Kinloch on South Uist offers some of the finest accommodation on the island.

Kinloch stands on the shores of Loch Druidibeg and is now run by RSPB in association with the community company.

Kinloch will remain open in 2025 but as in the past more as a Lodge than a traditional B&B.

Most of my guests are single fishermen and this is reflected in the pricing per person rather than per room.

See the tariff page which shows single occupancy for a room at £80 per night and dinner will remain at £27.50 for 3 courses.

I will take double occupancy (sharing) for a room at £130 per night.

As in the past I require a minimum of a 2 night booking. This may not suit walkers and cyclists on the Hebridean way but it is as it is.

There are as ever 2 double (king size beds) rooms – one upstairs with a large en-suite bathroom and another downstairs (also king size) with its own private shower room - literally 2 paces across the hallway.

There is also single upstairs (to share the upstairs bathroom) for friends

So - a maximum of 3/4 persons at the same time. Small by many standards – but reflecting the quality of the offer.

I have put a lot of work into the garden which is increasingly impressive – the vegetable garden offers more and more home grown produce. There is a small flocks of hens which provide first class organic eggs.

The area remains totally underdeveloped and the position on the side of Loch Druidibeg quite spectacular.

Your host (an Englishman) has lived here for 20 years and is highly knowledgeable about the fishing on both the Estate and Angling clubs lochs. I am happy to advise, and help construct, a plan for new fishing guests.
