The perfect cottage, in the heart of Stornoway

A delightful three bedroom cottage in the heart of Stornoway. Beautifully renovated and a great place to unwind after a day exploring the Isle of Lewis. Close to great restaurants, shops and key attractions. Easy to book, check in and check out. Roddy was a delight and made it all too easy. Just wonderful!

We had a very nice stay. Roddy came over and helped us figure out all the power switches in the kitchen (and we dicovered the cool undercabinet lighting 😎). Lots of good appliances, pans and dishes for self-catering. Comfortable accommodations.

Perfect location, beautiful home

This renovated property was perfectly located in Stornoway and came with plenty of parking. Six of us (three couples) enjoyed our stay very much, We appreciated the owner stopping by to check in with us and to make sure we had everything we needed. He also provided us with some excellent restaurant suggestions. I highly recommend this lovely house.

We are Catherine and Roddy Afrin and we are the owners of The Townhouse in Stornoway. We have been in the hospitality trade for 35 years.

Why they chose this property

We think The Townhouse is special because we went to great efforts to upgrade it with the best materials, funishings and appliances to make it a home from home for our guests. It suits families with children over 5.

What makes this property unique

The Townhouse is pretty unique in being two minutes walk from the centre of Stornoway while still in a quiet street.
