Holiday rentals with beach access in Stornoway

This is a fabulous place, and once we found it, we enjoyed every minute. The staff is helpful and made us feel welcome. The rooms are large, and staying in a castle is pretty special. My only complaint is that the description of where the unit is located is very misleading. We were told the apartment is "ON the Lews Castle grounds", which are over 600 acres. For travelers like us, completely unfamiliar with the castle, that's very confusing, and an accurate description would be more helpful and enticing. The unit is IN Lews Castle. And it's great!

The annex is a beautiful place to stay. Joanne has thought of absolutely everything to make this a wonderful home from home on the Island. It is finished to a very high standard but still comfy and cosy with lovely furnishings. Lots of extra touches like charging points by the bedside, generous bathroom and well equipped kitchen. Information about local walks and very near a great beach. Very dog friendly too.

Our host Christina was fantastic. She helped us check in with our luggage and was really friendly and knowledgeable. Loved staying in the castle. We are definitely coming back next year.

We thoroughly enjoyed our apartment at Lews Castle. It’s spacious and well appointed, very very nice and high end. The grounds are beautiful and the location is VERY close to the town of Stornoway! Thank you!!!!!

Lews Castle was the perfect place to stay on the Isle of Lewis! The apartment unit was pristine and the General Manager stayed for our late arrival. The grounds surrounding the castle are walkable and beautiful. It is an easy walk to downtown Stornaway. This is a place we will come back to. I highly recommend this accommodation for your visit to Lewis! You won’t be disappointed!

Even though the photos in the listing didn't match the place where we stayed, the apartment was beautiful, spacious, and fully-equipped. Sleeping inside a real castle was truly a unique experience. The city of Stornoway was easily accessible on foot, and the host was always responsive and available.

We absolutely loved the flat. It is so spacious, with the bedrooms to one side of the stairs and the living area down a hall on the other side. There is everything you could possibly need in the kitchen, plus a large box of toiletries in the main bathroom. There’s also a superb utility room complete with clothes hanging racks. We’ll definitely be back!

Staying in a real castle, albeit built 180 years ago, is always a unique experience but when the interior is super modern with contemporary comfort and all conveniences, what's not to love. Lots of space, great views of the harbour, and a quiet park location. The final bit to our particular apartment was via a spiral stair case, but the staff were there when we arrived to help with luggage.

5 Crulivig is situated in the most idyllic of locations - nestled beside serene Loch Barraglom, surrounded by the wonderfully wild colour pallette of ochres, slate blues & hazey purples of the surrounding moorland. Together with all the animal wildlife, it makes 5 Crulivig an absolutely stunning place to be! The cottage itself is very well appointed, immaculately clean and delightfully cozy - just the ticket! Both John & Dolina were very friendly, generous and always on hand to answer any queries. All in all, 5 Crulivig is a fabulous spot from where to go on to explore the rest of the wonderful Western Isles.

Clean, spacious, warm and quiet home on a quiet residential road. The property overlooks a loch joining the sea and is great for calm and quiet. Mac was very responsive and we had no problems. We loved the space and it was a well equipped kitchen which is not always a given. WiFi was great if you need it and the heating etc was all straightforward and effective. Lovely having two bathrooms too. Near various historic sites. And also pretty beaches (20-30 mins drive), and a lovely play park if you have kids near Eoropie Beach.

A beautiful little place in the peaceful setting of Port Ness. Chris was very helpful with detailed instructions so finding the place, getting in and figuring out heating etc was super easy. The house is spotless, well decorated, quiet and comfortable - all you can ask for. Walking distance to Eoropie beach and about 40 minutes drive from Stornoway, which adds to the quiet experience. Highly recommended and would stay again

Ideal for us attending a wedding in Carloway Free Church and reception in Breasclete Community Centre. House was spotless and well equipped. Very generous welcome basket which included a wee gift for baby in our party so thank you for your thoughtfulness and a lovely stay.

Host was fantastic and the communication was great! Thanks for hosting!

What a superb property for exploring the island! Great location — the property was exactly as described, and the photos don't do it justice. Gillian was very responsive and accommodating of our requests!

Wonderful location, right on a beautiful sandy beach. The cottage was really nice with everything we needed. It was a great base to explore Lewis and Harris. As someone who likes to watch birds, there was lots of activity in the area. There are sea eagles in the area, I saw them flying above the cottage 6 out of the 7 days we were there.

It was a perfect place to stay for exploring the isle of Lewis. The views of the surrounding area was beautiful, it was central to where we wanted to explore and it was a shot walk to a local beach. We loved are stay here and would definitely go back
