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!

Beautiful and Comfortable Home
Enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home in the center of Stornoway. Couldn’t have asked for a better location and comfort! We appreciate the “edible goodies” that were provided for us upon arrival. Would definitely stay in this accommodation again if we ever travel back to the area.

Great accommodation and hosts
The hosts, Roddy and Catherine were great and left us milk, coffee, tea, a loaf, a bowl of fruit … essentially everything we needed after a very long and tiring trip from the USA. The only thing Roddy and Catherine couldn’t fix was the horrendous weather but we still had a wonderful time on Lewis & Harris with the best hosts ever so thank you

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.

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.

Host profile image
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.
