The Isle of Lewis, located in Scotland, is home to two charming chalets, ‘Erisort’ and ‘Orisaigh’, situated in the village of Leurbost in the North Lochs area. Just a short 10-minute drive from Stornoway, these chalets are constructed from Siberian larch timber and comfortably accommodate up to four guests. Each chalet features two spacious bedrooms, a modern kitchen, a bathroom with a shower, and a separate toilet. The open-plan dining and living area provides stunning panoramic views of the surrounding sea lochs and the hills of Lewis and Harris, with patio doors leading to an expansive decking area perfect for barbecues and outdoor dining.
Both chalets are designed with accessibility in mind, offering wheelchair access to cater to individuals with impaired mobility. Equipped with modern appliances and Wi-Fi, these accommodations ensure a comfortable stay for families and guests. Each chalet also includes an adjacent dog kennel and a separate outhouse with washing and drying facilities, making it a pet-friendly option. Parking is conveniently available right outside the chalets, accommodating multiple vehicles, while a licensed local shop and petrol station are just a short drive or a 15-minute walk away, providing groceries and fresh produce.
In addition to the chalets, guests can take advantage of a well-fitted sheiling (bothy) named ‘Airidh Nisreabhal’, which translates to the Gaelic name for the nearby hill and loch. This sheiling is conveniently located en route to the mystical Callanish stones and only a three-minute drive from the chalets. It serves as an excellent vantage point for bird watchers and hillwalkers, as well as a peaceful retreat for surfers, fishermen, business travelers, honeymooners, and anyone seeking to embrace the serene island lifestyle.
Guests at the chalets can enjoy the natural beauty of the Isle of Lewis, with nearby attractions including Tràigh Mhealaboist and Mol Bheag, which reflect the area's stunning landscapes. Local attractions also include The Good Food Boutique and The Harris Tweed Company Grosebay. Visitors can engage in various activities such as game walks and birdwatching, making their stay not only relaxing but also filled with opportunities to explore the rich natural environment and cultural heritage of the Hebridean Isles.
