A very warm welcome to our beautiful self catering chalet (the red & black building) at Hushinish Beach on the incredible Isle of Harris.

There are many activities right on our doorstep Hushinish Beach is simply breathtaking, watch for dolphins or otters, take a picnic with you or just play in the white sands, take in some of the fantastic hiking for all levels which will lead you to pristine remote beaches or climb Clisham the highest peak in the Western Isles at 799m (Corbett), cycling is very popular along our single track road, there is fishing to be found, kayaking sea or loch, rock climbing, golf & remote tennis courts.
Tarbert provides a wonderful pool, spa, sauna and fitness suit, two friendly hotel bars, the village also has three shops, filling station, library, tea room, and of course the Harris Tweed shop. We are a fantastic base from where you can take many day trips like the 50 mile circular drive of the Island which includes Rodel Church or drive North to the breathtaking Callanish Standing Stones.
