  Such a lovely cosy, comfortable cabin, very cleverly designed and beautifully built There is a well equipped kitchen, all you need for a week stay and a smart bathroom, great shower and secret sauna We had the best nights' sleep on the cosy mezzanine, even through a Hebridean storm, thanks to the incredible insulation And the main feature is of course the fabulous looking onto the ever changing view, great for spotting wildlife, seeing the stars and Milky Way and watching the Northern Lights put on an epic display Thank you to Mhairi and Steven for creating this amazing space for visitors to North Uist and for their great hosting

• "Fabulous property."

  Very comfortable for 2 and a dog with plenty of space for a large dog crate. Sauna was an added treat. Kitchen was easily usable with hot plate and combi microwave oven which suited us well. Very comfortable bed and amazing views to wake up to each morning. Wi-Fi enabled us to use internet, play music and watch movies as desired. Excellent location, just 20min drive from Lochmaddy and we explored from Vatersay to Berneray with ease in our week long stay. Owners were super helpful when looking for help booking a day trip down to Barra when the ferry didn’t seem bookable. Those instagram photos aren’t lying, it’s a genuinely beautiful part of Scotland to visit and unbelievably quiet on all of the stunning beaches. We saw more owls (8) in one week than I have done my whole life in their natural environment, dolphins on our ferry trip over from Uig, Skye, a white tailed eagle and a stunning large deer right by the roadside. No luck for us with otters but we certainly found a lot of evidence of them. I’m sure others would have more luck. Bring your binoculars and look out for the May-Sept RSPB walks e.g. Wednesdays otter walks from Langass Lodge, Thursdays Eagle walk, Mondays….. we didn’t find out about these until it was too late, so do research these ahead of your trip if you can. Don’t hesitate to book the North Light Studio, we’ve already been recommending it so much people are fed up hearing about it!

• "The house was just perfekt for our time in North Uist!"

  The wooden smell, the furniture, the bed one floor up under the rooftop, all was fantastic. Although the house was just next to the owners place, after 5 mins you don't notice this any more as you can just enjoy the view of the spectecular Scottish landscape. Our favorite has been the oven to make fire in the evenings. Mhairi, the host, was absolutely great, with all the nice things available for us (gin, tonic, jam, coffee). One special positive note: Having the soap from "Essence of Harris" in the bathroom was a great recommendation. We later went to Tarbert to buy it for use at home! Thank you for all.

• "The studio was beautiful, as were the surroundings."

  Everything was very clean and comfortable, we slept really well. The kitchen area was well equipped, and there was a good hot water supply. It all felt very homely and welcoming. It was possible to put the blinds down at night but we kept them open to make the most of the midsummer daylight coming through the big windows. We would definitely like to stay there again. We have 2 minor suggestions: a cupboard or even a big wooden box to put our clothes in and hide our luggage away. Also, a temporary clothes line that could be put up outside to get your things dry if you’ve been swimming.
