Muirneag @ The Decca, Self-catering cottage, minutes from beach
The Decca is a former radio navigation station in the northwest of the Isle of Lewis near the Butt of Lewis. The conversion has retained some of the industrial features whilst creating spaces that are comfortable & welcoming.
We operate the cottages in an environmentally-friendly way in what we consider to be one of the most the spectacular settings in the world. We are situated near the beautiful Eoropie beach and within the glorious Loch Stiapabhat nature reserve with its wildlife observatory just a 5-minute walk away.
Eoropie Dunes award-winning childrenâs play-park, a swimming pool and sports centre (gym, sauna, sports hall, 10-pin bowling) also just a short walk away & the Butt of Lewis lighthouse is just a 5 minute drive.
Traditional island cottage with everything you need for a home to home stay. Very clean and well presented, comfy beds too, always a bonus.
Situated at the north end of Lewis itâs quite remote but amazingly peaceful.
Limited places to eat out and you need to book well ahead but the local restaurant does takeaway in the evenings and itâs two minutes away in a beautiful setting above the harbour and beach.
If you want to get away from it all and have a comfortable base this could be the place for you.
We loved it here and wouldnât hesitate in recommending The Decca.
The property is lovely, the downside we hit was the owners had obviously been painting the place smelt of paint (gloss) we were only there for 2 days and I had a headache from the paint the whole time even with windows open, The owners have been in touch to say it wasn't paint but oil from the radiators, but no mother comment on my other comments i left them.
Upstairs is lovely downstairs could do with a bit of TLC for the price charged I didn't expect to see chairs covered in paint, marked tables from drinks and bits and pieces it would take so little to bring it up to the standard they were charging for..I had to borrow an iron from a local as there was not one there and we were there for a wedding,It is a shame as it could/should be so good.
