Trek and Treat

Getting to Hushinish, North Harris, is quite a trek, but every foot of the way is worth it. The metalled road commands unrivalled views and the beach is among the most highly-rated in the UK. There's a recently-finished, self-catering, sea-shore cottage, Ceol na Mara, that deserves consideration and, at least, a website visit. Occupants find themselves 'a world apart' - with Scarp and Loch Resort around the corner - and yet with home comforts and pleasurable treats right there.
