked to have had a couple more ovenproof dishes and at least one non stick pan. I find most holiday cottages do not provide the latter but I would find it useful as I do like to cook for myself and I ate out more than I planned because the kitchen was a bit basic. The information pack on the cottage and on activities in the area was very good. The only thing that wasn't clear was whether guests had access to the washing machine which was in the shed and as such I didn't use it. If it is part of the facilities would have been good to know. Aside from these issues I had a lovely time in the cottage and it was a comfortable and cosy place to return to after a day walking in rather unfriendly weather. I am sure had I been there earlier in the summer when the weather had been so settled I would probably have thought I was in heaven and not ventured beyond the glorious beach.

      Beachcombers is located in an open and quiet position not far from the Eriskay causeway.

      I saw and photographed Red deer and Eriskay ponies from the comfort of the living room. It is within walking distance of the Kilbride Cafe and Polochar Pub/restaurant on South Uist (2-3 miles) and the Am Polotician pub/restaurant on Eriskay (a couple of miles). There is a shop on Eriskay near the pub for provisions and a suitably sized Co-op about 6 miles or so away. We were lucky as the weather was sunny all the time we were there (the locals state that is not always the case). The Eriskay to Barra ferry is 5 mins drive away, and Lochboisdale and its ferry port about 10 miles away. All in all the location and view from Beachcombers was perfect for us and the property suitably sized should the weather have let us down. There are lots and lots of virtually deserted white sandy beaches on South Uist and Eriskay. The roads are in good condition (compared to ours at home) and are mostly single lane with passing points, the locals seem to adapt their speed so you pass each other whilst still travelling. Generally the roads are quiet as the islands are bigger than you think, with small populations that are on South Uist very spread out. The neighbours said the boat trip to see the bird life was amazing. We had great expectations of Beachcombers and we were not disappointed.

    • Stephanie - Verified booking

      Fantastic cottage with amazing views over to Eriskay and the adjacent islands.

      We loved just sitting in the lounge looking out of the picture windows at the views that were constantly changing with the different lighting and saw short eared owls and golden eagles flying nearby as well as being visited by the local wild white horses. We stayed as two couples and all agreed that both the cottage and the views were the best we’d ever stayed in. The cottage is well laid out, very comfortable and well equipped and is just as good if not better than the photos on the website. Easy access to the Politician pub over In Eriskay, along with the well stocked local shop there and the nearby co-op in Daliburgh. Breakfasts at the Kilbride cafe were also great and lots of lovely walks and beaches close by made for an excellent holiday.

    • Chloe Boulton - Verified booking

      Absolutely stunning cottage in a beautiful location!

      The house was so clean, spacious and comfortable, and well equipped with everything we needed. Comfy bed, nice big bath, hot powerful shower, luxury furnishings and high end appliances. We spent a lot of time just sitting in the two comfy chairs enjoying the views from the huge glass windows! Nice to be able to walk straight from the door down to the beach and up on to the cliff tops. A good base to explore Lewis and Harris, but most importantly to come back and relax in. Lesley and Alisdair were welcoming and helpful, and thank you for the delicious homemade shortbread and loaf of bread still warm when we arrived! We had a lovely week on the islands and this cottage was the loveliest place to relax and enjoy our honeymoon!

    • Markus - Verified booking

      We have stayed in many different cottages during our holidays, but the Beach Cottage really is the best!

      Every day we were blown away by the wonderful view through the flowers to the sea, the hills and the loch covered with lily pads. Of course we were also happy to be entertained by the hustle and bustle of the sheep. The cottage is very well equipped and the rooms are very spacious and beautifully decorated (also with the owners' pictures) in keeping with the surroundings and their mood. It is a very good base for exploring Lewis and Harris. But after every trip, we looked forward to "our" home away from home! The owners are very helpful and hospitable. We were really spoiled there during our two week stay! We will come back for sure! Many many thanks! Susanne & Markus
