Link to more photosPromoted at the end of 2008 to the 4-star Inn award, the Polochar Inn stands in a stunning position at the south west tip of South Uist.  On the edge of the coastal machair, it's close to a magnificent sandy beach and offers panoramic views of Eriskay and Barra.   

Gold Award Western Isles Holiday AccommodationIdeally located for exploring the southern end of the Uists, the Polochar is only a few minutes drive from the causeway to Eriskay and the ferry to Barra.  Eriskay is a haven for bird watching, fishermen, hill walkers, archaeologists, cyclists (who need a sense of humour to climb the short sharp hill to the ferry) and those who just like to sit and look. 

The inn has been well modernised by its owners, offering luxurious bedrooms and residents' facilities, while retaining its old character.  It has a good reputation for food, real ale, and friendly service.

Standard rooms are available in price group 3 and the more spacious Superior roms are in our Select Collection.  

Select Collection - Holiday Accommodation in the Outer HebridesMaking holidays extra special in the Hebrides, Superior rooms have been selected for their added luxury.

You can relax in leather armchairs in the residents' sitting room, beside the fire in the lounge bar, or enjoy local company in the public bar, which as just as smart as the other areas.

Or, on a mild summer evening, sit outside at the water's edge, listening to the corncrakes calling from the tall vegetation in neighbouring crofts.  There's every chance of seeing otters and bottlenose dolphins here.

Suggestion

From the Polochar Inn, enjoy the spectacular scenic coast and beaches towards the causeway to Eriskay.  There are only a few places to park a car along this stretch of road, so it's a good  idea to take the opportunity for a stroll here.
