Very much enjoyed our 3 generations stay at Altabrug.
Very much enjoyed our 3 generations stay at Altabrug. Have visited family in South Uist for many years but never ventured down the Stoneybridge road. Bikes hired from Lochboisdale and delivered to the door helped us explore the area during some lovely weather. The cottage had large windows throughout which allowed us to enjoy the views and the wildlife. Our wee dog enjoyed the freedom around the cottage and loch.
Fabulous location. Right on loch, close to most beautiful beaches. Both with temps way above the NE.
Best family holiday for years. Nice touches here and there. If you arrived with nothing in the middle of the night you’d cope what with the spare/extra food and household essentials. Great to not have to be concerned about bedding or towels. Sorry we ended up with 3 towels in our laundry. Will launder and return.
The views are amazing. The loch warm enough to swim in. And fish. Don’t know about the rules of the latter but we caught nothing anyway.
The beaches are somewhat amazing- even though we live in Northumberland which takes some beating.
No WiFi- well sketchy 4G but that made my holiday better. Mum the only one with WiFi access. Will visit again that’s for sure.
