Hynish House

The Isle of Lewis surrounds this compact property—a landscape defined by rugged moorland, dramatic coastlines and two nearby beaches at Braighe and Melbost. Stornoway itself is a short drive away, and from here the Outer Hebrides open up to exploration, whether by car or on foot. The flat sits on ground level with everything to hand: a combined living and sleeping area with a double bed, a kitchen equipped for proper cooking, shower room, and enough space for two people to be comfortable without feeling cramped.

Essentials like heating, electricity, bed linen and towels are included, along with Wi-Fi. The kitchen has an electric hob, microwave and fridge-freezer; the shower cubicle is heated. Out the back there is garden space and storage for bikes and kayaks, with parking for two cars at the front. No smoking throughout. The setting suits anyone drawn to the Hebridean landscape—whether that means coastal walks, water-based activities (the kayak store suggests these are genuinely possible here), exploring standing stones and local history, or simply the slower pace of island life.
