The Berneray/Leverburgh ferry is within easy reach and Lochmaddy, which boasts two hotels, Doctors surgery, bank and ferry terminal (Lochmaddy to Uig, Isle of Skye), is approximately 12 miles away.

Berneray is an enchanting island located in the Sound of Harris and is linked to North Uist by causeway. It is inhabited by around 120 people served by a local shop/bistro church, community centre and fortnightly doctor’s surgery. Local buses run regularly. Schools are located at Paible and Liniclate.

As well as its Gaelic speaking heritage, Berneray is traditionally a crofting island with a working harbour and a wealth of flora and fauna. See also www.isleofberneray.com and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berneray,_North_Uist
