We're always delighted to receive reviews from guests who have joined us for a stay on Lewis & Harris — here's what some recent Brighid guests had to say:

"Amazing property and location. fantastic coastal walks and sunsets. I was looking for somewhere peaceful for my wife and I to escape the rat race. We were delighted. Thank you so much. If you are considering booking, just book. You will not be disappointed."

"Brighid was even more perfect in reality than the photos show. We had such a special stay and a wonderful time exploring the local area (when we were able to tear ourselves away from the view). Everything was so well thought out and we felt at home right away."

"We had a fabulous few days. The house is beautiful and had everything we needed plus outstanding views. The sunsets were amazing. Communication with Roddy was excellent and prompt - he was particularly supportive around our ferry issues. Easily accessible from the Stornaway ferry. Highly recommended."

"We explored a different trail, site, or beach each day. We enjoyed making lattes in the morning and watching the sunset outside each evening. The sustainable intention in the design was also appreciated and I liked feeling like we could leave a lighter impact as visitors. Thanks for a memorable experience -- we will definitely recommend this place to friends!"

"We rented the house a week in July 2023. The views over the Irish sea are great. The house is new, well equipped, comfortable, has lots of space and we felt like being at home. The folder with instruction and recommendations and the digital guide were very useful."

"From the moment we walked in we overwhelmed by the stunning views whether stormy or clear including fiery orange sunsets. The house was super clean and well appointed. The kitchen was easy to cook in and we were able to buy good flour at the local shop to make bread ... The bathroom had a great shower and a bath looking over the sea. It was luxurious and warm. We would highly recommend. We would love to go back!"

"This a unique cottage in a fantastic location looking out over the ocean on the NW edge of Lewis. The accommodations are modern and comfortable. It’s very well insulated from any wind or cold and the floor to ceiling glass walls afford you 180 degree views out onto a beautiful vista - which is especially stunning come sunset. We absolutely loved our stay."

"As some other far wiser soul mentioned in the guestbook; never has it been so difficult to decide whether to go and explore or sit back and take in the majestic waves, white horses, the shifts in colours or the clear night sky. Very grateful for this experience, thank you Roddy, beautiful home in harmony with its surroundings."
