A holiday in Lewis and Harris

About the host
Hosted by JOHN GIBSON
I was born in 1958, have a degree in civil engineering and another in computing. There was no work in Northern Ireland in Civil Engineering in the 80's so I started two IT companies and sold them after 30 years. I bought Druim Mor eventually turned it in to a holiday home. It's been great fun. Much less stressful than the IT business and the people are much less aggressive.
Why they chose this property
People as me why did I buy this property, 400 miles from home. I just tell them to look out the front windows and they see exactly why! Then there is the space inside.
The front of the house is actually the back. We are from Ireland, so the back is the front! Anyway, the front overlooks the sea, the entrance to the harbour, the airport, the town, the mainland, the Isle of Harris and everything in between.
If there was a plan, it was to rent Druim Mor to holiday makers, but we never got around to that until recently.

What makes this property unique
This house has space. That's what one of the big pulls was to me. We have had family groups with the young people downstairs and the older upstairs. We have equipped the two large upstairs bedrooms each with sofas for relaxing. We have put TVs in every room.
The location speaks for itself. You're now on Point, a peninsula that would be an island if it wasn't for a very thin slither of rock that connects Point to the remainder of the Isle of Lewis. That thin slither is known as “The Braighe” (rhymes with “fry”). During winter, the sea powers vertically up The Braighe seawall and produces spectacular effects of towering water fountains. Both sides of The Braighe are worthy of exploration for beaches and the old St Columbus Church (Eaglais na h-Aoidhe) and monument.
We want you to enjoy the views, but we want you to explore the surrounding area too. There are some inland lochs (lakes?) nearby, some beaches and cliffs. Please be careful near the cliffs.
Small bus stop, cafe, shop, walks, beaches and a few sites all nearby, yet still feeling rural. Town is less than 10 minutes away.
