Fodor's Expert Review Scarista House
Off A859, Borve, Western Isles, HS3 3HX, Scotland
This lovingly converted Georgian manse (minister's residence) offers large and comfortable bedrooms; a peaceful location with spectacular views over a pristine, 3-mile, sandy beach; and a dining experience that's unmatched on Harris. The hotel's communal lounge is as cozy as can be, with comfy sofas positioned around a roaring fire; pluck a book from groaning bookshelf and settle in for the evening. For longer stays, the hotel's self-service Glebe Cottage can be rented by the week.
PROS
- magnificent setting and views
- delicious food (try the tarte tatin)
- friendly and attentive service
CONS
- minimum two-night stay
- some oppressively floral wallpaper
- very expensive for Harris
