Om overnatningsstedet

Velkommen til Airidh an Dobhrain - vores afsides sommerhus ved lænkekanten

Dette hyggelige sommerhus ligger lige ved vandkanten og er både fjernt og isoleret, vores eneste naboer er havfugle, sæler og lejlighedsvise udter! Det er virkelig et ideelt tilflugtssted, hvor du kan undslippe hverdagens travlhed og slappe af.
Det er ideelt placeret lige i centrum af de ydre Hebrider, så du kan udforske fra Eriskay (med regelmæssige forbindelser til Barra) mod syd, til Berneray (med regelmæssige forbindelser til Harris) mod nord.
Det blev oprindeligt bygget som et shieling for at huse jordarbejdere, og er nu et behageligt feriested med den ekstra fordel af en pejs, der brænder sammen efter en lang dag ude.
** BEMÆRK Denne hytte gennemgår en total intern renovering i løbet af vinteren 2018-19. Nye vinduer og indgangsdør, nyt egetrægulv i stue og hal, suite ompolstret i Harris Tweed, ekstra vindue i soveværelset for at gøre det dobbelt aspekt, nyt soveværelsetæppe, nyt køkken med Bosch apparater, nyt trykvarmeanlæg, nyt badeværelse. * Billeder vil blive opdateret, efterhånden som renoveringen skrider frem, men vær venlig ikke at udsætte dem af de interne fotos, det vil være en luksusspecifikation for sæsonen 2019.

Friendly and dedicated host -when we needed to adjust the heating for our needs Ian immediately remotely adjusted so we were really comfortable. The house was cosy, welcoming, clean and inviting. Also, having a wood fueled fireplace was wonderful. Highly recommended. PS: thebinder and maps were a great source for discovering the places on Benbecula, great job!

Just spent a wonderful 12 days at Airidh an Dobhrain. The accommodation is perfect small and quaint from the outside but extremely well equipped inside..full kitchen with everything you could need..comfy lounge with real fire and TV (if u should need it) comfy bedroom and modern bathroom with amazing shower.The real star of the show is outside isolated but not too remote..theres a co op and garage 2 miles away. Situated on small loch gives amazing views and plenty of wildlife, we had Eagles, hen harriers ,sparrow hawk, divers and deer amongst many others.Benbecula is an ideal base to explore the islands being pretty central. Hope to return 1 day

Everything needed for a perfect break

Airidh an Dhobrain is immaculately presented and has everything required in a holiday cottage. It is in a quiet location but with easy access to the rest of the islands. Monica, who manages the property on behalf of the owners, was extremely helpful and our stay was all-too short.

We wondered if we were mad to visit the Outer Hebrides in mid November so we only booked 3 nights at Airidh an Dobhrain. Wish we'd been brave enough to stay longer! What a delightful, cosy wee cottage and the Hebrides are magical at any time of year. The many 10/10 reviews are accurate - perfect!

We had a wonderful time in this lovely cosy cottage by the loch just watching the tides come in and out. The birds keep us entertained and the extra daylight was a joy. A very well equipped neat homely cottage with everything you could possibly wish for. Especially if you like cooking from scratch.

On arrival and on departure … I cried! Happy tears!

This cottage is pure delight. One of the best holiday accommodations I have ever stayed in. Away from all the stresses of life. The situation is perfect to heal whatever might need healing! My two dogs also loved it … the three of us were horizontally ‘chilled out’. Thank you David and family .. what you are ‘offering’ there is, well, certainly for me … perfect!

Nice cottage, nicely decorated, nice pictures, furniture, lovely floorboards, good shower, heating, multi-fuel burner. Quiet but good access to North and South Uist. Weather I as bad most days I was on Uist so it was good to be able to get back to a warm cottage, shower and woodburner. Binoculars and scope. Good hillwalking and beach walking. Didn’t see much wildlife due to weather but saw a Golden Eagle, 2 Herons, Waders, Shanks and Gulls.

Delightful Stay!

We loved renting this property! It was located right on a loch with many different species of birds to view and tides to watch. Unfortunately no otter sighting this time! The house was very cozy and clean-just right for two people. It was conveniently located to explore Berneray, North Uist, Benbecula, South Uist, and Eriskay. It was also convenient to several grocery stores, gas stations, and restaurants. We had great weather in April/May and enjoyed sitting out on the chairs watching over the loch during the day. We were able to meet Ian, the owner, and it was a delight talking with him. He was very responsive to any questions we had about the property before we arrived. We would definitely recommend this property!

The most breathtaking views from the windows

The cottage felt very welcoming when we arrived - someone put a lot of love and hard work into fitting it out. The surroundings were just breathtaking - being located right on the shore of a lock with plenty of birds flying around - and sheep in the driveway. An evening's or early morning's stroll over the rocks around the loch was a particular pleasure, and the quietness was almost tangible, broken only by the gulls screaching, the sheep bleating, and the very occasional car passing the end of the driveway 100 yards away. The remoteness also means you get a chance to talk to people - residents and other tourists - whom you would probably just walk past if you saw them at home. Overall we were very sad to leave and we hope to be back before too long.

A paradise to hide away in

This was a return visit after a magical week here last year and it fully lived up to the rose-tinted memories. To wake up to sights of sea birds in the lock outside and take a short walk over the rocks before breakfast was perfect. The garden had been tidied up from last year and the internet was working too. The nearest village, a mile and a half away, with the co-op supplied all our needs again. This time we tried one of the boat trips the island offers (Lady Ann WIldlife cruises from the other Grimsay) allowed us to see seals and stags as well as many diving birds that stay off shore. The Benbecula distillery is now open and well worth a visit. When we had to contact the owner about a minor issue he responded in 20 minutes and sent his agent to visit within a few hours. We can't wait to return again. This is a lovely cottage and Benbecula and the Uists are an enchanting spot to visit.

I’ve stayed at this beautiful cottage before. That fact alone speaks for itself. The weather was surprisingly good actually … (the forecast wasn’t). I did feel that it was a shame that the planting near the cottage was pretty imposing, (it was nothing like that when I was last there). I do understand that it’s possibly there to ‘break’ the winds etc; but the beautiful views across the sea had, pretty much been obliterated. Thank you for the bottle of ‘red’. Nigel.

We stayed in late June 2026 for one week. Ian was very responsive. The property is in a nice secluded position just a few miles from the ‘main’ road. You can get almost everywhere from Berneray to Eriskay in about 50mins or under, and so it is an ideal location for exploring the southern chain of island. The cottage had most of what we needed for our stay, but a few more basics in the kitchen would be nice. The bed was very comfortable and the shower in the bathroom is great. Overall, a super little property and we would certainly stay here again.

Beautiful and peaceful

We had a fabulous stay here, the setting is beautiful and we hardly saw anyone during our stay, just the sheep and birds. Just what we wanted. The property is cosy and well equipped, and the shower is amazing. We loved sitting by the fire and taking in the view across the water.

Om værten

Vært: Ian Swain

Værtens profilbillede
My father's family were in the building industry and as a child I learned a lot about building and DIY. I have always enjoyed DIY and undertaken many projects in my own home including building an extension. As I neared retirement from teaching, I wanted to to do more building projects. I love the traditional Hebridean style of property and bought the cottages to renovate and run as holiday let properties.
Although I don't live on the island, I spend as much time as possible there and enjoy doing projects at each of my properties.
My aim is to provide guests with a comfortable, hassle free holiday. I have many returning guests who love the cottages, the same as I do.

Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted

When my parents died I was left an inheritance. This coincided with the twilight years of my teaching career, and I had already decided I wanted to spend time in the Hebrides renovating a property on my retirement. When I saw Tigh na Boireach, I fell in love with it and bought it to continue as a holiday let cottage. After a year or so working on this cottage, I had it more or less finished and found Airidh an Dobhrain about 24 miles further south. This is a contrasting property and again has many wonderful features. I felt that its stunning remote, isolated location would make it a popular holiday let cottage once done up. I spent two winters completely renovating the cottage and added two extra windows to take advantage of the 360 degree views.

Derfor er dette overnatningssted unikt

The cottage has a completely unique feel. You are completely amongst nature. In spring, the nesting birds on the islands in the loch are wonderfully entertaining. Last season a common gull nested on the headland about 20m from the cottage, and there was a parent bird stationed permanently on the the chimney keeping watch. There were 2 oyster catcher chicks wandering around most days, not to mention the deer and occasionally the otters from a little further down the loch.
