Bousd

Scotland

Bousd occupies a windswept corner of Coll in the Inner Hebrides, reached by ferry from Oban followed by single-track island roads. The settlement clusters near Coll's western shore alongside neighbouring villages like Sorisdale, connected by the island's modest road network. One public EV charger serves local needs, though the twice-weekly ferry crossing demands careful planning. The name derives from Gaelic "bus," meaning dwelling place, perfectly describing the stone cottages built to withstand centuries of Atlantic gales.
