Langass Lodge

We had so looked forward to stay at Langass after reading all the fab reviews. As it was Suday and most places are closed and we had travelled for quite a long time we thought we would chillax in our beautiful room. But…. Instead we got a room that we quickly named ”the cupboard over the stairs”. This was in the old part of the building and so small that there was no space for our bags and no space to sit or be. The bed was so narrow we could not sleep and the room being right over the kitchen also made it impossible to rest. The sounds from the kitchen and the kitchen fan stopped around 23.30 the first night and in the morning we got woken up by a cheery ”good morning” at 6 from staff arriving. The room also got whiffs of deep-fry. It felt as if the room was part of the kitchen, ||||Of course, this room should not ever be rented out, it is of something from the 19th century, dreary and terrible. We had to pay full price for it.||||When we said we could not stay in this room we were shown the neigbhoring one with a warning that it was right beside the kitchen fan. Well, the room we had was just as affected.||||We where laughing when trying to use our key holder as a magic wand and maybe transform the room with a Expecto spell. ||||People working at Langass are nice enough but not really interested. The feeling was that they have nothing to say but only can repeat som orders they got. It is as if you as a guest is more a hinder to their work than a person that are there for vacation.||||On the bright side, the food is really good and also the pillows. The room was very clean.||||Langass is very dreary old style and we were singing happy songs when we left!

We booked and ate in the bar. The service was very good and the food was amazing. Starters of duck satay salad and the most amazing fish cake with garlic mayonnaise. The food was clearly home made and super tasty.|Main course was haggis needs and tatties with peppercorn sauce and a gluten free fish and chips with amazing crispy batter. Both delicious. I really wanted a local lamb burger but it was sold out. The haggis did not disappoint though.

We ate here on our first night on the isle,it was so good that we booked to come back on our last night! There was also a lovely couple celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary! As we celebrated our engagement 💍 The seafood was amazing, a big well done to the chef and the team!

Langass is a hunting lodge not a fancy hotel but charming nevertheless. Food is excellent. Hotel building has traditional rooms - the dog friendly rooms are in newer wing but rooms are huge and open onto garden - full of rabbits! And an otter whom we didn’t see. Many guests come to fish and shoot but others like us are tourists or bird watchers. There’s a nice hike up over the Hebridean Way at side of hotel to hill top views. We enjoyed the trad hunting lodge experience as something different. Staff were lovely and it was all part of the North Uist experience - in a good way

Very cozy hotel rooms, delicious food in the restaurant and nice bar! Thw staff ist very helpful and nice, too. The breakfast buffet was way too big, in our opinion. We already indicated to be vegetarian, and they still displayed lots of meat products and a variety of other fresh products. The conveyor toaster was running non-stop. It seems like a lot of energy and food waste. Let's hope we are wrong.

Called in for a lunch, the Cullen skink, a fish based dish, was excellent (they had changed it to a haddock base like chowder for the day). Staff were friendly and helpful. The gardens are very nice with a few swings for children. Off the main A road but was worth the visit.

Langass Lodge We had one dinner here in the restaurant, in June. The atmosphere was very pleasant. The bar is less formal. The food was delicious, staring with “home-made” bread. My partner had Sea Trout and Langoustine, with Lobster Bisque sauce and some delicious vegetables in various forms. I had Surf and Turf featuring two big cubes of tender beef fillet, cooked rare as requested. It was a little ‘gamey’, which I didn’t mind. Our desserts were also excellent. Passion fruit cheesecake was light with a hazelnut base, a far cry from a standard cheesecake. Crème brullée was also good. Overall it was a treat good enough for a special occasion meal, although there were some service slip-ups: - I asked for a cushion to support my back but the server just forgot and I had to ask again. - After being presented with our bill (about £100 for two people with one 2 drink each included), nobody came to take payment for some 15 minutes, and we had to find someone in the bar. If that was the standard procedure nobody had told us.

The splendid company, Hebridean HopScoth Holidays, based in Stornoway, organised our recent most enjoyable tour of the Hebrides from Oban to Ullapool and on to Gairloch, arranging all our ferry crossings and hotel stays but only after detailed discussions with us. Everything went well, nothing more so than our two stays at Langlass Lodge, the intended one of two days duration, the second unintended one for one day only. My car broke down a few miles from the hotel on our journey there from Barra. A member of the hotel’s staff picked us up and, after transferring all our luggage to his car, took us not just to the hotel but also helped carry our suitcases to our very comfortable bedroom. Dinner was delayed permitting our car to be collected to be transported to the exceptional Laing Motors Ltd in Lochboisdale for repair. The hotel accommodated us for a further night to enable us to collect the once again fully functional car.|This country house hotel lies about half a mile along a drive from the main road in a very peaceful, quiet country setting, one where you can forget all the cares of your day-to-day life. Our bedroom on our first stay was very spacious situated in the newer extension, with spectacular views overlooking the nicely laid out hotel gardens and the moors and loch beyond, on our second visit we enjoyed an equally well appointed, but smaller, room in the original building, more than adequate for a short stay but, perhaps, less adequate if staying for a few days, and who would not wish to spend a few days here!|Breakfast was served in the dining room where we also dined on our first visit but ate our evening meal in the bar on our return visit.
