Completed in 2009, Carrick is a fusion of island tradition and the latest in  sustainable design. Whilst reflecting the scale, proportions and simplicity of older island croft houses, Carrick is no dull recreation of a mythical yesteryear, but is light airy and spacious. With its panoramic views across the Sound of Eriskay, and set on our traditional Hebridean croft, abundant with wildlife, Carrick is quite simply a wonderful place to live - if only for a week or two!
