Much of the city and surrounding area is steeped in history, cultural landmarks, modern attractions and festivals.
There is something to appeal to all visitors taking a flight to Stornoway, although the area will have a greater appeal to those with a love of Scottish scenery, history, and cultural festivals. Arnoal Blackhouse is an outdoor museum and authentic look into the early settlement of the Isle. The impressive late middle ages Lews Castle is open to visitors, and also includes an art gallery.
The large harbour area has plenty of local seafood restaurants and bars, and there are plenty of local and family owned businesses in the surrounding streets which cannot be found anywhere else. Stornoway promises to offer many unique experiences and a small town atmosphere which is a welcome change to many visitors from the metropolitan areas.
Getting around Stornoway
The city, and the rest of the Isle, is quite small, so is possible to reach many of the points of interest by foot. There are small taxi firms available, as well as a local shuttle bus service to get to some of the more out of the way attractions.
Getting from the Airport to the City
The closest airport serving flights to Stornoway is Inverness Airport (INV), however it will be necessary to travel by ferry to the Isle of Lewis. If taking a ferry from Inverness, the trip will take several hours, however a City Link bus to Skye, and then a ferry, will take approximately the same amount of time.
