A traditional Lewis croft house, sensitively refurbished to the highest standard. We have one dowstairs double bedroom and two upstairs bedrooms (one double, one twin). The kitchen has all-new appliances fitted (including dishwasher), whilst the spacious lounge area has a wood-burning stove.
Hi, I'm Shona and I was born and brought up in the Isle of Lewis. My interests include walking, gardening, travel (seeing different places), and dogs. I've never tried hosting before but am looking forward to meeting new people.
A few minutes’ walk from Croft@ 42 in one direction takes you to the sands of Gress and Back beaches (the background image of this page). Go in the other direction and follow a peat road for miles into the vast North Lewis moor. Fancy going further afield? Check our welcome pack for more ideas, but the Callanish Stones, Gearannan Blackhouse Village and the broch at Dun Carloway should be on anyone's bucket-list.
