Perfect location for Isle of Lewis and Harris
5 / 5
This Riverview Cottage was the perfect home away from home for my best friend and I as we explored The Isle of Lewis and Harris. It was centrally located so it was perfect for going North, South and then back to Stornoway to explore and catch the ferry back to Ullapool. Ann and Angus were laid back and helpful. Angus checked in on us the first morning and shared information about the area and property.
What we wish we would have known: You need to have a car to get around from this location so do not depend on taxis or tours--Arnold Clark was wonderful and helpful. When you drive from Stornoway to Callanish do NOT take the Pendleton road that your rental GPS tells you to take. Turn around! Gordon is wonderful at the Callanish Visitor Center. Callanish II and III were not accessible without muck boots when we were there. Buy groceries at Aldi's or Tesco in Inverness BEFORE you get to the island so you have food at the cottage. If you drink coffee; bring it OR go to the Callanish Visitor Center for a cup of coffee. Stay here! The kitchen, bathroom, and muck room are all updated and new, the sitting room perfect for hanging out and the sheep adorable!
