Wonderful getaway

Weaver's shed is a beautiful cosy wee cottage in a great secluded location with breathtaking views and only a short drive from Stornoway. I love that theres no wifi or TV and only just enough phone signal to send a quick text, perfect for a mindful retreat! I particularly enjoyed the luxurious bath and sauna that really made me relax and unwind. The host was very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend!

Stay at Susan's converted shed in Tolsta

We had a great stay at Susan's, the shed is wonderful, it provided the kind of experience we expected. Susan welcomed us with home-made cake and eggs, and she was very helpful and reactive. Nice communication. We definitely recommend this place to dicover Harris and Lewis!

Peace and quiet in Tolsta

Ideal for a couple of nights of peace and quiet in a location which feels remote but is actually not too far from Stornoway. The property is small but has everything you need, and the sauna in the bathroom is a rather nice extra.

We only had 2 nights at the Weaver's shed but would happily have stayed longer. Wonderfully peaceful and secluded and very comfortable. The sauna was a great boon.

Away from it all

Perfect place to sit back and relax in a very quiet setting. Nice getaway for the two of us. Susie left us some eggs and a few treats which we were grateful to enjoy. Easy access to Stornoway and other attractions on the island. Susie was helpful when checking in and kind to give us some morning tips for a days adventures. My husband loved the sauna and though the kitchen was small, we made it work for breakfast and supper. A lovely stay on a beautiful island. Thanks, Susie!

Lewis

The cottage is tucked in behind the main house, very cozy and private. Susie was a wonderful host and offered a lot if insight to the history of the people on Lewis. She was also a good source for suggestions on what to see and do. We enjoyed our visit very much.

Not secluded location

Must walk around owners home to apartment. Next to the rooster coop crowing for one hour each morning. Bed against the wall very uncomfortable hard bed. No cooking utensils. Half the apartment is dedicated to the bathroom.

Great base for Lewis & Harris 10/10

A great base to explore both Lewis and Harris. Easy reach of Stornaway and the ferry. Two beautiful beaches, within 15 minute drive north. This is a lovely, little building, with a great view from the open plan lounge/bedroom. There is a small kitchen area and a microwave and electric hot plate. The bathroom has a shower, bath and sauna and is modern. The converted Weaver’s shed is set away from the owners’ property and is very quiet. Susie and her husband were very friendly and informative regarding the island and things to do/places to visit. My partner and I loved staying here. Thank you!
