Location and Contact

Location

• By Bus
• Most of the Citylink and Stagecoach buses pass right by the bottom of our driveway, and if you ask the driver nicely they will drop you there. This saves a 30 minute walk up from Uig Pier.
• By Car
• From Kyle of Lochalsh
• Head through Kyle of Lochalsh on the A87, crossing the Skye Bridge into Kyleakin. Once over the bridge, turn right at the roundabout, staying on the A87.
• Keep on this road, through Broadford and Sligachan, heading towards Portree.
• Before reaching Portree town centre, turn left towards Uig (A87). Go past The Co-op supermarket and head out of Portree. Keep on the A87 towards Uig, ignoring a left turn towards Dunvegan after a few miles.
• Once through the village of Earlish, you will start travelling downhill in to Uig, with the bay visible on your left.
• Look out for The Cowshed sign on the right hand side, just after The Mission Church.
• We are at the top of a steep driveway (use Manual 1st gear or Automatic Low) and are not in the village itself. If you reach the Uig hotel you've gone too far.

• Head towards Garve, travelling on the A835 for a short time before turning left on to the A832 towards Achnasheen.
• At Achnasheen, keep left on to the A890 towards Lochcarron.
