    This was a lovely clean and convenient place to stay. It is right on the sea front a couple of hundred meters from the ferry to Ullapool. If you arrive in to Stornaway late of have an early ferry to Ullapool then this place is really convenient....

Twenty Seven is situated on the sea front, it will take you just 10 minutes to walk to the ferry terminal and bus station. Opposite the bus station is the art centre and cinema, which also has a fantastic food and drink venue. Highly recommend!
Close to the newly renovated castle has a beautiful tearoom and museum. Beautiful grounds to walk with various short or longer routes to walk
