David and Leanne are the most perfect Inn keepers. We arrived on our bikes rather late and very wet, from that moment on they did everything they could to be welcoming, kind and helpful. The restaurant provided us with delicious food for dinner and a scrumptious breakfast to set us on our way. Thank you for everything 🤩

Disappointing The hotel has seen better days although the restaurant was clean our room was far from it and unfortunately had a smell of smoke. The manager was very concerned that we hadn’t paid when we had paid a 30% deposit in December and the full amount 5 days ago. The food was ok but having travelled through north and south uist this was the most disappointing stay and not comparable with other hotels. The waitress from Liverpool was most helpful and kindly and working her socks off -she seemed to be doing everything -maybe staffing is a problem but think the new manager should reevaluate what they are offering, and get a decent cleaner Didn’t say anything at the time because the lady was doing her best.

Great place. The position is lovely, overlooking the water. The management couple were a joy, Very friendly and helpful - nothing was too much trouble. The food was superb, with thoughtful cooking and excellent ingredients. It was a very enjoyable stay with a light touch. The Liverpudlian input from the lady manager was a joy.

Great location, nice food, really helpful staff, no I mean REALLY helpful staff. The hotel is set on the southern tip of South Uist. it overlooks the sea. Round the corner is the small but charming isle of Eriskay.

A great stay. David and Lianne are new to the role, friendly and enthusiastic about the hotel. Views are second to none looking over the Atlantic and across to Barra. Excellent food and a great room. Tell David to keep off the chocolate.

Wonderful views, warm welcome and a lovely brunch by the sea. There is a public bar and lounge bar and outdoor seating area overlooking sea with islands in the distance. The place was quiet as out of season and I hope it gets busy in the summer as it deserves to thrive in such a lovely location - quite unique.

Booked dinner here while staying close by in our caravan. Was a little nervous having seen some negative reviews regarding previous management. Our fears were soon dispelled as we were warmly welcomed on arrival and the new manager was lovely and friendly, nothing was too much trouble. The meals we had were delicious and would certainly recommend eating here if you're in the area. The new manager only arrived 4 weeks ago but is definitely having a positive impact.

We enjoyed our short stay at Polochar Inn. The Manager and Manageress were extremely attentive and even made us lunch boxes for the next day - as sadly our ferry back to the mainland was rescheduled to 4am!!!! We didn't get the chance to eat breakfast but our evening meal was excellent.
