Comfortable stay in spectacular surroundings

We would thoroughly recommend a holiday in Loch View. Sally was extremely helpful throughout the booking process and continued to look after us throughout the stay. The location of the luxurious cottage was perfect for anyone wanting to experience Bernera and the Isle of Lewis. It was relatively easy to access all the delights and attractions of the local area from here. The property itself was extremely comfortable and had everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing break in spectacular surroundings. We particularly enjoyed the tranquillity of the area, the landscape and the opportunity to see some of the wildlife here. One week was just not enough to see everything and we would love to return soon.

What an amazing place!

What an amazing place! The house is simply stunning with beautiful views overlooking the loch at the front. It was a privilege to see both golden and white tailed eagles fly by. Only a short stroll to Bosta beach with white sands and turquoise waters yet surrounded by centuries of history hidden beneath the sands. We would highly recommend Loch View and cannot thank Sally & Richard enough for their attention to detail, the welcome pack and their care to ensure we had a perfect break. Thank you for a truly wonderful week on the Isle of Lewis.

The most stunning holiday home on Lewis!

We have just returned from the most amazing week at Loch View, Bernera. It is definitely the most luxurious, immaculate and well equipped holiday house we have ever stayed in and in such a stunning location - you just can't keep your eyes from the amazing view! My children loved bosta beach which is a 10 minute cycle from the house and is beautiful. We visited Harris and spent most days in wetsuits at the beach, it was heaven and such a beautiful island. Thank you Sally for allowing us to stay at your cherished holiday home, it is so beautiful and we had the best holiday!

Stunning Loch side house in a tranquil location.

If you are looking for a beautiful house, on an amazing island with peace and quiet around you, then this is the house for you.
The photos on the website are great, and make you excited for going, but they aren’t as good as the real thing. Driving up to the house was stunning a it is in a really beautiful Loch side location.
The house itself has literally everything you could think of that you may need, and much more. Really nice touch to have good binoculars as there is definitely plenty to see!
Overall we had an amazing week just relaxing in a lovely house. Also, the communication with the owner was the best I’ve ever had with any questions answered very quickly.

Living the dream at Loch View

Loch View is the kind of house you drive by and say ooh, I wish I lived there. Well we lived the dream, even if it was just for a week! Fantastic house and by far the best equipped we’ve ever rented. Beautiful location over looking the loch with Bosta beach only a 10/15 minute walk away. The welcome pack was a real treat with home made cake, Cava and lots of other goodies. Sally the owner was very helpful and very quick to respond to my questions. Golden Eagles flying over the house every day were the icing on the cake.

Loch View Bernera is an excellent house…

Loch View Bernera is an excellent house on a very remote location very near to Bosta Beach. A Carribean like beach with beautiful sunsets. Be aware of any midges.

The house is very comfortable and the kitchen is very complete so you can easily prepare scallops and langoustines.

Really a home from home!

Excellent stay at this lovely house…

Excellent stay at this lovely house travelling with 3 teenagers. Setting is beautiful, the house extremely well equipped, beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. All furnishings clearly brand new. Perfect for a family holiday with an amazing beach 10 minute walk away.

Perfect accomodation / location

Perfect location, fantastic accomodation, great welcome pack after a long drive, plenty of space in the house and brilliantly stocked kitchen!
Excellent views across the loch and an golden eagle nest behind the house! We actually were able to watch the young golden eagle leaving the nest and preparing for following the adults for several days, absolutely priceless!
Only 15 min walk to Bosta beach, perfect for sun bathing, swimming and snorkling!
I would highly recommend a stay at Loch View!

Loch View is a superb holiday home in…

Loch View is a superb holiday home in a wonderful location. The house is well designed, comfortably and stylishly furnished and exceptionally well equipped. The scenery is astonishing and the quality of light is such that the views change by the hour; one of our party is a keen photographer and was enchanted by the images he was able to record. While we were there we were privileged to see eagles every day, both near the house and in a variety of other places on Lewis.
We have stayed at the house on several occasions at different times of year and would certainly go back, as well as having recommended it to our friends.

A wonderful week at Loch View

We enjoyed a wonderful week at Loch View during the second half of May, 2019. We found the place easily due to clear directions. The place was spotless, comfortable, and a cook's delight. A welcome package that included delicious home baking set the stage for a peak holiday experience. The kitchen had all the cooking equipment (including an awesome induction cook top) and dinnerware needed to make multi-course meals; the full-size refrigerator and full-size freezer along with ample cabinet space easily stored our week's groceries. There were spices and pantry items. The floor-to-ceiling windows that overlooked the loch provided a kinetic art gallery of views from dawn to dusk. The bed we used first was so comfortable that we did not try another, and the shower was excellent. The open living space, excellent TV and large dining table provided a spaciousness we enjoyed. The short walk to Bosta Beach was pleasant; but the short drive to the Callanish Stones and Dun Carloway Broch was one of the main reasons we chose Loch View, and we were not disappointed. Our walks at Reef Beach and Uig Beach were icing on our holiday cake. Communication with the owners was excellent, and they refunded our breakage deposit just a day or two after we left. We would definitely return if we get a chance to visit this area again.

Spectacular holiday!

What an incredible experience we had staying at Loch View this summer! We had a real mix of weather but only 2 stay inside days....and those days were easy and enjoyable thanks to the comfort, design and position of this amazing house. Every little thing has been so well thought through. As foodies and ambitious home cooks, we enjoyed one of the best equipped kitchens we’ve ever experienced in a holiday let. It was home from home! There was lots to do and we didn’t have a problem filling our fortnight (we do like to walk though. Not sure we’d have had such a good time if we weren’t a family of all weather yompers!) The boat trip and day on Little Bernera was a highlight as was Bosta, the Iron Age house, the coastal walk around the Butt of Lewis with a paddle in a Caribbean cove en route, the walk around Uig in the mist with lunch at the Scallop Shack, last night supper at Uig Sands restaurant and spotting the golden eagles in the cliffs above the house were all fantastic - as was the Lewisian warmth and generosity of spirit (and rice when we couldn’t get to a shop!). There is so much to share but this is a long review already! Sally was a wonderful and attentive host. She shared so much insight and was generous with her recommendations. All in all - a massively successful holiday. Thank you!
