    Nothing it was great and everything we needed.

    From the moment of booking our host Iain couldn't be more accommodating, leading up to the visit he kept us informed of how to reach the property, entry and lots of other useful information. Inside the property it was spotless and the facilities were everything you could need. We particularly enjoyed the log burner with plenty of logs and kindling for our stay. The beds were comfortable and the underfloor heating was fantastic for some chillier mornings. THE VIEW is also incredible.

    A perfect stay in a beautiful cottage overlooking the Atlantic. The cottage was stunning inside and out, warm, clean and comfortable, and our host was amazing, providing everything from detailed driving directions to homemade scones and jam. Highly recommended :-)

    The location was ideal . You literally wake up to a beautiful view of the North Atlantic Ocean. The bed is so comfortable and the house was spotlessly clean with all the needed amenities including a washer and dryer . It’s so warm and comfortable, peaceful, with lovely fresh air. We also loved the quiet little town with a few restaurants , a few mini markets and an overwhelming amount of beautiful natural scenery to enjoy. The people here are so welcoming.

    The cottage is extremely good value for money. I would recommend to anyone on a tighter budget. The cottage is located in a peaceful part of Lewis and has everything you could need. Iain is a great host and was always available when needed.

    The very low door entry/porch into kitchen There's no sign and sadly when people came round to visit/pick us up 3 different people struck their heads on the very low door entry and it really hurt my friends head Maybe a sign to warn taller people would be helpful in the door entry/porch and/or at front door just to warn people above 5ft 3 or they could give themselves a very sore head

    Perfect cottage good location fantastic sea views with everything you could need extremely happy with our choice

    While there was nothing I didn't like, I do think a dishwasher would have been advantageous in a property such as this. it would kust mean a cycle could be put on at night, in the morning or when leaving.

    I loved the north facing location out onto the sea. It was the perfect location to see a sunrise and sunset and the summer dim. i was able to hear the concrake, a bird I had not heard for 35 years. It was just an idealic. I also had freshly baked panckes delivered to me one day by a neighbour.

    Nothing to do with the cottage at all but there is no where close to eat and drink, so take good supplies.

    The location of this cottage is amazing. Lovely little place with an amazing view. The beach close by was beautiful. A really thoughtful touch was the use of the owners binoculars.

    The only concern was the tub. It is a big step up into it, particularly if on the shorter side, and the door swings open on it if you try to hold it while stepping down. We found a high backed chair and used it for support. A grab bar would most likely resolve the concern.

    Incredible location, arrived late at night, what a treat to wake up to the beautiful view! We loved hiking and exploring the area of Port Ness. The house had everything we needed and felt so cozy, particularly with some impressive winds hitting it. It was a terrific place to spend 3 nights!

    That we only stayed for two nights. And that I didn't get more coleslaw through the CalMac check-in.

    We liked everything, to be honest. Three men, over 50, and not a gripe in sight. Clean, warm, with all the bits you need. Fire laid ready to light when we came in, tonnes of hot water for showers - I can't fault it. Iain kept in touch before and during our stay. Beds comfy, rooms cosy and wifi easily handled our three devices. You would be hard pressed to get a better place. We got to reconnect with family, see old haunts and spent a topping afternoon in the Ness Archives. (Incidentally, the coleslaw from Cross Stores is, frankly, the best I've tasted. I smuggled some back to Easter Ross on the Seaforth, and so far, no-one's rumbled me.) If we get a chance, I'll be taking Mrs Ross and our squalling offspring to 5 Adabrock - they'll love it. If not, they'll be swimming home.
