    “Overall the property was excellent, facilities and equipment and quantity of equipment for 12 people was more than adequate.”

    very well designed property and to hard fault. Minor issues to help accommodate the holiday experience, it would appear that the towel rails didn’t work but difficult to find out why not. More information on the heating system in the information pack would be useful and also on the recycling. Improved lighting in the kitchen certainly for washing up would be great. Views and walking to the beach are fabulous and a four-legged friends had an absolute fabulous time thank you

The property

Clachan Lodge is both stylish and a very comfortable, purpose built holiday home. Located within an easy stroll to the endless white shell sand beaches and the turquoise sea of Clachan Sands and Traigh Lingeigh. The colourful array of wild flowers in bloom on the Machair are at their most colourful from Mid June to August. The floor to ceiling windows from the spacious lounge and dining room provide a wonderful vantage point to enjoy the uninterrupted views. Behind the house climb the nearest hill Beinn Mhor, within walking distance, to get stunning panoramic views across the sound of Harris and the fragmented landscape, containing the myriad of lochs that makes up much of the interior landscape and the rugged coastline of the west coast of North Uist. Within a short drive take a trip to Lochmaddy to visit the Museum and Arts Centre where friendly and informative staff will help with questions on the history. Take a tour around the museum to get an understanding of the history and traditions of North Uist and Island cultures. If you have time explore the Arts centre and gift shop as they have a good selection of local books and maps. The Uist Outdoor Centre offers a wide range of activities including kayaking, diving and whale watching. It is possible to drive as far south as Eriskay using the causeways that now link these islands - North Uist, Grimsay, Benbecula, South Uist and Eriskay. Also, to the north a causeway links North Uist to Berneray. Pack a picnic and stop at one of the many beaches. Always returning at the end of the day to marvel at the sunsets unfolding in the skies from the huge windows. It is also the perfect vantage point to catch a display of the northern lights when the daylight hours reduce from autumn, winter and early spring. 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 £300.

Lochmaddy has good facilities and services including a selection of hotels serving fresh local produce in their dining rooms. A visit to the award-winning museum and arts centre located in the centre of Lochmaddy is a must, and there is also a tourist office full of information about local events and places to visit. The road south of Lochmaddy will lead you to the village of Carinish some 10 miles away and if you continue on this road you can cross the causeway to the island of Benbecula.
