Pabbay Cottage provides an ideal base to explore the beautiful lsle of Harris. The Isle Of Harris is on the edge of Europe - next stop America. From the rugged mountains in the north, to the moonscape and deep bays in the east to the creamy huge empty beaches in the west , it is a magical island.

Walking and cycling are a joy here as , even in the busy summer months, the roads are quiet and the beaches almost deserted. You will see seals on the east side and porpoises and whales in the Sound Of Harris. Birdwatchers are laughing too with redshank and curlews near Northton and buzzards and eagles in the hills.

The interior is a fishermans paradise - the land of a thousand lochs . Brown trout and salmon await the patient. You could try sea fishing too - or even a trip to the legendary St Kilda.

For the artistic Harris is a haven. Follow the Harris art trail and visit the many galleries to see the wide variety of art work inspired by this beautiful island.

If this is all too much for you , just try the local produce in one of the many restaurants . Hand dived scallops, lobster ,smoked salmon or maybe try Hebridean lamb or venison in The Anchorage Restaurant.

Once you have seen all that Harris has to offer you can travel further afield - visit Lewis with the Standing Stones at Callanish or take a ferry from the pier to Berneray and North Uist.

We are renovating an old blackhouse and will not be ready til next April 20th for
our first let.
