About

Wild Luxury

Your Hebridean Hideaway 

Welcome to The Sheep Station - a truly luxurious self-catering property located on the west coast of Harris in the Outer Hebrides.

The house sleeps two and is perfect for couples or singles seeking the utmost in sophistication and style in one of the most stunning and remote locations in the UK.

We appreciate that some guests may wish to experience more of our beautiful islands so, with this in mind, we offer 3/4 night short stays throughout the season as well 7 nights (or more) for those preferring a base from which to explore.

The interior is beautifully designed with a super king-sized bed, indulgent roll top bath, rainhead shower, Smeg appliances, and full laundry facilities.

Full Fibre broadband is freely available throughout the property  and we also provide guests with Sky and Netflix as well as the more traditional selection of DVDs, board games and plenty of beautiful books to browse at your leisure. 

Architect designed and recently constructed, the house overlooks the beach at Traigh Mhor, Scarista and offers spectacular and uninterrupted views of the Atlantic Ocean, the island of Taransay and the majestic Harris hills.

The beautiful beach is just a few minutes walk and is reached by crossing the dunes and the pretty machair during the summer months.

The Sheep Station was created to offer visitors a peaceful and remote place to holiday without compromising on quality or luxury. It provides the flexibility of a self-catering break with the ambience of a small, boutique hotel.

Guests may choose to simply nestle down and enjoy the many benefits of the house and take in the surrounding views from the comfort of the indoors, but for those wanting to experience the outdoors, the Isle of Harris is the perfect place to holiday with endless walks and hikes to suit all levels, amazing cycling and running routes and of course, abundant opportunities to enjoy the sea with everything from fishing to kayaking, wild swimming and surfing on offer locally.

The Sheep Station is the perfect holiday choice for wild-life enthusiasts, photographers and creative minds.

And, if you are a golfer - the famous Isle of Harris Golf Club is just a mile along the road. 

A warm Hebridean welcome awaits you with chilled Bollinger champagne and a selection of local treats for you to enjoy during your stay.
