"Probably one of the best houses to hire on Lewis."
Luxurious, immaculate, beautifully laid out on the inside and placed elevated over a wild and serene view. Don’t be put off by the road in front- the garden is secure if you have a dog and there is only occasional traffic between long periods of silence listening to the wildlife on the loch. Ideally positioned half way down to explore the islands in all directions. Welcome basket was extremely generous and kept us in meals until we could do a shop. Owner host was perfect too- just the right amount of communication at the start and end, and super welcoming. Perfect.

"We spent two weeks at this stunning cottage."
With amazing views over the loch the cottage is superbly situated for trips all around the island.
The cottage itself is wonderful and is of a very high standard with everything you would need to make this a home from home. Thank you to Donnie and Julie for the lovely welcome pack and the greeting.

"Caenn a Loch cottage is without doubt one of the best cottages we have ever stayed at."
From entering the cottage you are immediately wrapped up in the warmth and the very high standards throughout. You are drawn to the 2 welcome hampers (one being in the fridge) and then are amazed at the quality throughout. The cottage has underfloor heating (which we were grateful for) as well as being superbly stocked with everything you might need. The ice machine was a bonus for our Gs and Ts!
The beds are very comfortable and all the bathrooms furnished to a very high standard. The owner Julie, is very attentive as responds immediately to any queries you may have. The views are stunning and although the weather was inclement during our stay just watching the changing colours on the landscape from the comfort of the lounge made it much more bearable. I guarantee that if you stay here you will not be sorry!!

"Ceann an Loch provides an exceptional experience and we could not have asked for more."
It is a superbly equipped, luxury property, in a stunning location with the most generous host we have ever encountered. We simply could not have asked for a more idyllic place in which to celebrate our ruby wedding anniversary and it was a real struggle to leave at the end of the week. We cannot recommend Ceann an Loch more highly as an outstanding base for exploring the wonderful range of sights, sounds and foodie delights Lewis and Harris affords, or for just enjoying the views and the many species of birds, and fish jumping, from the comfort of the rooms and garden. This was certainly a haven to which we shall return and we are most grateful to Julie for her kindnesses.

"What a special property, set against the loch and conveniently in the middle of the island."
The property and facilities are five star and deserve the tag of 'luxury'. Our welcome hamper of local produce was a nice surprise and made us feel special. The local wildlife is literally at your doorstep, with birds a plenty and a Stag visiting on three occasions.

"What an extremely well-thought-out house."
Every bit of detail has been well considered. For example, the more than generous welcome basket, temperature control of each room, super king beds, super-soft bedding, open-plan kitchen diner and bean to cup coffee maker. What a wonderful view of the loch through front windows and waking up to the dawn chorus of cuckoo, arctic tern or oyster catcher! The surrounding hills produced exceptional views of white-tailed and golden eagle. We would highly recommend staying here at any time of year. Although we stayed in late May and the weather was warm, it is easy to imagine how cosy this property will be with the wood burner in much colder weather. Thank you to the owners. Everything was much appreciated.

"Just wow!!
What an amazing property"
. The photos don’t do it justice. One of the loveliest places I’ve ever stayed. Julia and Donnie were fantastic hosts. Available if needed and left a wonderful welcome pack.
The house is perfectly placed for exploring all of Lewis and Harris due to its central position on the Island.
Fabulous sunrises over the loch every morning. Beds so comfortable for a rested nights sleep.
Just fantastic. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to visit Lewis and Harris.

"The property is much bigger than the name 'cottage ' suggests ."
It is luxury accomodation with every amenity you could think of and in a superb location especially for access to Harris. There was a very generous welcome pack so you would be fine if you had no chance to pick up groceries before arrival. It is worth getting up early to see the sunrise over the loch. Hope we will get a chance to return again sometime. Joanne

"This was the second time we stayed at the lodge."
The place is centrally located, making it a convenient home base exploring the island. The location is perfect, a fenced large garden (ideal for our dogs), no neighbors and views for miles.
The interior is of a high standard, with all the equipment (and more) you need. The very friendly owner makes you immediately feel at home; a superb welcome hamper awaits you, together with fresh flowers. There is extensive documentation on the lodge, together with documentation and detailed maps of the island.

"A superb location at the foot of Loch Erisort."
Every day of our visit we were welcomed by a golden sunrise on the hills and on the Loch. The house is ideal, with plenty of space, many facilities (including the bean-to-cup coffee machine) and a local produce welcome pack. Travel around the island is easy from Balallan but, with the wonderful surroundings, you may not want to go far.
The living room gives a view over the loch and we had a visit from a Whitetailed Sea Eagle just across the road from the house.
Luxury, comfort and relaxation are well catered for in abundance.
