    “The property was clean and ready for our arrival.”

    Everything was supplied that was needed. The location was perfect. Could have done with more cupboard space for food. Also no wardrobe or place to hang clothes in second double bedroom. I would book it again and we enjoyed the holiday. Eriskay is a beautiful Island with lots of wild flowers and beautiful beaches. The weather was overcast and cold most days but we still managed out and about.

The property

This is such a conveniently located house for families that it is sure to be a popular choice. Situated on the Isle of Eriskay within walking distance of a pub and a licensed shop literally opposite the house, yet just a few minutes drive from one of the finest beaches in the area, this will surely be popular for families and groups of friends. Newly renovated and refurbished, the house is beautifully appointed, light, airy and spacious and ideal for families or a group of friends. Eriskay is a lovely little island with easy access to South Uist and the Isle of Barra. A holiday here is like stepping back in time - but a holiday in Conan Mara is bang up to date! Why not come and get the best of both worlds? The islands can be reached by flights from Edinburgh, Glasgow or Inverness; or by ferry from Uig on Skye to Lochmaddy, or Oban to Lochboisdale.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.

About the location

ERISKAY, SOUTH UIST

Lochboisdale 12 miles

The village of Eriskay is found in the centre of the island of Eriskay which is located between South Uist and Barra. It is connected to South Uist by a causeway and is a delightful place to visit. It is known for being the site of ‘Whisky Galore!’ when in 1941 the SS Politician ran aground here carrying 28,000 cases of malt whisky. The wreck was looted by islanders who allegedly hid the whisky all over Eriskay and South Uist. With a population of around 200, it is a picturesque, hilly island. Prince’s Beach is well worth a visit while on Eriskay and is located on the west side of the island. It is thought to be where Bonnie Prince Charlie first set foot on Scottish soil and the Bonnie Prince Charlie trail is popular with visitors to the island. While you are in Eriskay you can stock up at the community shop and there is even a restaurant called Am Politican here where you can stop off and enjoy a delicious bite to eat.

Note: Though electricity is included in the rent, electric for charging cars is not included in the rental. Note: Please bear in mind that this property is located on an island and therefore only accessible by plane or ferry.
