Sealladh Lingeigh is a very spacious bright and comfortable detached holiday home located in the crofting community of East Kilbride on the way to Eriskay, and boasting panoramic views over the Sound of Barra and the Sound of Eriskay. This peaceful and tranquil location offers a truly ‘get away from it all’ experience, whether you go out exploring or just enjoy the comfort of Sealladh Lingeigh. The birdlife and wildlife are wonderful, with eagles, corncrakes, whales and basking sharks, which all visit in the summer. The Machair is a mass of colour with all the different wild flowers, flora and fauna, and there is brilliant walking on the white sandy beaches.
An ideal base for exploring the islands, Eriskay is a short drive away, where you will be amazed at the turquoise waters, sandy beaches, and where the Eriskay ponies wander freely. Here you will also find the famous Politician Inn. The SS Politician sank in February 1941 in the waters between Eriskay and South Uist, and this shipwreck was the basis for the classic film ‘Whisky Galore’. Guests can take a day trip from Eriskay to Barra, and other boat trips run from Lochboisdale out to Mingualay, Monarch Isles and St Kilda. There is so much history steeped in these islands, with Neolithic stone structures, medieval churches and many archaeological sites, and you will find that Gaelic is wildly spoken throughout the isles. So do come experience and enjoy this beautiful location. You will truly be amazed! Beach 20 yards. Shop, pub and restaurant 2 miles.

Fantastic location at the south end of South Uist; v easy to get to Eriskay and ferry for Barra; Coop, playground and chip shop 10 mins. Little girl said ‘what an amazing house!’ When we walked in and it was - better than the photos - lots of reception rooms and large bedrooms. She liked the garden and tennis equipment too. Kitchen equipped with nearly everything you need for a v comfortable week and thank you for the scones/milk/marmalade which were devoured. Cafe and beach for swimming at East Kilbride, and we also liked walking to the pier at Lundaig and watching the fish, crab and lobster pots! Hen harrier and short eared owl nearby and good walks for dog. Thank you for a fab week - would come back if we ever get the chance.
