North Uist is renowned for its fresh and sea loch fishing particularly for brown trout sea trout and salmon. It is also a haven for bird watchers with the RSPB reserve at Balranald only a few miles away.

The open and relatively flat landscape makes it ideal for walkers and cyclists.
Shopping for provisions is straight forward and there are a number of hotels and pubs throughout the Uists And Benbecula for pub lunches and evening meals.

As the area is tidal a tidal clock is installed in the house to give precise indication of high and low tides. While the area is safe young children should always be supervised when on the sands as they may not be aware of tidal comings and goings.
It must be remembered that the house is situated on a working croft and while segregated in it's own grounds farm animals could be close by and they should always be left in peace
