Cookie : did you do the sand heart? :D

The Butt of Lewis is about as far north as you can go in the Western Isles. Standing at the north tip of the Isle of Lewis, it achieves a mention in the Guinness Book of Records for being the windiest place in the UK. Look West from here and there's nothing between you and North America: look north and it's open ocean all the way to the Arctic.

I was lucky enough to fly over Ness on Thursday in good weather. Took a couple of photos as attached. One or two of the same places as yours but from above.

Regards
