Beach View Cottage

A wonderful cottage perfectly located near the beach/coast with Polochar Inn on your doorstep and lots to see and do….

Very clean and well presented. We will return!

A lovely cottage in a beautiful location overlooking the sea.

A couple of initial niggles on arrival - there was no cloth for washing up, there were no dishwasher tablets, and no 'welcome' instructions on how to work the heating, wifi code etc. But once it was all sorted, we had a lovely week, and the weather was on the whole kind to us, meaning we had some spectacular walks. One other annoyance - we couldn't open the windows in the lounge as the blinds prevented it. So we had to pull the blinds down before going out in the morning to prevent the sun heating up the lounge like a greenhouse.

Beautifully situated house .

Very comfortable and welcoming. Very well equipped. Good situation for exploring Hebridean islands from North Uist down to Barra

Beach View Cottage is a lovely property based in a wonderful location.

Very easy to get to if arriving into Lochboisdale and perfect if keen to exlore Eriskay and Barra Ideal if you have children and or pets. There is an enclosed garden but also you are a stones throw from the beach. It was very clean and comfortable. I would throughly recommend.

Beachview is an excellent cottage.

It was spotlessly clean, which is very important to us, but we also felt completely at home. All utensils were usable which is not always the case and it was really well equipped. The decoration was really lovely. The views stunning and the enclosed garden was lovely for both of us and the dogs. It was an absolute joy to stay in the cottage and it is the best we have ever stayed in. Thank you for a lovely week for my special BIG birthday. The only faults were tiny ones: The shower tray in the ensuite didn't drain off and we ended up standing in inches of water. I showered in the family bathroom but found the bath so slippery to stand in when wet that I had to call my husband to help me out. I know I am 65 but I am very fit.

An excellent cottage in a beautiful situation.

Very well equipped, warm and comfortable so had a very enjoyable stay and hope to return. Only negative was a rather firm mattress in main bedroom which we found uncomfortable but realise that mattresses are very subjective. Perhaps a topper would help so people can choose the level of firmness. The dogs loved the garden which was very safe for them.

Absolutely outstanding.

The one of many highlights for me was the brightness with the large windows, fantastic. Unlike many properties we've stayed in this was absolutely jam packed with every mod con that was needed. You could easily not set foot outside the cottage if you didn't have to for the duration! The location was spot on with escapism the no 1 reason for me booking with yourselves and it didn't disappoint one bit. I was also lucky enough to meet Alistair the caretaker who I had a great chat with about the island, really interesting. Maybe for future he could be rented out to sit over a glass and tell stories, there will be many

Comfortable and cosy cottage with wonderful views.

Ideal for dog with enclosed garden . In great location next to beach and to travel around South Uist, Eriskay, Barra and Vatersay.

Great cottage in a great location!

All problems solved in time. E. g. one smoke detector was "on strike" and was exchanged immediately on a Sunday evening! A surprisingly good experience. Next time we come to South Uist we would like to stay there again!

Fab design, decor & location.

So enjoyed just watching the views. We want to move to the Hebrides & should have been up there by now if our house sale hadn't fallen through. It has confirmed that we definitely want a sea/beach view as opposed to a loch or moorland view. Only thing I would say is the toaster only does 2 slices, a 4 slice one would be better & the main bedroom mattress was a little soft but we would definitely stay again as this is the type of place that we most enjoy. Thank you. Wonderful property.

Great cottage ,well equipped and in a wonderful location.

We have visited South Uist several times but never had a view from a cottage like this, amazing. Sat outside most nights enjoying the total peace of the place. The house is very comfy, beds great and furniture as well. Would love to visit out of season to get the dark skies that can be seen . I would recommend this cottage to everyone wanting to stay on South Uist .

Property was very clean and warm and the location was excellent.

Wi-fi overall was excellent, would definitely stay at the property again plus plenty of parking together with lovely views from the sunroom.

We have enjoyed a great week in this amazing cottage.

many thanks and looking forward to returning

A lovely week.

Took the stand up paddle boards to Eriskay and Vatersay. Love this place. Thank you for letting us enjoy this fab cottage! It has everything you could possibly want.

We have had an amazing time .

The islands are lovely. Bernard, Barra, Eriskay - they are all lovely. Uist has wonderful beaches. This house is just perfect we will come back soon. Our dogs have loved the garden freedom and the beaches.

Great cottage with excellent facilities and in a lovely location.

A very relaxing week. Had a great day on Eriskay. Two excellent meals at the pub. Hope to be back soon. Thank you.

Three wonderful weeks in this perfect cottage!

All four of us loved our stay. Thank you for the care and thought that has gone into this retreat

We really enjoyed our stay at beach View Cottage.

It was comforting and cosy and easy to relax in. We enjoyed lighting the fire every night and relaxing in the living room. Overall Beach View Cottage helped us enjoy our experience for the first time in Scotland . Ps We really look forward to coming back! Thank you.

We spent a fabulous week here in May.

Cottage so comfortable, warm and well equipped . Shona the housekeeper was so kind and helpful. Sunsets out of this world

What a beautiful well kept and immaculately clean cottage with stunning views.

We so much enjoyed our week at Beach View Cottage and hope to book again in the future. It was our golden retriever Thyme's first holiday very pleased with the dog friendly garden where she could play safely. Thank You!!

A beautifully presented cottage, spotlessly clean and some lovely ornamental touches on the windowsills.

The large windows that opened like doors were fantastic, especially as it was so warm and sunny while we stayed. We could sit on the windowsills and feel like we were outside. The bedroom door of the double room didn't close properly, especially when lots of windows were open...a little tricky when staying there with teenage nephew! The dishwasher was ridiculously small, especially given the size of the kitchen and the number of spare cupboards. A larger one would have meant only needing to turn it on once a day, so saving water and detergent. The tap arms for the bathroom sinks were rather short, making it tricky to fit things like razors and toothbrushes underneath. The fridge and freezer doors could do with being rehung to open the other way. The coffee table was gorgeous, even though it blocked access to the sofas if brought close enough to use. Showers were lovely. Really useful to have large rolls of cling film and foil and lots of spare loo rolls, dishwasher tablets, etc. Having a separate washer and dryer was really useful...many self catering cottages have an all in one. Overall a lovely cottage in a fabulous location, if it wasn't for the tiny dishwasher and very short armed taps, we'd definitely stay again and recommend it to others.

This is a lovely new property in a superb location with views to Barra.

The house was immaculate and had everything that you'd need for a relaxing stay. The garden is fully enclosed, with outdoor seating. The Polochar Inn is at the end of the road and it's less than 10 mins to Eriskay. It was our first visit to the Uists and this was an ideal base.

Quiet location.

Lovely to look out over the water at the seals from the lounge. Great for swimming at high tide. Owner quick to respond to anything that wasn't in order. Very comfortable and practical property. Property had most things that we needed although we would have appreciated the following items- egg cups, ice cube tray and clothes pegs. We were impressed with the quality of fixtures and fittings although if it was my place I'd get the window replaced in the double bedroom as it hasn't been fitted correctly and the wind blows in. Super property. Thank you.

We had a lovely week at Beach View Cottage.

Wonderful location for exploring South Uist, Eriskay and catching the ferry over to Barra. The views of the machair, beach and sea from the house were amazing. The big secure garden was perfect for our dog and the house itself is such a lovely place to spend time looking out at the views. It’s very well equipped and the bed is sooooo big and comfy. Only a stones throw from the Polochar Inn for lunch and dinner too ... perfect!
