Guests have enjoyed the stunning views, the proximity to local amenities, and the thoughtful touches provided.

The cottage is frequently described as comfortable, well-furnished, and providing a relaxing experience, indicating a high level of guest comfort.
Facilities are generally praised as well-equipped and maintained, though one mention of the absence of a washer/dryer suggests a slight deduction in the score.

You don’t need to bring your car on the ferry to the island in order to stay at our property. Lochboisdale is the ferry port where you would arrive if sailing from Mallaig or Oban. It is on the island of South Uist, Outer Hebrides and can sleep six people in three bedrooms. Beinn Mhor View is a beautifully-appointed, single-storey cottage resting in a quiet cul de sac among other properties on Kenneth Drive in Lochboisdale. It makes a convenient holiday spot, especially for those
who may wish to save the expense of traveling with a car to the Western Isles. Cycle hire and car hire available in Lochboisdale.
Resting in the picturesque port town of Lochboisdale, a moments walk from the Lochboisdale ferry terminal, sits the charming, single-storey cottage of Beinn Mhor View. Surrounded by rugged beauty on the island of South Uist in the Outer Hebrides, the cottage is a homely, contemporary base with mountain views to explore the great outdoors in comfort. Two off-road parking spaces greet you at the foot of this lovely dwelling, equipped with an external charging port for those traveling with electric vehicles. Inside you'll find a stylish open plan kitchen/diner/living room, fully-equipped with a full range of pots, pans, crockery, glassware and baking equipment, for preparing home-cooked meals and picnics, with marvellous views of Beinn Mhor and a rustic wooden breakfast bar to savour your morning coffee; a collection of herbs, spices, tea, coffee and condiments are lovingly provided for your use. In the warmer months, make mealtimes an alfresco affair and gather together with a seat at the picnic benches. Retire to the sitting room after a long day trekking the island where a plush corner sofa invites you to put your feet up in front of the TV. Hang your towel on the heated towel rail in the sleek shower room and wash the day away, before retiring to one of three bedrooms; two doubles and a bunk bed are all thoughtfully decorated with bedside lamps for late night readers. Wander into the centre of Lochboisdale to dine at the Lochboisdale Hotel, or stroll along the marina and decide the day's adventure; the ferry terminal takes you to Mallaig or Oban, whilst outdoor enthusiasts can try their hand at paddle boarding, loch fishing or hike up the Uist hills; torches and binoculars can be found at Beinn Mhor View for night time exploring. Hire a bike or jump in the car to explore more of the spectacular island by road causeway, from the islands of Eriskay, Benbecula and Grimsay to attractions such as Askernish Golf Course and the Kildonan Museum. Or visit Eriskay football pitch which is recognised by FIFA as one of the eight most remarkable places to play football in the world.
Known for its white sandy beaches, South Uist offers the best of rural and coastal beauty with sparkling seas and coves tucked away from the hustle and bustle. Wildlife lovers also have plenty of opportunities to spot otters, seals and a variety of birdlife, such as short-eared owls and redshanks.

We went to Skydancer coffee shop a couple of times and to the Lochboisdale Hotel for dinner and a ceilidh both within walking distance. Many thanks for a great stay.
Sandra
The views were wonderful, it was clean, it was comfortable and well equipped. It was finished to a high standard and a joy to return to. It is true that it is in the middle of a VERY quite housing estate but this does not detract from the property and the views you get from every room.
Andrew
It was cosy, clean, well furnished and lovely to wake up to such a stunning view. It was particularly great for the kids who loved popping out to the playground next to the house, and around to the little all-weather football pitch around the corner. A great base for exploring the Uistâs - and we particularly loved Eriskay and the beaches there. Had a nice meal at Am Politician on Eriskay. Would definitely stay here again.
