“A surprisingly enjoyable stay”
+The location was wonderfully remote, along miles of single-track roads, with wonderful sea views. The byre felt very homely with eclectic rustic furnishings and good quality linens. The kitchen had virtually every utensil you could possibly need. The stove was easy to light and made the byre nice and cosy, but there were electric heaters too if you needed them. The washing machine was useful, with a washing line outside and ingenious hanging lines upstairs too.
−Because the bedrooms were in the roof space with sloping ceilings, the beds were very low to make good use of floorspace. This would only be a problem for people like us with ageing knees, but we managed.

“Did the job”
+What a wonderful location. Fire kicked out a lot of heat, so we were warm, and there was plenty of hot water. Parking was fine.
−One sofa (sofa bed)in the lounge is in very poor shape - we were only a party of 3, so did not have to use it, but if you were a larger group, it was VERY uncomfortable. The cottage is comfortable, but could do with some TLC. We acknowledge the price was fab, but the glasses, cutlery etc all needed cleaning really. An airer would have been useful, just to stand over the bath - the washing line was broken (we have now fixed it) but if the weather is wet, there is no where to hang wet clothes, other than over bannisters etc. Some very small adjustments would make this little place absolutly FAB

“Our stay was really cozy. It felt like visiting a friend’s house.”
+Everything! Helena made the Byre feel like home. She had the best stocked kitchen - all the right utensils, pots/pans, everything we needed; she had helpful hints about what to do while visiting; and she was completely responsive to all of my questions. Oh! And a bookshelf filled with local guidebooks. So so helpful!
−Absolutely nothing.

“A really great experience”
−Airebroc Byre was very comfortable and well equipped. The views were stunning and the location just superb. The multi fuel burner made it very cosy in the evenings. Will definitely book again if we return to Lewis.

“We chose this because we needed to be in the vicinity for a family celebration. We would return just because we were so”
+It was a cosy mishmash of crofter chic/charity shop treasures but with excellent bed linens and a well equipped kitchen. I loved it!
−It tested my aging bones getting out of bed!

“Needs TLC generally”
+Location and views were super
−Shabby. Needed a coat of paint on all walls, downstairs ceiling. Needs cupboard door in sitting room to conceal Hoover. China and cutlery is very poor quality.
