A very warm welcome to our beautiful self catering Chalet, (red & black building which sleeps up to 5. (Dogs are very welcome indeed) We are located 13 miles from the ferry port of Tarbert, on the B887.

Drive past the old whaling station and through the grounds of Amhuinnsuidhe Castle, make sure to have your camera handy as you can often see deer, eagles & other wildlife.
There are many activities right on our doorstep, Hushinish Beach & views are simply breathtaking, watch out for basking sharks, seals, dolphins and otters, take a picnic/bbq with you over to one of the beautiful coves, or just play on the white sands. Take in some of the fantastic hiking for all levels right from the Chalet door, one of the best hikes will lead you to the pristine remote beach Mheilein or why don't you climb Clisham the highest peak in the Western Isles at 799m (Corbett). Cycling is also very popular along our single track road, there is great fishing right off the rocks across from the Chalet, kayaking, (sea or loch), rock climbing, golf & remote tennis courts.

Directions
Caledonian MacBrayne (Calmac) runs ferries from Uig at the North end of Skye to Tarbert in Harris which is the closest ferry port to Creagach. There is an alternative route from Ullapool to Stornoway on Lewis. There has never been a cheaper time to travel to the Western Isles by ferry as fares were recently halved and brought into line with the RET road equivalent tariff.
Upon leaving Tarbert travel direction Stornoway for approx 2 miles until you see the road sign for Hushinish B887 take this road. Note when you reach the castle gates carry on straight through.
