A very warm welcome to our beautiful self catering Chalet (red & black building, sleeps 5) at Hushinish beach on the incredible Isle of Harris.
We are located 15 miles from the ferry port of Tarbert on the B887, it's an interesting drive to the West coast with many stunning mountain viewpoints looking out to the Atlantic Ocean, drive past the old whaling station and through the grounds of Amhuinnsuidhe Castle, make sure to have your camera ready for the fabulous views, watch for deer, eagles and laugh at the sheep as they lazily get out of your way.
There are many activities right on our doorstep Hushinish Beach is simply breathtaking, watch for basking sharks, seals, dolphins or otters, take a picnic/bbq with you or just play in the white sands, take in some of the fantastic hiking for all levels right from the door which will lead you to pristine remote beaches or climb Clisham the highest peak in the Western Isles at 799m (Corbett), cycling is very popular along our single track road, there is fishing right off the rocks across from the Chalet, kayaking sea or loch, rock climbing, golf & remote tennis courts.
Tarbert provides a wonderful pool, spa, sauna and fitness suit, two friendly hotel bars, the village also has three shops, filling stations, library, tea room, and of course the famous Harris Tweed factory shop.
We are a fantastic base from where you can take many day trips like the 50 mile circular drive of the Island which includes Rodel Church or drive North to the breathtaking Callanish Standing Stones. On your return enjoy an evening stroll and watch one of the amazing sunsets or relax and sit on the rocks with a wee dram of whisky and the Ocean at your feet.
