Kitchen area

We have a well-equipped kitchen, catering for the one-night guest and those who might be staying longer. There is a dual range cooker, electric kettle, microwave oven, toaster and fridge. Food storage cubicles are provided for individuals' food.

The kitchen: a range cooker under an extractor hood, open timber shelving stocked with pans and crockery, and a wall clock

Livingroom area

The wood panelled living room with its peat burning stove is a lovely place to relax. There are board games, maps and information on the local area. You'll have great views of the Cockle Beach and North Uist in the distance. In good weather you can sit outside and enjoy the views.

Drying room

This room adjacent to the kitchen has a utility sink, pulley drying racks, heater, spindryer and dehumidifier.

Bike shed

The bike shed has eight individual bicycle stands. There are hooks here for very wet clothes. Outside there is a tap from the water butt for washing down bikes and muddy gear.
