More information about Beach Cottage

Property information

Yet another stunning addition to our Outer Hebridean Collection! Beach Cottage is a delight for the senses; visually magnificent, spectacularly located, luxuriously appointed but just breathe deep the fresh sea breezes for a truly detoxifying and enriching rest. Everything about this house is about light, colour and space but nowhere more so than in the main social room, which is breathtaking. Nothing prepares you for the moment you step inside this fabulous creation. If your passion is for contemporary clean lines, ultra luxurious furnishings and exquisite attention to detail, in even the smallest feature, then this is the one for you. The view to the sea is mesmerising and hard to capture in words or photographs. Comfort has also been at the forefront of the owner's mind in the creation of this special cottage.

The house throughout has, despite being for just 2, been fully provided for all you need for a really enjoyable and comfortable stay. If you have friends staying on the island elsewhere then it's no problem to ask them to dinner and you will find entertaining for four quite easy. Beach Cottage occupies a location so close to Dalbeg beach that you can just pack up the picnic hamper provided for you and head on down with rugs and dine on the shore - usually with no one else around. Nestled between the owners house, small art gallery and Loch Cottage, (another 5 star cottage owned by the same owners and let by LHH) Beach Cottage could also be the quiet retreat for Grandparents, with their family occupying Loch Cottage. If you can tear yourself away from this unique cottage, in its magnificent setting, the area has plenty to offer and there is easy access to all areas of Lewis. Harris is under an hour drive and Stornoway under half an hour. Beaches, archaeological sites and wildlife are all easily seen or visited with the 2 most famous, Callanish Stones and Carloway Broch being very close. Luxury awaits you and we know that you will not be disappointed. Please note: Beach Cottage has been created very much with the couple in mind and has not been designed to accommodate a baby or toddler. No facilities for babies have been incorporated and we regard the cottage as being unsuitable for this purpose, with an interior exclusively designed for adults.

Visitor comments

  • Visitor Book
    "It doesn’t feel like a holiday rental - it feels like coming home. We have loved every minute on the islands especially returning to Beach Cottage and sanctuary! "Lesley and Alisdair, you have created the most perfect place to stay and recharge your batteries. We have had sunny days, rainy days and today a stormy day (thanks to Callum!) and each one has been terrific. "The warmth of your hospitality has been very much appreciated and we will be counting the days until we return next June."
  • Ian Anderson
    Beautiful house in a stunning setting. Panoramic views of loch, croft and beach, especially loved the waves crashing from the Atlantic on to the sea stack which dominates Dalbeg bay. This house has everything you could ever need for a relaxing holiday and Alisdair and Lesley could not be more helpful. What a talented couple. We loved the gallery showcasing all their work and couldn't resist a couple of mementos to go with the goody bag. Super holiday.
  • Visitor comment book
    Firstly, what is clearly evident is how much both Lesley and Alisdair think of EVERYTHING to make their guests’ stay perfect! From the bread and shortbread on arrival to the scones left at our door to their amazing welcome and friendly nature. We have had the holiday of a lifetime. L&A state in the info sheet that Dalbeg is the best place on the planet and we have to agree! Watching the sheep, the view, the amazing house (that is beautifully created) but the sunset on an evening on the beach is a memory we will treasure forever. This place is our piece of heaven and we will def return. Thank you. Thank you for reminding us of the important things in life.
  • Visitor comment
    I just wanted to say that our stay in Beach Cottage was everything I had hoped it would be. What a very comfortable home Beach Cottage is and what a very beautiful setting. The owners can be very proud of what they have created. I am sure we will back to see more of the amazing Scottish isles and when we want a home from home to rest in, Beach Cottage will give us all we want – including brilliant walks just out of our front door
  • Visitor Book Comment
    We’ve had a wonderful stay in a very special place. The setting is idyllic and the cottage has everything you could possibly want or need, such a peaceful place. We will take away precious memories of our time here. Thank you. June 2018.
