Scottish Island Adventures - South Uist - with host Coinneach Macleod, the Hebridean Baker and guest Kathleen MacInnes

South Uist 

South Uist is an island of two faces with lofty mountains to the east, and long stretches of sandy beaches to the west. Take yourself off on an adventure with challenging hikes or wander among the ruins of a 13th century church. South Uist is a real mix of history, culture, and unspoilt natural landscapes.
