Comfortable, scenic and welcoming hosts

We had a wonderful stay at this cottage - it is very comfortable and has gorgeous views and a lovely sauna and bathtub which made for a relaxing stay! Susie was incredibly friendly and welcoming and gave us great tips on things to do locally. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Warm & welcoming host . Beautiful accommodation and location.

We had a very friendly welcoming arrival from Susie. Her directions to get to property were excellent.The cottage was bigger than it looked in the pictures. It was snug and cosy and spotlessly clean, with everything we needed for our stay. And it smelled so nice. We loved the view and the remote location. Susie is a very thoughtful host. There was some home baking when we arrived, a little vase of fresh flowers and fresh eggs! The sauna was a bonus!

Peaceful Getaway

Susie was quite friendly and a wonderful host. The weaver’s shed is quaint, peaceful, and wonderful. Susie left us homemade lemon cake when we checked in and half a dozen fresh eggs we could make for breakfast. The shed overlooks a valley with a burn leading to a sea cove and it’s just a great spot if you want some peace after a day’s activities. I highly recommend staying here!

Cosy place to stay

The Weavers Shed was very cosy. It was in a very peaceful location and the view from the window was beautiful looking down to the bay and the sea. We saw deer out of the window. The shower and bath were lovely and it was good to come home to these after being out in the wind (and sometimes rain). Susie was very helpful and gave us good information on things to see locally. We were also welcomed with home made brownies! Thank you.

Small, beautiful and completely peaceful

Very small but well-kept shed with a great wellness area that takes up almost half of the room. The shed was cosy and there was everything you need for 2 people. However, there is very little space for the own things, so we only took the essentials into the shed and left the rest in the car, which was parked a short distance away. We also had to improvise a little in the kitchen due to the lack of space and the very small fridge. Overall, however, it was a very nice stay in absolute peace and quiet and with a fantastic view of the sea. We would love to come back.

Lovely stay in this very cosy cabin!

We loved staying here - Susie was so welcoming and lovely, and the fresh flowers, eggs and cakes were a dream! Lovely cosy cabin, the giant bath and sauna were wonderful and the little kitchenette had everything we needed. Fantastic stay, we’d love to return!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
Loved the serenity. The sauna, large bath were very good. The small views from the window were charming with a bird feeder strategically placed for bird watching. The bed was comfortable. The refrigerator was miniscule (I was told prior to arrival it was"bench height") - it was knee height. Don't make the mistake I did and stock up on fresh food, there's barely any space. The cooking facilities were likewise minimalist. Less than one square foot of free benchspace. A constant and annoying juggle to cook a meal. On arrival I was anticipating meeting the welcoming and friendly, helpful host I had read about in reviews. Susie was in a rush, a long list of what shouldn't do, a reluctance to explain the workings of the cottage and a hurried departure. Thankfully her husband was far more forthcoming with local advise. I did appreciate, however, Susie giving me antihistamines as I developed an extremely uncomfortable allergic reaction to some plant or pollen on her property. I was, after 3 days spent indoors due to illhealth, able to drive around Lewis and enjoy it's beauty.

Peace and quiet in Tolsta

Ideal for a couple of nights of peace and quiet in a location which feels remote but is actually not too far from Stornoway. The property is small but has everything you need, and the sauna in the bathroom is a rather nice extra.
