About
Valasay Cottage is located across a footbridge at Valasay (Bhalasaigh) near Breacleit on Great Bernera, in the magical Outer Hebrides of Scotland. The self-catering cottage is perfectly situated to get away from it all and enjoy nature and tranquillity. There are a few honesty sheds nearby for essentials, the nearest larger shops are a 40min drive. Callanish standing stones are 20min driving, Arnol blackhouses 45min. For otters and sea eagles, you might not need to leave the cottage at all, as both are occasionally seen, both in Tob Bhalasaigh and along the seashore.
Tob Bhalasaigh is designated as a priority site of special scientific interest as a sheltered lagoon with a rare mixture of seaweeds only found in this unusual mix of salt and freshwater. The "Great Bernera Trail" leading up to the magnificent beach at Bostadh passes through Valasay, it takes about 2h to walk to Bostadh. Chances are you'll need longer because every 10 minutes you'll stop to take in the scenery and look for birds and cetaceans. Callanish standing stones are a 20min drive away, Gearrannan Blackhouse Village is 35min away.
The cottage has two bedrooms, one with a king-sized bed and one with two singles. The kitchen is spacious, this is where you eat and discuss which beach is the most beautiful. The lounge with a view of the garden has a TV and a fireplace, ideal to sit and learn what "relaxing" is in Gaelic. The bathroom has a bathtub / shower.
