The Details

No. 3 Sail Loft is the kind of place that quietly steals your heart. Set right on Stornoway’s historic inner harbour, this Grade A listed townhouse blends Hebridean heritage with a laidback atmosphere, wrapping you in warmth, comfort and ever-changing sea views from the moment you arrive. Watch fishing boats drift past, spot yachts coming and going and feel the rhythm of island life slow you down.

Spread across three beautifully designed floors, the Sail Loft sleeps four across two generous bedrooms. On the ground floor, a thoughtfully equipped kitchen invites lazy breakfasts and relaxed suppers, made even better by a complimentary welcome hamper filled with local treats. There’s a sleek bathroom here too, complete with a spacious shower, heated towel rail and underfloor heating that feels especially indulgent after a blustery coastal walk.

Up on the first floor, the sitting room is all about comfort and character. Sink into the large, inviting sofa, light the fire and lose an afternoon to books, board games or a classic film from the carefully curated collection. The views stretch across the harbour towards Lews Castle, a scene you’ll never tire of. Also on this floor is a calm and cosy double bedroom with built-in storage and the same wonderful outlook.

The top floor is a real retreat. This loft-style bedroom features a king size bed and French windows opening onto views over the Castle Grounds, flooding the space with light. The ensuite bathroom is perfect for unwinding, with a full length bath, separate shower, heated towel rail and skylight that brings in the ever-changing island sky.

Step outside and you’re right in the heart of Stornoway, with cafes, restaurants and shops just moments away. From here, the wild beauty of Lewis and Harris is yours to explore, from vast white sand beaches and dramatic clifftops to ancient standing stones and endless walking routes. Whatever the weather, the Hebrides always deliver something unforgettable.
