    Great place and example of the original Iron Age "brochs". Also offers a wonderful landscape.

    It was quite a superb surprise to discover the history of this beautiful place. An isle with rocky causeways leading to the remains of an ancient iron age broch. Worthwhile to read up about it and walk on ancient stones. Be careful not to lose your balance! The circular shape of the broch tower is clear to see despite its fallen state. The walls were once 3.5 metres thick and there was just one small door . Great mossy stones covered in lichen greet you if you make it onto the island.

    This was a last-minute stop when we noticed it in passing. Nice little bit of history and excursion over a walkway.

    A bit of a challenge to get across the causeways, but I managed without falling in. Make sure to get the Uist Unearthed app and you can see what it used to look like with augmented reality.

    Very worthwhile stopping point. Lots of fun exploring the two islands via stone causeways. Informative sign explaining the historical significance.

    Ruined broch on an island in a tidal loch. Accessed via causeways connecting to two islands. Causeway in disrepair, but one of the more interesting things we have done. Not much left of the broch

    Lovely place, where you even can use the fireplace. It's nice and clean, and the owners are very friendly
