Description
he Tin House, originally built in 1932, retains much of its historical charm with a wooden frame and distinctive corrugated tin exterior. Its simple structure features two main rooms, an entrance hall, and a bathroom. Though a renovation is required, the home provides an excellent foundation for creating a retreat, preserving original details like internal matchboarding while incorporating modern insulation and comforts.
Situated on the Hushinish peninsula, this property offers breathtaking views of one of the most beautiful bays in the country, with distant glimpses of the remote St. Kilda archipelago. The area is a haven for wildlife enthusiasts. You can watch gannets dive into the bay, spot otters and seals frolicking in the water, and occasionally see basking sharks further offshore. Eagles, both golden and white-tailed, soar overhead, while the peninsula's smaller bays and inlets are home to oyster catchers and other birdlife. The sea eagles nesting on nearby Scarp provide an incredible spectacle for anyone with a passion for birdwatching.
For those looking to disconnect from the bustle of daily life and reconnect with nature, the Tin House offers an unparalleled opportunity. With direct flights to Stornoway from Southend and easy access from Glasgow, it’s easier to reach this remote paradise than one might think. The scenic drive from Stornoway airport to the northwest coast of Harris leads to this quiet, captivating peninsula, making it a perfect getaway for anyone seeking calm, solitude, and a deeper connection to the natural world.
