Nᴼ 21 Beautiful Cosy Modern Traditional Cottage

The cottage was impeccably maintained and clean throughout. Tastefully decorated and comfortable. The shower is amazing also.

No 21 had everything you needed for a great stay. Light and spacious for a wee cottage but definitely cozy too.

No complaints.

The cottage is absolutely beautiful, in a stunning setting, with excellent facilities, and lots of beautiful little touches. The host really has thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and cosy. Full information was provided in the cottage on how to use every appliance, as well as a wealth of information on local and island attractions and places to eat etc. Also very usefully, a lot of information on places to eat and visit locally was sent through electronically prior to our arrival to enable planning, which was great. Check in and out was smooth and contactless with a keysafe, and Donald checked on us with a message a couple of days into our stay in case we needed anything. I think this was the cleanest place I have ever stayed in. Everything is brand new. Furnishings and decor are perfect. We especially loved the sky lights, cosy throws for sitting watching TV or reading in the armchairs, and cute yard space with lights and seating to enjoy the surroundings. Sitting out with a coffee at sunrise listening to the wildlife was amazing. Thank you Donald for excellent communication throughout, and for a fantastic week in your adorable cottage!

Having to leave to come home!

This cottage is exceptional. It had everything we needed and more. The outside space was a bonus too. Everything was high end quality. It was so cosy and so comfortable. Thank you.

Nothing. It was perfect.

The cottage itself is exceptionally renovated with so much attention to detail and high quality furnishings and decor. It had everything you could need, including lovely toiletries. Many of the pictures and pottery in the cottage are made on the island. We had a good lunch at Port of Ness, a great pub tea at the Cross Inn, which is just an easy half hour walk away and has lovely staff, great Guinness and a good menu. I loved the gin tour at the Harris gin distillery. We especially liked all the beautiful beaches that are everywhere. We enjoyed Lews castle museum, which also has a lovely cafe. From there it’s a short walk into Stornoway. On the first night, there were deer behind the cottage, which are beautiful to watch. On the final night I watched the aurora borealis from the enclosed garden. On one of our drives we saw a pair of golden eagles and from the lighthouse we saw seals and many different birds. We felt the cottage was perfect in terms of location, comfort and as a beautiful base to explore.

There is genuinely nothing we could fault.

We’ve previously stayed in cottages which could be listed as good, alright and downright awful. No21. didn’t meet any of these. It was an exceptional home from home. To just walk through the door and see the property and knowing this is where you’ll be staying makes the journey far north worth every mile travelled. Donald has thought of everything to make your stay as comfortable as can be even if it is wild weather outside. Donald”s attention to detail also went beyond the property. Whether it was local information or relating to the cottage he was available at all times. We can’t thank him enough and this review doesn’t justify how great no.21 is.

everything about this home was exceptional, exceeded our expectations. we had to stay extra days due to adverse weather conditions. landlords kept checking in on us to make sure we were OK, he went above and beyond
