Daliburgh is a town on South Uist in the Outer Hebrides and is known for being a crofting town. There is a memorial here to commemorate the life and works of Donald Allan MacDonald, a Gaelic poet who lived in Daliburgh in the mid 20th century. It is a great base from which to explore a fantastic selection of activities from fishing and walking to diving and birdwatching. The nearby Askernish Golf Course is always popular and was originally designed by ‘Old’ Tom Morris and is popular with golfers keen to test themselves on this challenging course. Dining options include fish and chips from the Burnside Chip Shop or for something a little more fancy dine in at the Borrodale Hotel. While you are in Daliburgh you can stock up on supplies at the supermarket and there is also a number of other shops including gifts shops. A short distance from Daliburgh is the fascinating Kildonan Museum and the birthplace of Flora MacDonald as well as a host of fabulous beaches just waiting to be discovered.

  • Susan

    Super location with incredible views. Very peaceful and relaxing feeling as soon as you enter the house. The host provided us with a very generous welcome pack of delicious treats which were very well received. Would return to Seaspray cottage anytime. We absolutely had the best time.

  • Amy

    The cottage was clean, comfortable and had everything we could possibly need. The views from the cottage are outstanding! This is one of the best holiday cottages we have ever stayed in! The Uists are a magical place, with beautiful scenery and lots of wildlife and we are already planning our return!

  • Viola

    We didn't put the telly on for our entire stay. Who needs it if you have such a view of Eriskay and Barra.
