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.

The chalet is set in a wonderful location, with many thoughtful additions which made our stay feel like a home from home.
The hot tub is an added bonus and... read more very welcome after long runs and walks.
This was our second visit, and both times Tony and Sharon were very welcoming and knowledgeable about the local area.
Harris has so much to offer and we look forward to a return trip.

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

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

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. There are two lochs to wander around right near by. The hot tub was the icing on the cake. Tony and Sharon are so lovely and welcoming, and so kind to post back a jacket that...

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

As soon as you drive off of the ferry onto Lewis/Harris soil, you know you're somewhere special. Despite being within view (just!) of mainland Scotland, you feel like you're on... read more a different continent, such is the rugged beauty of these wonderful islands. With the bendy, elevating, single lane roads, winding around the beautiful coastline, you could easily forget you're still on UK soil - by the way, did I mention the dolphins that swam along with the ferry?
As Tony meets you at the gates to the private croft that the chalet is located on, the adventure starts immediately, with a foot-down blast up the (fairly) steep gravel track that leads you to your little chunk of paradise.
The chalet itself is everything you'd expect, having read the description on the website, and seen the pictures. It's exactly as Tony and Sharon describe it - and then some.
What they can't describe (can anybody?) is the feeling you get when you walk around the chalet, look out over the bay (See attached picture) and realise that this piece of heaven is all yours for the duration of your stay. And I mean, all yours, it's so beautifully secluded.
In short, Flodabay Farm will reset your ideas of what relaxation is and send you home with a newly discovered calmness in a world that's currently going bonkers.
It's a Wonderful place! More
