The Isle of Harris adjoining Lewis at its southern tip is a geological phenomenon. Its east coast is rugged and moon like whereas its west coast is more Caribbean without the heat!

Luskentrye and its surroundings is a vast expanse of pristine white sand and clear turquoise sea, backed by undulating dunes of varying height. It is a truly magical place whatever the season. To walk this shore, almost alone, and to experience the fresh bracing westerly breezes is just wonderful. It has been the inspiration for many a renowned Scottish artist as well as a place where newly weds can honeymoon or, “Will you Marry Me”, has been engraved in the sand, causing the happy lady to excitedly dash off into the sea in response.

It happened in our family, now living on Lewis, thus giving us the opportunity to visit this paradise, annually.
