    This is a beautiful and well equipped place to stay on Lewis. Good location for the north and west side walks and beaches. No wifi but fair 4G signal to check weather and plan tomorrows walks (not work emails). A fantastic view to wake up to through the windows.

    There were a few small suggestions we made regarding kitchen equipment and lighter weight duvets as we did all get rather hot. If these suggestions are acted on I think the place would be perfect, other than the lack of wifi.

    Beautifully appointed and situated with great views out over the loch. Beds (mattresses) were very comfortable and the bathroom was very luxurious.

    It's a bright and airy property which is great, but if you're someone who needs complete darkness to sleep, you might want to consider bringing a sleep mask

    This is an extraordinary property with wonderful bright views over the loch. It's convenient for a number of interesting sites in Lewis. Callanish stones are a few minutes away. The road is very quiet with just the very occasional car. We had everything we needed for a comfortable holiday. The owner left us smoked salmon, cheese, prosecco and fresh flowers which was a lovely touch.

    Great location near the Callanish stones, Black Smokehouse village and within reasonable driving times of some of the best cliff scenery of Lewis and Harris. The property itself is wonderfully designed with huge picture windows overlooking a loch and very cosy with an automatic wood pellet burner.

    Loved it all

    Amazing house in an amazing location. The house was absolutely spotless and in a great location for exploring. Would definitely return. Only one thing which is an observation and not a negative for me anyway was that there’s no wifi. And I get that some people want to be remote and escape on a break but with a small child it’s sometimes beneficial. I was able to purchase an O2 SIM card and we all got internet access that way. Not a negative at all, just an observation 😉

    Lack of Internet in today's world is my only slight gripe. Get Internet installed at £40 a month and folk would be more than happy to pay an extra £10 per weeks stay.

    Everything about The Hatchery was just lovely. The location is great, out of the way but what isn't if you're not in Stornoway.

    The unit was gorgeous. However, it was extremely hot and no fan was provided. we had to go out and buy our own. biting bugs out outside everywhere and we had to run to our car so we didn't get swarmed; we felt trapped between the Heat and the bugs as there were no screens on the windows . very few supplies provided and the closest grocery store was 30 minutes away. Again a beautiful facility but too many cons to justify the price period

    Gorgeous and many amenities provided period
