Well equipped Kitchen including washing machine, microwave, fridge, freezer. The comfortable lounge has a large TV and DVD player, Sky TV is also available and would suggest you use your own card for your required package. There is also a large TV in the dining-room.
Oil central heating in all rooms and electricity is included in the price.
Bed linen and towels also included. Plenty off road parking.
The property is less than 100 meters from the mile long sandy beach, Traigh Sgurribhal, which extends to several more beaches then onward to the famous “Traigh Mhor” beach runways that provide the daily air service from Glasgow.
To the west of the cottage are Atlantic cliff side walks where the nesting sea birds can be viewed and on rare occasions the archipelago of St Kilda can also be seen.
The surrounding area has an abundance of wild life where the elusive Corncrake can be regularly heard and sometimes seen as can many other rare birds, otters, seals, porpoise, basking shark & dolphin. There are also over 100 different flora & fauna which are unique to the area and the spring time brings a dramatic change to the landscape with primroses blanketing the area around the property.

Thank you Mary, Angus and Hamish…we never met Calum…
Your cottage is wonderful..beautifully furnished, cosy and very comfortable indeed…the views from the living room are stunning..such a great sense of peace and space. God’s own place, is Barra.
You were the perfect hosts and we greatly appreciated your personal kindness to us when our travel arrangements went pear shaped.
Please email or Facebook me regarding Mary Mac Neill, if you would be so kind.

What a cosy comfortable cottage with a fantastic view and only a stone’s throw from a gorgeous beach. The cottage was spotless and very tastefully decorated and furnished. The kitchen is well equipped even for me and I cook from scratch. We had a very warm welcome from Mary and Angus and even some lovely home baking waiting for us. We cant wait to come back again next year. This year was made even more memorable for us as my daughter’s partner proposed to her on the beach
