This was the first time I'd stayed in a house lighted only by candles since I was a small child, over 60 years ago - and my wife and I loved it! The cottage is basic, as described, but perfectly adequate and, although strictly not needed, we lit the stove in the sitting room and it couldn't have been more cosy. The island is a fabulous place to see and explore. We were fortunate to have lovely weather and a stunning sunset which lit the sky until the early hours of the morning and, at dawn, the seals covered the beach - perhaps as many as 2000 of them - an amazing sight! We were left with memories which will last forever.....
