The beautiful, uninhabited island of Vallay (Eilean Eilean Bhalaigh) sits off the north west cost of North Uist. It's also the setting for Vallay House, the one time residence of Erskine Beveridge who bought the island and built Vallay House, also known as Taigh Mor, in 1904. Whilst the house is now in ruins, it's still a landmark when looking across to the island of Vallay.
