About this property

Welcoming two guests, ideal for a couple or even friends sharing and boasting pet-friendly accommodation, close proximity to a beach and stunning views of the rolling landscape, Struthan provides the ultimate rural escape in Scotland. Cross the threshold into your new home-from-home and kick back in the sitting area, ready to delight in some light entertainment on the TV; allow your other half to rustle up a tasty dish with use of a suitable range of appliances before settling down at the intimate dining table and toasting to a wonderful getaway over a bottle of fizz. If you prefer to dine alfresco, move to your very own private outdoor space to saviour a feast amongst your lovely surroundings as the sun sets in the distance. Wash away the day in a spacious bathroom before completing your routine and climbing into a sumptuous double bed, ready to catch your rest ahead of another day of activities. Begin your Scottish adventure at Reef or Cliff Beach, ideal for enjoying a scenic stroll along the coastline or sunbathing along the sandy shores during warmer months; be sure to soak in the stunning vistas that can be enjoyed from hills above and stretch as far as the eye can see. If you prefer to immerse yourself in the local history or folklore, venture to Uig Museum or Dun Borranish, which was believed to be the former home of a giant called Cuithach. Travel by car to Callanish where you’ll find Calainais Standing Stones, Callanish Stone Circle II and Callanish Alpacas where you can spend the afternoon getting up close and personal with a variety of furry residents; delight in a picnic as you admire the beautiful scenery or treat your loved one to some hearty fare in the Callanish Visitor Centre Restaurant. However you choose to fill your days in Isle of Lewis, choose Struthan to make it extra special.

The most northwestern community in the European Union is located in a region known as Ness (Port a Nis), which is made up of a number of small villages and is located on the northernmost point of the Isle of Lewis. Visitors to this isolated and serene island will want to check out the gorgeous beaches and admire the area's pristine beauty. The island is an excellent area to see wildlife, including, to name a few, otters, seals, deer, whales, and dolphins. The Guga hunting practises of the men of Ness are legendary. This custom is still practised today, and it entails capturing young gannet chicks for their meat, which is regarded as a wonderful delicacy. Even though English is commonly spoken, the people still speak Gaelic, and for the majority of residents of this region, English is a second language. Fishing was a major industry in Ness, and the town boasts a charming harbour. From here, a little road will take you even farther north to the renowned Butt of Lewis Lighthouse. Around 65 miles south of Ness, the Isles of Lewis and Harris are connected, and the entire region is a wonderful spot to explore and take in the distinctive ambiance of the enchanted Outer Hebrides.
