Borrodale Hotel

The Borrodale Hotel stands on South Uist. The dining room, set within original stone walls, serves local lamb, shellfish and daily catches, while the lounge bar stocks a wide selection of malt whiskies. For quieter moments, there's a snug off the main bar. The conservatory serves breakfast and home baking throughout the day, looking out over ground where short-eared owls hunt and herons fish. Staff know the island well and can point you towards walks, fishing spots or simply a good stretch of coast. There's practical storage for rods, bikes and golf clubs, and somewhere to dry kit after a day outside.
