About this property

Mangersta 3.1 miles. Tucked away in the rural setting of Mangersta near Uig, Isle of Lewis, is this delightful one-bedroom cottage, Hona. Enjoying a peaceful and elevated position with sea views, and a bright and airy interior, Hona, a former mission hall, is the ideal dog-friendly dwelling for a couple and their canine companion. Be greeted by a charming front decked area with picnic bench, perfect for indulging in a spot of alfresco dining. Step into the open-plan living space, where you will find an inviting sitting area with plush sofas and TV, and a well-equipped kitchen where you can impress your other half with tasty dishes ready to savour at the dining table for two. Continue through to the sumptuous double bedroom, complete with its own ensuite shower room, so you can freshen up in style after a day of adventure. Head straight for the beautiful beaches of Mangersta and Carnish, where you will find excellent fishing and watersports opportunities, as well as golden sands for relaxing on with your favourite book. Head to Uig for your local amenities, where you can dine and sample the local ales at Uig Sands and the Uig Community Centre, stock up on essentials at the community shop, or enjoy leisurely strolls around the stunning Uig Bay. For fascinating sites, continue onto Great Bernera, where you will find the Callanish 8 – Stone Circle, Bosta Iron Age House, Bosta Beach and Bernera Museum. Next stop is Stornoway, home to the Museum & Tasglann nan Eilean, Raon Goilf Golf Course, the Hebridean Way, and a ferry service over to Ullapool. There is so much to see and do with a stay at Hona. The islands can be reached by flights from Edinburgh, Glasgow or Inverness; or by ferry from Uig on Skye to Tarbert, or Ullapool to Stornoway. EPC Rating: Band B

Named after the Norse word for "bay," Uig is a small settlement on the western shore of the Isle of Lewis. It is well-known for its beautiful sand dunes and breathtaking vistas of the Atlantic Ocean. Attractions include the beautiful beaches of Valtos Peninsula and Mealista Beach, as well as refreshing walks along Berie and Ardroil sands, which are both rich in history (archaeologists have discovered ancient hut circles here, and the famous Lewis Chessmen were found here), and more contemporary activities, such as kiteboarding and windsurfing. The spectacular Uig Sands restaurant and the Loch Croistean Café, housed in a renovated schoolhouse, are both available to visitors during the appropriate seasons. Abhainn Dearg is also home to a distillery. In the Uig Community Shop, you can get all the basics. Visitors can go on a boat at Miavaig Pier, located just outside the settlement, to explore the surrounding islands.
