New review- Absolutely Perfect!

Taken from Tripadvisor :

White House Lodge and the Island of Coll were perfect from start to finish. The house is amazing and big enough to accommodate, Four teenagers and three adults without us bumping in to each other. The house was very clean and everything you could need was there. White House Lodge was a very luxurious place to stay. You won't be disappointed at the quality of everything in the house.
The waves were amazing for body boarding and we highly recommend going to see Carole in the town to hire Kayaks or purchase some of the unusual items she sells.
The community centre was great for any rainy days as you can hire part of the hall for a couple of hours, to play table tennis, short tennis or basket ball. We were lucky that a Ceilidh took place while we were there and that was just such a good night. I thought four teenagers might get bored on a small Island with limited things to do, but they had a ball and they all said they would love to go back. And so would I

Pizza on the Beach!

We are delighted to see that an enterprising local will be cooking fresh pizzas every Friday (from 22nd May!). This is hugely exciting since it gives our guests an opportunity to have a break from langustine and Coll Hotel meals. Orders are taken by email to Coll_the_chef@hotmail.com up to 4 pm or 01879 230000 after that - just remember they don't deliver and only serve between 5 pm and 8 pm!

Surf board rack installed in garage for guest use

Having purchased a couple of surf boards for the use of guests at White House Lodge, we thought that we’d ensure that they get kept in a perfect condition. Off the floor, nice and dry and on view – perfect!

The top board is a pro board, so best avoided (unless you are a pro surfer – in which case, help yourself!)

Shed now has an easy access door

We love our guests using the shed to keep their toys and bikes safe and their wetsuits dry.

Their feedback was, however, that the big double doors were unwieldy and easily caught the wind.

We have therefore just added a pedestrian door to the shed to allow much easier access.

Enjoy the door.

Star Gazer Special Deals

White House Lodge is ideally located for star gazing due its location on the island – no other properties are visible, so no lights to cause light pollution. In fact the only artificial lights you will ever see are the occasional jet liner and the Hyskeir lighthouse near the Small Isles.

January, February and March are ideal for star gazing on the Isle of Coll. Darkness falls anytime from 5 pm all the way through until 8 am. Cloud cover varies throughout the year, but traditionally there has been good star gazing conditions during this period.

We've Got Boards!

Just in - we've got two 8 foot surfboards and two adult boogie boards.

The Osprey Foamie 8 foot surf boards are perfect for beginners. Each board has an Expanded Polysterene (EPS) Core which makes it incredibly durable, along with a 4 string core which runs the entire length of the board to give it superb strength.

Coll's 23 beaches offer the perfect opportunity to take up surfing or get some practice.

The boards are in the garage all ready for guest use.
