Our holiday cottages in the Isle of Harris offer complete seclusion from the outside world, allowing couples to reconnect and spend time together on winter breaks whilst taking in the stunning scenery and exploring all the island has to offer.

Climbing to the top - exciting and challenging!

Our tallest peaks, Clisham and Ceapabhal, offer not just beautiful sights, but exciting challenges to mountaineers. Often covered in snow in winter, the views from the top are astonishing. And even if you don’t wish to climb, hiking around Harris in winter shows off the landscape in a way no other season can. Whether covered in snow or peaceful and dry, as nature goes to sleep plenty of country paths, otherwise inaccessible in summer, clear up for walkers.
