*****************Things to do**************** You can be exploring the North and West of Lewis with some of the best beaches in the world in less than an hour. Have a wander around the lighthouse at the Butt of Lewis, visit the jaw dropping sands of Uig, stroll through the Blackhouse village or visit the spectacular Callanish Standing Stones! Stornoway is a great place to explore. The working harbour is so picturesque with Lews Castle overlooking the water. There are 270 hectares of lush castle gardens and grounds to explore. For a wee shopping trip, there’s plenty of lovely local eateries and shops selling local gifts such as Harris Tweed. Explore Harris which makes up the south of the island, separated only by the hills of North Harris. Here’s where you’ll find many sights including the spectacular Luskentyre Beach and the Isle of Harris distillery or hop on a boat trip leaving from Tarbert or Leverburgh. Feeling more energetic? then take on some epic hill walking on An Clisham, the highest peak in the Outer Hebrides standing at 799m tall. There are lots of fantastic local walks if you fancy spending your days closer to home. Take the dog for a walk to visit the stunning Tiumpan lighthouse. Use the viewing platform to search for whales, dolphins and porpoises. This is an official sighting spot for the Whale and Dolphin Conservation group! Create memorable evenings as a family or couple lounging in the private wood fired hot tub. The hot tub is under cover so you can enjoy the steamy bubbles whatever the weather. Alternatively, spend rainy days or evenings in front of the huge log burner in the lounge watching Netflix, one of the many DVD’s or playing board games provided. Take the chance to experience the legendary Lewis summer sunsets and the beautiful Northern Lights in winter with some of the darkest night skies around. Once you fall in love with the Outer Hebrides it never leaves you! chì mi thu a dh’ aithghearr - Scots Gaelic for "See you soon.”
