This little gem is in the centre of Daliburgh. Next to the only Co-op on the island and just along the road from the pub, The Toolshed is warm and inviting, beautifully lit with large velux windows and the perfect place to recharge your batteries whilst exploring South Uist and beyond. The property has been developed to a high standard and much thought has gone into making sure it has everything you could need for a perfect getaway.
I love this island and my wee property on it. I hope you do too.
The Toolshed is centrally located in Daliburgh, with easy access to the ferry terminals in Loch Boisdale nd Eriskay and close to stunning beaches
