1 Strumore

The house was built in 1990 on the site of the crofthouse that my grandfather built in 1903.
It is about 1 mile from the pier at Lochmaddy and is on an elevated site with wonderful views over Loch Strumore, North and South Lee and Eaval, the three highest hills on the island.
Heating is by storage and panel heaters and there is an open fire as well.
A huge variety of birds can be seen from the living room, including regular sitings of short-eared owl, hen-harriers and sea eagles.
Please note: Arrival time in 4pm on day or booking.
Departure time is 10am.
This is to allow our very conscientious cleaner Jackie time to clean the house and change beds!

The house was redecorated internally three years ago including new curtains, and all the windows have been replaced in the past few years.
The original byre sits behind the house and bicycles and outdoor equipment can be stored there.
The garden is fenced and is very popular for sitting out when weather permits!
Red deer often visit in the autumn and winter and it is not unusual to see otters in the loch.

There are 3 steps into the house. No special adaptations.
