Friendly welcome, decent breakfast, clean room.and shared bathroom, good parking. Good view from dining room and a short walk into town. A minor point was that there was nothing on which to dry hands in the bathroom.

Not an enjoyable stay!

Not an enjoyable visit. Only stayed 45 minutes before deciding to leave. Room was very dated. Needs a complete makeover from the wooden floor to the ceiling. Bathroom (shared) dated back to the 70's. No pre warning of the "big£ dogs the owner delighted in telling us about, in a menacing way. All in all, would not go back and would never recommend to anyone else. I value my friends too much!

Very peaceful, but a bit outdated now.

Stay was perfectly pleasant, clean and comfy bed. Jim as the owner was really helpful and responsive. It would be fair to say that the guest house was a bit outdated and also fair to include the fact that bathroom is not en suite. Not a problem, in fact, but might be a surprise to some.

unangenehmer Geruch im ganzen Haus, Türen und Betten knarrten stark. Schlafzimmer Fenster ließ sich nur 5 cm öffnen. Gemeinschaftsbad und Toilette auf dem Flur. Hellhörig. Man hörte die Gespräche der Nachbargäste im Zimmer.

A wonderful place, I highly recommend!

A fantastic place with extremely nice and helpful hosts. I have enjoyed my stay and the breakfast and will be staying there if I am in Stornoway again. I enjoyed it much more than a hotel I have been to earlier
