Valasay offers a real home from home in an area that allows you to be as active as you want or to chill out as much as you need.
This recently built, semi-detached croft house is set in one of the most beautiful locations on the Isle of Lewis overlooking the Kyles of Valasay where grey seals, dolphins and many species of sea and shore birds are regularly to be seen.

At the bottom of the drive is a 100 year old footbridge across a Marine Special Area for Conservation. This designation has been given to protect rare varieties of marine invertebrates and seaweeds. The flow of water changes with the tides and offers a unique atmosphere to the house as you lie in your bed listening to the soothing sound of the water flowing.

Whether you want to experience the Gaelic culture at the new Arts Centre, catch a trout or two for tea or just relax in front of the open fire, Valasay has something special to offer everyone.

As some of our guests have allergies, we regret we cannot accept dogs or permit smoking. Check availability on-line on our website listed under 'Bookings and Enquiries'. Credit and debit cards accepted.

Awards and Accolades
Guest Book Comments:
"The property and location were excellent with first class facilites in the property itself. Mrs Ryan was very welcoming and informative, despte us arriving late at night due to ferry problems. The property is very comfortable and well equiped for four or two persons - the only thing missing was a measuring jug in the kitchen!!" Rob from Kirkbymoorside. "This house is a self contained part of the owners' house, with a separate entrance. It was recently built, and has been decorated and furnished to the highest standard. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and contain everything you are likely to need on a self catering holiday. We were impressed to find reference books for birds, as the wildlife in the area is fascinating and unusual for townies like us. Central heating can be used as much as necessary, and there is also an open fire with fuel supplied. The location of the cottage is spectacular, with hills and water all around - we took millions of photos, especially of the unbelievable sunsets. The owners are a fount of knowledge about the area if you want it, but will leave you alone if you appear to prefer that. They can suggest good places to visit. Lewis and Harris make a beautiful island, and a holiday in this area would suit anyone who enjoys wonderful scenery, peace and quiet. I cannot recommend it too highly." Sheila from Edinburgh. "We had a great week at Valasay. The location of the property is idyllic being very rural and close to the shore with good walking and plenty of wildlife. The accommodation is roomy, clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated and well equipped. Add to that very welcoming hosts who made us feel genuinely 'at home' and this is a lovely place to stay. We'll be going again." Ian from Oxfordshire. "Fabulous everything - house, Island, hospitality, stuff to see and do, weather - everything WOW! A real escape, already plotting our return."
