Brighid, Melbost Borve, Isle of Lewis, Outer Hebrides, Western Isles
Brighid is an architecturally designed luxury holiday home located on the rugged North West coast of the Isle of Lewis. It offers panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean, blending seamlessly into its natural surroundings. Inspired by the agricultural heritage of the area, the home's design echoes the dark tones of the Lewisian Gneiss rock upon which it stands. Brighid is crafted to promote relaxation and foster a deep connection with nature, making it an ideal escape at the ocean's edge.
Situated on a small outcrop, Brighid is perfectly positioned to capture spectacular views stretching up to 30 miles along the island’s coastline. Catering exclusively to couples, it provides a peaceful and private setting for a tranquil escape.
The home incorporates advanced eco-friendly technologies, ensuring minimal environmental impact. It features an energy-efficient heat pump system for hot water and underfloor heating. For extra warmth during colder winter months, a small wood-burning stove adds to the cosy atmosphere. The design of the house prioritises natural light, with full-height, south-facing windows in both the bedroom and living area. These windows not only flood the space with light but also provide direct access to the outside decking, where guests can relax and enjoy the stunning landscape.
The bathroom is a standout feature, with its own full-height glazing and a freestanding bath. This offers the perfect setting for relaxation, whether guests are watching the sun set over the horizon or listening to the rhythmic sound of waves crashing against the shore.
Inside, Brighid’s interior design takes inspiration from the Scandinavian heritage of the island, combining minimalist, modern furniture with traditional materials. The result is a serene and stylish space that reflects the beauty of its surroundings.
Brighid comes equipped with a range of modern amenities to ensure guests' comfort and convenience. These include energy-efficient heating systems, digital wireless-controlled heating, and low-energy LED lighting. Privacy and light control are managed through remote-controlled blinds. For entertainment, there is a large 55” HD TV in the living area, and a Nespresso coffee machine is provided for guests to enjoy a selection of coffee capsules. Deck chairs are also available for outdoor relaxation, neatly stored in an external storage box for easy access.
