There are a great many places of interest throughout the isles, and only a shor distance from Grogarry.

Visit the Birthplace of Flora MacDonald, who helped Bonnie Prince Charlie escape to Skye after his ill-fated attempt to gain the throne of Scotland. Whilst the Isle of South Uist is also the seat of Clan Ranald and the imposing remains of Ormacleit Castle testify to their historic power.

To the south, cross the causeway to the Isle of Eriskay, home of the hard-working Eriskay pony and the SS Politician, which ran aground in Feburary 1941 with 260,000 bottles of whisky in her holds. The local’s subsiquent salvage attempts inspired the book & film Whisky Galore.
