Beautiful Location
We love staying on the north shore and Hebrides Lane was a wonderful location for travel to and from Cavendish and anywhere else on the island. The red sand beach, right in front of the cottage, is filled with shells and colourful rocks and we had a nice firepit right on the beach one night. Most nights we had the beach to ourselves, despite it being a busy cottage community.
The cottage itself is basic (plywood floors) but well stocked, especially in the kitchen, and well decorated with island decor. The heat and humidity can be an issue without air conditioning so you have to keep the blinds drawn during the day and the windows open at night. The living room furniture could use an upgrade, the rocking chair is purely decorative at this point and the couch cushions had some stains. Do yourself a favour and leave the washing machine door open after use so that it dries out otherwise it has that moldy/mildewy smell so common with front loaders. The washer and dryer are a fantastic addition to the cottage that will keep you in clean beach towels (lots of nice ones provided) and allow for less packing (and more room for souvenirs!).
