This property is in the Isle of Lewis, NOT in the Isle of Harris
This is a comfortable croft house situated in a small village in a very scenic area overlooking Uig Bay/Sands on the west coast of Lewis. The house has outstanding views in all directions. The dunes where the famous Lewis Chessmen were found are nearby as is the old graveyard where the Brahan Seer supposedly found the stone that enabled him to foretell the future.
We do not accept pets due to family allergies to animal hair/ fur.
This comfortable croft house is warm with oil-fired central heating.

Uig and the Hebrides in general are the perfect place to relax and unwind. This scenic area of Lewis, on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, is an area of outstanding natural beauty with many unspoilt beaches, moorland, lochs and coastal scenery.
It is great for the hillwalker, fisherman/woman, nature-watcher, historian. The ever-changing light in the Outer Hebrides is of amazing quality for the photographer. Catch the early morning light or evening sunsets for breathtaking images.
Children-fly your kites, build sandcastles, run barefoot on sands, paddle in the incoming tide, float with body-boards,search the sea shore for crabs, swim if you wish!
Uig has its very own distillery at Abhainn Dearg which is just across the bay
