Isle of North Uist Balranald RSPB Reserve Hotels

"The place was perfect, very clean and cosy and well equipped. Lovely walk right on the doorstep. Thank you for the stay."

"We booked Maari for a few days to see the Uists. The property and the islands both deserved a longer stay."

"This is no ordinary pod. It is beautifully presented with so much thought given to it's furnishing. I didn't expect to find a wine fridge or induction hob, but there they were. The towels are luxurious and the toiletries are classy. There are even pods provided for the Nespresso machine! The fridge is stocked with essentials, and even some non-essential treats. Just as importantly, I was given a proper warm welcome on arrival. I loved my stay here. PS The eggs were delicious."

"A beautiful cosy bolthole in the glory of the Western Isles. Perfect for snuggling in and watching the scenery, or as a base to explore the islands. Everything you need to have a quiet time away from it all. Wildlife in abundance."

"This is a beautiful bungalow, well equipped and perfectly located for visiting Benbecula and the Uists. Our host was extremely helpful and always very quick to respond. We had a ferry cancellation and he offered us an extra night as he had no other guests expected which was extremely kind. He also gave us lots of tips for places to visit and where to eat.The home is spacious and close to a supermarket, baker, butcher and a couple of places to eat. There is a lovely beach 10 minutes walk away. We reported a small issue which was fixed quickly.Altogether a wonderful stay in a lovely home."

"This house is in a great position with wonderful views. It is very spacious and has everything you need. It was spotless and has good drying facilities for those wet days that can happen! Great for beach walks and bird watching from the house. We would like to return."

"A beautiful property in a stunning location. Perfectly sized for my family of 5. Would have loved to have been able to stay longer. A huge selection of activities and equipment available to try at the property and communication with the owner was terrific. Would definitely recommend. "

"The cottage was perfect....clean, cosy, excellent information in the cottage eg lights labelled, instructions for all appliances etc. Felted artwork beautiful. Yoh can see and feel the care and attention that has been put into making it a lovely place to stay.Good location for exploring outer islands ie close to ferry ports. "

"We’ve used the hotel for business trips for several years. The new owners have continued to deliver a high standard and a warm welcome. Looking forward to returning later in the year. "
