Uig and the Hebrides in general are the perfect place to relax and unwind. This scenic area of Lewis, on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, is an area of outstanding natural beauty with many unspoilt beaches, moorland, lochs and coastal scenery.
It is great for the hillwalker, fisherman/woman, nature-watcher, historian. The ever-changing light in the Outer Hebrides is of amazing quality for the photographer. Catch the early morning light or evening sunsets for breathtaking images.
Children-fly your kites, build sandcastles, run barefoot on sands, paddle in the incoming tide, float with body-boards,search the sea shore for crabs, swim if you wish!
Uig has its very own distillery at Abhainn Dearg which is just across the bay

Mehr als erwartet

Unser Urlaub war herrlich, Das Haus war super sauber und sehr liebevoll eingerichtet (zum Beispiel selbst aufgenommene Fotos der Region, sehr passend und stimmig). Die Lage ist unbeschreiblich, morgens weckt einen (wenn man die Vorhänge nicht zu zieht) der Sonnenaufgang über der Bucht. Die Lage in Südlewis erscheint uns allen als Beste auf der ganzen Insel, Grade die Bucht von Uig ist wunderschön, nur ein richtiger Pub hat gefehlt. Übrigens war dies der erste Urlaub, bei dem ich weinen müsste, als er zu Ende war!
