    Going home!

    The best appointed kitchen we've come across. Everywhere was clean and tidy. Hosts were very welcoming and friendly. Gave us some local history which was very informative. They even arranged a stag at our front door one morning around 7am!! It felt like home from home.

    A beautiful cottage with everything needed and more for a comfortable holiday. Made better by the lovely owners and the yummy goodies left for us and the fresh flowers. Thank you Katie and Angus.

    Amazing place with stunning views. Very clean and hosts couldn't do more for you. Had some lovely home made scones on arrival. Great location - easy to get to anywhere on the island!

    We loved our stay at An Caladh. Katie and Angus were lovely welcoming hosts. We enjoyed all the wee extra touches, homemade scones, jam and biscuits. The view from the sun room is stunning and we were lucky to have amazing weather to enjoy the garden. The house is in a great location convenient for exploring both Lewis and Harris.

    Nothing.

    Everything, from the warm welcome and thoughtful welcome gifts for the time of year (Christmas). Warm and cosy with views across the loch to the hills beyond from conservatory. The cottage was well equipped with everything needed to make your stay perfect. We hope to return.

    Nothing to report.

    Wonderful, spacious, clean holiday home with fantastic views. We spent many an hour wildlife watching from the window and saw both golden and white-tailed eagles, along with hen harriers and otters. The location is perfect, easy access (less than 1 hours drive) to most of Harris and Lewis. Katie, Angus and their wider family were so welcoming and friendly. It was a pleasure to meet them.

    This was a fabulous house. It was well equipped and had everything you could need. It was warm and cosy and the views were amazing. It had a great location, was easy to find and centrally located to visit all of Lewis and Harris. Our hosts were very welcoming and provided lovely touches with toiletries and tasty treats. Would love to return!

    Absolutely nothing!

    Loved everything! Hosts were fantastic. Extremely, welcoming, friendly and helpful. Accommodation very comfortable with every last detail thoughtfully provided by hosts. Plenty of glassware, crockery, pots and cooking utensils (all of which were very high quality). Lovely added touches such as fresh flowers, mini cake stand with mints, a box of tissues in every room, small medical kit in bathroom, luxury toiletries and plenty of white fluffy towels. Views from the conservatory were fantastic. Could not fault this accommodation.

    Some of the beds were a little uncomfortable with dips in the mattresses.

    Hosts gave us toys for our little boy to play with. Lovely welcome gifts on arrival. Very clean. Kitchen very well equipped. Lovely sealoch and mountain views, great for spotting sea eagles. Location great for touring both Lewis and Harris.

    I had the most amazing stay at An Caladh! The cottage has everything you could need and more - Katie and Angus live next door, but the cottage itself is very private. They were the most fantastic, lovely people, even buying me a card and present as I was celebrating my birthday there! Extremely thoughtful. Its an excellent base for exploring the Island. I wouldn't hesitate to return, it's a little slice of paradise!

    What did we like, well to be honest, everything. Great house with everything needed to make a home from home stay. Lovely, friendly owners and so helpful. Cannot wait to return. Beautifully situated with stunning views, In fact I could easily have spent all day just taking in the glorious, ever changing scenery.
