South Uist Self Catering

Hebridean Earth House is a single-storey house built into the hillside at Askernish, about 1.7 miles from Daliburgh on South Uist. The building is underground apart from a glass front looking over a loch, and solar tubes bring daylight into the rooms.

The house sleeps two in one double bedroom, with a shower room, a kitchen with electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge, freezer and washing machine, a dining area seating four and a sitting room with a plasma fire. It has underfloor heating, wi-fi, TV, a DVD player and a Bose sound system. Fuel, power, bed linen, bathrobes and towels are included in the rent.

Outside there is a non-enclosed garden with furniture and off-road parking for one car. One dog is accepted. The nearest shop and pub are in Daliburgh, and Askernish golf course is nearby. The house is booked through Sykes Holiday Cottages and its partner sites.
