Making the most of a rare sunny day this summer

01/09/2024

A weekend Island Hopping - North Uist, Grimsay Benbecula, South Uist, Eriskay, Barra and Vatersay. Amazing weather, fantastic accommodation at Barra Storm Pods, and the most unbelievable beaches. The Western Isles are definitely worth a visit - just a ferry ride from Uig.

Molly & Ben stayed last week and forwarded some photos from their 4 days here. The weather wasn’t the best for their holiday but they still managed to see quite a bit of the island - and have a lovely meal at the on their final night.

Lots of lovely Easter visitors over the last few weeks ☺️
Most exciting though was grandson Noah on his first trip to Skye (and then his tour of Sandys ‘work shop’ 🤗)

Another amazing meal at the Uig Hotel tonight. Fantastic Gluten Free options for starters, mains & desserts (just look at the fish & chips!), excellent wine & gins available too. Friendly and helpful staff - would highly recommend dinner there if you are staying with us 🥂

New keyrings for the pods, courtesy of Misty Isle Makes. Excellent quality - and great to be able to shop locally😊

A friend Rachel came and stayed at the pods for a few days - she is a keen hillwalker and took some fabulous photos during her trip. Thanks for letting us share them!

Double rainbow Sunday 🌈 🌈

29/01/2024

After a January filled with snow and winter storms it’s lovely to finally have a calm day… We’ve now moved onto refurbishing pod 3 hopefully reopening it at the beginning of March😊

18/01/2024

Still snowing…! Judging by the tracks in the snow the rabbits have been out early today.

17/01/2024

Another snow day on Skye

19/12/2023

We had a winter project - a re-fresh of pod 2 after having a burst pipe (which ruined the floor).
But ‘replacing the laminate’ ultimately turned into - cladding the bathroom and putting down new flooring, cladding the living area in a lighter wood, installing underfloor heating and replacing the laminate. Someone wishes they had never thought of it😂

23/10/2023

Couldn’t ask for a nicer day to be shovelling stones!

03/08/2023

Last piece of re-seeding completed in front of pods 5&6 - it was a long time coming..! We’ve also seeded part of our adjacent croft with wildflower meadow seeds - hopefully this will take before autumn and will be established for the spring for the butterflies 🦋 and bees 🐝 😊

30/07/2023

Some more fabulous guest photos from Danish couple Sofie & Andreas - thanks for letting us share them 😀

17/07/2023

Last night we put the finishing touches to pod 6, Staffa. We can almost see light at the end of the tunnel now (and it isn’t an approaching express train!)

Hello from Boris on a Sunny Sunday afternoon

08/07/2023

First night out this season, celebrating all pods now being open

What a difference in 8 months…

Big Reveal Wednesday…. 10th-28th June

24/06/2023

Some photos taken today by our guest Mathieu on a visit to Dunvegan. Thanks for sharing !

Island swapping for a couple of days and bikepacking in the Western Isles. Uist and Harris are only an hour 45 min from Uig and always worth extending a stay in the Highlands and Islands to take in the beauty of the Outer Isles

10/06/2023

Making the outside of pod 6 look respectable 😂. Landscaping almost done and seeding finally started.
