Holiday Ideas in the Outer Hebrides

Find a place to stay that’s perfect for you.

If you’re looking for something a little different, perhaps near one of the endless empty beaches, or a romantic Hebridean getaway, a luxurious glamping pod, a traditional thatched cottage or crofthouse, a pet friendly pad, a place close to wildlife, a large house to accommodate the family or one of the many contemporary architectural wonders, you will find lots of possibilities in the Western Isles.

Quality comes assured because listed here are many businesses who have signed up to Outer Hebrides Tourism Members' Charter or been graded by VisitScotland. (Look out for the Outer Hebrdes Tourism Member Badge and Visit Scotland grading icons on accommodation listings).

Whatever your Outer Hebrides accommodation choice, you will have a perfect stay and be greeted with a warm Hebridean island welcome from our accommodation providers.

NB The Check Availability button in the Plan your Trip section has access to some but NOT ALL accommodation businesses. Please contact listings directly for availability.
