Flodabay Farm

  If you are looking for a place to rest and relax during your stay in Harris- look no further than Flodabay Farm. Tony and Sharon were so hospitable and helpful... read more during our short break. Tony and Sharon were always on hand to give advice about where to eat , where to kayak or swim. The chalet itself was finished to a high standard and had everything required for a short break. The hot tub was a lovely addition and the perfect place to sit in the evening to relax and take in the beautiful views. This was our first trip to Harris but it certainly wont be our last ! Thank you Tony and Sharon for making our trip so special! More

The fantastic new lodge is amazing the hot tub is fantastic too great to jump in with a beer and take in the superb view . Tony got us breakfast in the morning from the butty bus again a brilliant little touch. We love it up at Tony and Sharon's, and we will be having more holidays and little trips up to see you both. Thanks again for a lovely little break. We can highly recommend flodabay to everyone

Came across Tony and Sharon's website, and they offered their luxury chalet - they had us at the words 'hot tub'. On arrival Tony met us for a very thorough explanation of where everything was, and how everything worked, including the much anticipated hot tub, and very importantly the TV (Sky channels included) that rises from the bottom of the bed! The place was immaculate, with everything you needed for the stay - hob, oven, fridge, microwave, cooking utensils and the cutest chopping boards imaginable! The chess board based on the famous Lewis chess pieces was another lovely touch. Tony and Sharon were kind enough to include a breakfast pack for my other half's birthday, and he enjoyed a fry up on each of the morning we were there - the venison sausages were out of this world. This was easily the nicest, most luxurious, most awe inspiring place I have ever stayed. The views from the chalet are breathtaking - we enjoyed using the binoculars provided to try and birdwatch.

Tony and Sharon are so lovely and welcoming, and so kind to post back a jacket that we carelessly left behind (declining our offer to cover the cost of the postage!) They are perfect hosts in a perfect location and we cannot wait to return - for much longer next time!

Thank you Tony and Sharon! Can't wait to be back!! More

I stayed for two nights with my boyfriend and we loved the scenery that was around us encouraging us to use our time to explore and walk around flodabay. Tony and Sharon have amazing information packs and maps of the surrounding area which helped us plan out where we were going to go and what we were going to do. We were able to fully switch off from our busy lives by relaxing in the hot tub which has a Bluetooth speaker and when the night falls even has lights that come on. When it became colder outside into the evening the hot tub was still enjoyable with the perfect temperature. When it was time to go into the chalet we made use of the cookery appliances cooking a lovely meal. There was a good space to prepare and cook food as well as the clean up afterwards. The bed was comfortable and the telly comes out from the bottom which left the evening movie night feeling cosy and enjoyable. The shower is really powerful and is just what I needed in the morning to make myself feel fresh and then off for another dip in the hot tub to further relax. Again Tony and Sharon...

Again Tony and Sharon were the friendliest hosts and really took the time to explain and show around the chalet. They engaged in chit chat and made my partner and myself feel really comfortable and like we really were staying at a small home from home.

I will definitely be staying here again! It is well worth the hype and the experience again.

  Beautiful place with stunning views, we were greeted at the gate and checked in within a few minutes. We stayed in the chalet which was very clean , cosy &... read more homely. The layout in the chalet is great and there is everything you need for cooking to board games. The WiFi is excellent and the smart TV even has Sky Cinema on it. Our highlight was definitely the hot tub, so easy to use and the views from it either day or night are beautiful.
We definitely will be back again.
Thanks

Harris is by far our favourite island, the beaches, mountain climb, walks, swims in the crystal clear sea, great meals and really kind, charming people. Flodabay Cabin was absolutely perfect, a really comfortable sweet cabin, with fully working kitchen, oven and hob, microwave, fridge, (incl tea, coffee, salt & pepper) excellent bathroom / shower, very comfy bed with pop up TV screen! and the most important part.. the stunning views over Flodabay and hot tub. We would never book somewhere for the hot tub but here we used it every day, easy to use (uncover and step in) and we were able to enjoy those stunning views, even at night to enjoy gazing at the milky way, and also in the day to watch golden eagles soaring over head. Breathtaking. We were lucky with the weather, sunshine to explore and enjoy the views. It rained the last part of our trip and the cabin was the perfect place to rest, and get cosy in-between walks. The B&B is a separate business down near the house.

We stayed 4 nights.
Thank you Tony for making us feel so welcome and for checking in with us throughout the stay. It was hard to leave.

  What a lovely wee slice of heaven. The chalet is a perfect secluded getaway. The stunning backdrop of the Harris moonscape landscape and hills is sublime. Sitting in the cozy... read more hot tub watching the milkyway for shooting stars was something else! The chalet itself is cozy with plenty space for weekend walking gear and amenities for cooking whatever you fancy! The hosts Sharon and Tony couldn't have been more helpful or friendly during our 3 night stay! Absolutely would return for more Island adventures and little bit of private seclusion far from anyone!

  I stayed at Flodabay for 5 nights and wish I'd stayed longer. I'd been in communication with Tony for well over a year and had to rearrange once because of... read more the pandemic - all communication was prompt and friendly with nothing too much trouble.

The excellent communication continued on the day I travelled and Tony was there to meet me on arrival to show me around. His pride in the cabin and its facilities was obvious and is entirely justified. The cabin is thoughtfully laid out and everything needed for a comfortable stay is there - even including SKY sports on the large TV that rises from the end of the bed!

The surroundings are absolutely beautiful with a number of lochs surrounded by hills that come to life as the light hits them to one side, and the sea to the other side. It's very easy to pass time sitting on the deck, or in the hot tub, with a bottle of the excellent local beer. I can also recommend Tony's venison sausages and wild boar burgers - and another beer.

Did I mention I wish I'd stayed longer? I've booked for 2 weeks next year 🙂 More
