Monthly Rentals in Mingulay

We had a fabulous stay - the cottage is authentic yet has every comfort you could possibly need. Notwithstanding the quality of the cottage what set it apart for us is the location. As a fairly regular visit to the islands to get a stay on Vatersay was an opportunity too precious not to take up. The cottage is on top of a hill with views in all directions - with everything on the island in walking distance - follow the Uidh road to a number of remote beaches with views across Castlebay - or make your way around the island to the justifiably famous beaches below. We also sensed the tragic local history of Vatersay - read ‘Vatersay Raiders’. The cottage surrounded by the foundations of former crofting homes - it is humbling to think of those who lived before and the thriving community that makes the island a unique place today. The other convenience is despite the isolated surroundings, the hub of Castlebay is only 10 minutes away - with its restaurants and supermarkets. Wonderful!

This is my second time booking with Paul, had a great stay again. Everything was squeaky clean and peaceful. Thanks again Paul!

Difficult to describe in a few words how perfect the cottage is. From the moment you enter (even on a cold wet October evening) how warm and cosy and right at home Dalmatian cottage makes you feel. Everything from the lovely wine glasses to the beautiful bed linen is 5 star. Every comfort is provided for. With just a few minutes walk to 3 stunning beaches it could not be in a better position. It is hard to do this home justice it is even harder to leave. Loved every moment here.

This is a really wonderful place to stay in Barra and I would look no further on where to book. Peaceful, quiet, beautiful, just incredible! Michelle is very lovely and kind, very great support and advice to make sure your stay in Barra is grand.
