Link to more photosThis is a popular hotel for business and pleasure in the Uists, thanks to its central location and larger size than most in the area (42 rooms).   

A good proportion of the accommodation is on the ground floor, with just a few steps down from the reception area.  Rooms are comfortable, with en-suite facilities, TV, phone and hospitality tray.

Cheerful, friendly staff in the restaurant offer a wide choice of dishes and a good range of specials and bar meals is also available.

A comfortable lounge area is equipped with a computer that's available for guest use and there is a selection of reading matter. 

At the side of the hotel, a track leads directly over machair to the beach. On a summer evening, as you stroll along the machair tracks close to the hotel, you may hear corncrakes, oystercatchers and lapwings calling from the vibrant patchwork of machair cornfields. Next to the track, orchids bloom in a variety of competing purples.

The Sgoil Lionacleit Sports Centre is within easy walking distance, offering swimming pool, fitness suite and sauna. (Link to information)

Hebridean Adventures plan to operate full day rib-boat trips to visit the Monach Islands (Eilean Heisgeir).  Situated a few miles west of Benbecula, the Monach Islands' breeding group of seals is the largest in Europe, with 8,500 pups being born each autimn. The isles are also home to large numbers of seabirds, including black guillemots and terns, whilst the machair displays a rich variety of plants. £80 pp.
