The cottage has bright and spacious accommodation which is mostly set across the ground floor. There is a country-style farmhouse kitchen which is very well-equipped with an American-style fridge/freezer, range oven for preparing delicious home-cooked meals and laundry facilities. There is also a dining area in this room. The comfortable and spacious sitting room has an impressive fireplace housing an open peat fire for those evenings indoors after a long walk out and about with a relaxing glass of wine. The three bedrooms, two doubles and a twin room are also on the ground floor along with a bathroom. On the first floor you will find a large family/dining room which has an extensive library of sporting and fishing books and board games along with a Smart TV and a leather sofa to relax in whilst either reading a good book or watching your favourite TV program, a Star Gazer telescope and Velux windows which provide fantastic views across the Balranald RSBP nature reserve and lochs with duns and ancient archaeological sites. The cottage is set within 10-acres of grounds with views of open farmland, hills and the sea while St Kilda Island is clearly visible in the distance. Situated just 3/4 of a mile from a series of sweeping horseshoe-shaped white coral sandy bays, this is a fabulous location. Tigharry natural arch and blowhole rock formation is less than two miles away from the property. With a mostly flat landscape, North Uist offers thousands of lochs with an excellent fishing loch being just 300 yards from the property, this is the perfect location for fishing enthusiasts. Asknerish (an old Tom Morris) Golf Course is open all year round and is only a 1 hour drive from the property. A few other great activities you can enjoy whilst on your holiday include St Kilda cruises, bird watching and salmon/sea trout fishing. St Kilda is the ideal choice for a rural and relaxing retreat in an untouched location.
