“Excellent Family Break in October”

Reviewed 24 Oct 2019

This house is a great find off the beaten track on Lewis. 3 generations of my family really enjoyed our get away in this beautiful spot. The house is immaculate and well set up for visitors, Isobel and Kenneth warmly welcomed us and gave us 'the lay of the land', then we sat back and enjoyed the stunning view. The house is well equipped with all you could need to cook and play (games and stories for kids). The hosts thought of our every need kindly leaving a starter pack of food and even a bottle of wine which was very much enjoyed. We hope to be back one day.

“Great Cottage in an amazing setting”

Reviewed 25 Jun 2019

Really impressed with the way Isobel and Ken were waiting for us with a starter pack of food and a bottle of wine and flowers. Ecellant cottage, very well equipped. We wanted to be a bit remote and the little hamlet overlooking the Loch was lovely. Some good walks from lots of information in the cottage. We spent hours just sitting on the bench overlooking the Lock watching the birds and boats. Excellent holiday would stay again if we are on Lewis in the future

“Absolutely perfect”

Reviewed 26 Dec 2018

Cottage is set in a remote area, which suits us as we wanted to get away from everything for a short while. You wake up to truly stunning views over the sea loch. Ken & Isobel (the owners) could not be more helpful, we arrived late in the evening and they met us off the ferry and we followed them to the cottage. They helped us settle in and had even left a starter pack of food (bread, milk,bacon sausages & eggs) a welcome bottle of wine & tin of shortbread. The cottage itself is stunning, lots of room, a large laundry room, good heating, free WiFi, it’s got the lot!! We would highly recommend Shiantview to anyone. Would certainly come again. 5 stars aren’t enough.

“Perfect quiet location with vistas to die for and everything necessary for an enjoyable stay.”

Reviewed 18 Jul 2017

The location is very quiet and the cottage enjoys excellent views out towards the Shiant Islands and then to the Isle of Skye beyond. The cottage affords good accommodation and is fitted to an excellent standard with everything which you might need to facilitate an enjoyable stay. The cottage is away from it all and there is wildlife and some great walks in the area.
