About this cottage rental
This property is ideally located for a romantic break away, and benefits from a 2-person sauna and Jacuzzi bath.. In a truly unique location amid the spectacular scenery of the Island of Lewis and Harris in the Outer Hebrides, Beach Bay Cottage is nestled on the edge of the unspoilt white sands of Uig Bay, a National Scenic Area and one of the most beautiful beaches on Scotland’s Atlantic Coast.
A stunning natural stone and turf roofed single-storey detached cottage built into the hillside reflecting an ancient neolithic design with breathtaking beach views, and with access to a family friendly beach less than 110 yards from the door. In a very secluded and magical location, Beach Bay Cottage and the surrounding area is a paradise for artists, photographers and bird-watchers. There are many outdoor activities nearby, such as hill walking, surfing, kite surfing, fishing (Apr-Oct, licence required), golf, wildlife watching, boat trips (including to the World Heritage Site of St Kilda), diving, sea kayaking and cycling.
The landscape and history of the Outer Hebrides, together with the hospitality of its people, provide a wonderful escape from the pressures of modern life and offer an active or relaxing family holiday or the perfect romantic retreat.
The holiday property benefits from a 2-person sauna as well as having a Jacuzzi bath in the en-suite of the twin bedroom. There is a whisky distillery within 550 yards and the local community shop is only 3 miles away.

We took advantage of the lockdown situation and decided to take holidays in Lewis, which we wouldnt normally do, we would usually take ourselves abroad! Silly us!
It was our first proper remote, self catering holiday and we were a little dubious but this house, and it’s location, is simply stunning.
It is remote but that’s exactly what we were looking for! there is an extremely well stocked community shop 5 minutes drive away.
Due to Covid the uig sands restaurant and the abhain dearg distillery were shut, these are both extremely close to the property but we didn’t need them! The kitchen is so well equipped that it’s a pleasure to cook in. The beach in front of the property is world class and the view is constantly changing. Coming back after a cold, windy walk on the beach to the sauna and jacuzzi bath is a real treat!
We were also worried that we would be stuck for things to do while we were there but we could easily have done another week!
The whole island, as well as the isle of Harris, is absolutely beautiful. We enjoyed walks every day (even in Nov!) and got out and explored! The search for Mangersta Bothy was an adventure and well worth the effort!
I have nothing bad to say about this place, I didn’t want to leave! The views are constantly changing and we even enjoyed the stormy weather we
got towards the end of the week. What a place to experience a strong north westerly wind!
There is an abundance of wildlife right on the doorstep. We spotted golden eagles over the house, a family of deer in the front garden, lots of seals and seabirds and we even heard of a sighting of a pod of 15 sperm whales off the coast! we drove to the butt of Lewis and did the lighthouse walk in the hopes of seeing them! The house has binoculars provided so it’s easy to spend ages spotting out the window.
We simply loved our stay, can’t recommend highly enough. George was really helpful and a really nice guy to deal with. They have created something special with Beach Bay Cottage! We will be back

This is a magical beach cottage. My husband and I had the most wonderful time here. The view is stunning, ever changing, and we could have stared at it all day. The location is quiet, with a restaurant nearby (although it is not open in the winter months) and a great community shop which has everything you need. The owner of the cottage is brilliant (very welcoming and genuinely helpful). One of the best cottages we have ever staying in. Simply outstanding.
