Tigharry Schoolhouse

I found this house online when looking for somewhere to spend my 60th birthday with all my family. It surpassed our expectations and we are still talking about the house, the facilities, the decor two years later. All future holiday cottages have been judged against this property and so far none have matched it. We had a wonderful week there; beautiful deserted beaches which our dog adored. Very thoughtful touches from the owner and immaculately clean. Would love to return one day.

Where do you start … amazing conversion of a Schoolhouse in a fantastic location. The house is so comfortable and very well equipped. The house, with its mix of vintage and new furniture feels like a home from home. The gadgets, from the projector to the sound system were great. With the best quality bedding and appliances this is definitely a high spec and very special place to stay. The welcome hamper was luxurious and the numerous guides, maps and information provided was amazing. The location - 5/10 mins between 2 beaches was fantastic. We absolutely loved it !

We had a wonderful week in this breathtaking house. There is so much space and light and everything is beautifully curated, with so many thoughtful touches. The things that can sometimes annoy or detract were absent: the beds were big and deep, the showers were hot and powerful and the sofas were huge. We enjoyed the welcoming wine and snacks and were very restrained with the complimentary local gin. North Uist was fascinating and the beaches were wonderful. We hope to visit again soon.

Wow what a beautifully restored and decorated house. A lot of thought went into making this an amazing place. I will go back. Location perfect for walks, beaches and peace and quiet. But please don't tell anyone about this place :-).

A beautifully fitted out base in a true get away location. Every small detail has been thought through leaving space to relax and unwind. For lovers of nature, literature, music and beauty, worthy of a long stay.

Fantastic accommodation. The schoolhouse has everything you might want. We really enjoyed watching films on the home cinema, played the piano, used the bikes and surf boards. The nearby beaches are incredible, and there are plenty of places to walk and cycle. Just hope for reasonable weather!

We are a family of five(youngest 17) and we visited the Outer Hebrides during the Summer. We knew the weather may be unpredictable and decided a spacious property might be a good idea if we were going to spend time in it. The weather was not kind to us but thankfully it didn't really matter as we all enjoyed staying at The Schoolhouse so much. The property has so much space and so well equipped that we really had nothing to wish for. The conversion is superb, it seemed that everything had been considered and planned to the finest detail. The owner has been so helpful before we visited. Great!

I visited Tigharry Schoolhouse with seven friends and we had an incredible holiday. The house has been beautifully renovated with amazing attention to detail. All of the bedrooms were extremely comfortable, both stoves were lovely and cosy (and very quick to light) and we enjoyed use of all the mod cons (projector/music system). We did a lot of cooking throughout our stay and the kitchen worked wonderfully. The nearby beaches are beautiful and we even managed a midnight dip! I really can't recommend the schoolhouse enough. It's a very special place and made for an unforgettable trip!

Tigharry Schoolhouse is a living, crafted amidst far stretched islands(Hebrides). The house is stunningly bright and well-furnished consisting of all the necessary amenities. The living & dining areas are beautifully decorated and surrounded by plenty of indoor games and instruments & has one of the best libraries I have ever seen in a house. My stay at Tigharry schoolhouse was exceptional. The weather was mostly sunny and there were lots of opportunity for outdoor activities and scenic walks/Drives. The guidebook is well organised to make the most of outdoor/indoor stay. P.S Kind Host.

Thanks - we really enjoyed our stay. The house was beautifully furnished in a stunning, quiet location. We were blessed with good weather and went wildlife spotting, walking on the hills and on the beaches, and sea kayaking; but if the weather had been poor the house offers more than enough for relaxation with book, television, radio, and games. The pub down the road is also good. I'm sure we will return in the future.

Tigharry Schoolhouse is a wonderfully welcoming and incredibly well decorated place; Every single room offers you amazing sceneries and provides you the optimum confort. The surroundings are breathtaking , and yet , you are always looking forward to enjoying this beautiful house !

We really enjoyed the property and its offering. The welcome book is well organised and informative about the local amenities. It provides a true home away from home feeling.
