Find us at: 1a Borve, Isle of Harris, Western Isles, HS3 3HT
Nestled at the edge of the small settlement of Borve on the west coast of the Isle of Harris in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland.

To the front of the house the large windows frame panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean, North Harris hills, island of Taransay and Chaipaval (Ceapabhal) with its distinctive feldspar trumpet. Crofting lands behind the house lead to the gentler hills of South Harris, peppered with small lochs and the remains of Duns and shielings. Borve beach is just a few hundred yards in front of the house and there is a large selection of other beautiful beaches within a few minutes drive including the world class Scarista Beach. Harris golf course is less than a 5 minute drive away and superb fishing is available nearby.

Harris is one of the most glorious of Scotland's islands boasting beautiful beaches offset by wilder landscapes and a very special array of plant and bird life. It is a fantastic place to just enjoy the amazing scenery and relax completely but there are also many things to do.
