Croft@42, Back, Isle of Lewis

This thoughtfully refurbished traditional croft house, Croft@42, offers comfortable accommodation with three bedrooms, sleeping up to six guests. Located just a short walk from the property, guests can enjoy the stunning sands of Gress and Back beaches, perfect for a seaside stroll. In the opposite direction, a peat road stretches for miles into the expansive North Lewis moor, offering a true taste of the island’s wild beauty.

For those looking to explore further, our welcome pack is filled with recommendations. Some must-see attractions include the ancient Callanish Stones, the historic Gearannan Blackhouse Village, and the impressive Iron Age broch at Dun Carloway. These sites offer a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of the Outer Hebrides.

A visit to the Isle of Harris is also well worth the trip. Though part of the same landmass as Lewis, Harris offers a strikingly different landscape, featuring dramatic mountains and some of the world’s most beautiful beaches. For those feeling adventurous, all-day boat trips from Uig or Leverburgh provide the incredible opportunity to visit the remote St Kilda archipelago, where you might even spot orcas and dolphins up close.

Whether you're looking to relax by the beach, explore historic sites, or embark on a wildlife watching adventure, Croft@42 provides the perfect base for an enriching and unforgettable experience in the Outer Hebrides.

Old Croft House, Back, Isle of Lewis, Western Isles, Outer Hebrides (Sleeps 1-8)

The Old Croft House can be found on the Isle of Lewis in the Western Isles. It is a high-quality holiday home that can sleep up to 8 people. It is set on a working croft in the village of Back. This family-friendly accommodation is ideal for those who want to explore the Outer Hebrides.

The holiday home has been thoughtfully appointed to ensure guests have a relaxing base from which to explore the area and to ensure it feels like a home away from home. 

You are not cut off from civilization completely here, whilst you can enjoy the peace and tranquillity of this beautiful Scottish location, there is Wi-Fi internet access throughout the house and a Smart TV for you to enjoy during your stay.

The Old Croft House is located on a working croft almost exactly in the centre of Back village, a fertile crofting township in the north-east of the Isle of Lewis. Just seven miles north of the main town of Stornoway, Back is an ideal location for a holiday in the Hebrides. 

The long, white sands of Back and Gress beaches are a few minutes walk from the house in one direction. Walk the other way and you're soon striding across miles of the heathery moor, dotted with trout-filled lochs and through which the Gress River runs (noted for its salmon and sea trout). There are plenty of quiet single track croft roads leading into the moorland, ideal if you feel like doing some cycling.
