Luskentyre is situated on the spectacular west coast of the Isle of Harris. The elevated balcony in our self-catering flat gives you a stunning view of an ever changing scenery because of the various colours and shades. At low tide the whole bay of Luskentyre emerges to reveal the extensive beach washed by the channels of shimmering sea water, with ever-changing colours, blues and turquoises of the sea, near whites of the sand, different blues / greys and white of the skies, greens of the maram grass, greys of the rocks and finally at sunset, the reds and oranges at the end of the day.
The peace, tranquillity, privacy and the slow pace of life make this apartment a great place to "get away from it all" and relax in the midst of this extensive and varied natural beauty.
