Set in a
coastal Gaelic speaking community in the Western Isles of Scotland, this
family run
Scottish Tourist Board 4 star rated
property is
superbly placed within 200 yards of the picturesque Port of Ness beach
and its adjacent 19th century fishing harbour. Situated
about 45 minutes drive from the island's
airport
and
ferry terminals in the town of
Stornoway, guests can enjoy a peaceful and relaxing
vacation, but with easy access to public services and amenities. |

A regular bus service passes by the property approximately every 1-2
hours, Monday to Saturday. There is also a local taxi
service - ideal for drivers who wish to leave their vehicles 'at home'
But then again, there are all those wonderful walks on any one of
several beautiful sandy beaches; along the stunning coastline, rolling
machair (coastal grassland) and the expansive moor that dominates the
east coast. |

| The crofting
community of Ness in the north of the Isle of Lewis boasts several
outstanding sandy beaches, stunning seascapes, great walking spaces and well
known landmarks like the Butt of Lewis lighthouse and Dun Eistean - the
ancestral home of the Clan Morrison, which is now undergoing a major
archaeological survey. |
