Glamping

A small croft in the village of Borve on the Atlantic side of the Isle of Lewis, roughly halfway between Barvas and Ness. Tents and campervans pitch anywhere on the croft beyond the pods, and a footpath runs down to the sea in about ten minutes.

Two camping pods sleep two or four, and a separate amenity pod has two shower and toilet rooms. A converted barn gives everyone a seating area with fridge, freezer, kettle, microwave, washing machine and tumble dryer, which is welcome after a wet day in the Hebrides. Borve shop, a takeaway and a hotel serving food are all around ten minutes' walk away.
