Driftwood is an exceptional coastal home on South Uist, consistently described by guests as one of the best places they have ever stayed.
Set just moments from the sea, with breathtaking views across to Eriskay and Barra, the house is designed to make the most of its surroundings, with expansive windows framing ever-changing light, dramatic skies, and unforgettable sunsets.
Beautifully styled and finished to a high standard throughout, Driftwood offers a rare combination of comfort, space, and thoughtful design—creating a place where guests can truly relax, recharge, and experience the magic of the Outer Hebrides.
Upon entering Driftwood, you will be welcomed by the inviting open-plan living space, filled with the warmth and character, perfect for entertaining, with a kitchen to satisfy the culinary needs of your group, a dining area for enjoying delicious meals and a sitting area for relaxing and admiring the far-reaching views.
