Inspector comments
"A truly impressive modern take on local heritage."
Overview
The Lewis Longhouse is a modern, 2-storey house located on an old family croft in Coll, just outside Stornoway. This 'home from home' was built in 2012 and offers luxury self-catering accommodation for up to 4 guests. 1 bedroom has an accessible en suite wet room and the other room has a private bathroom across the hallway. The bright, open-plan living area downstairs is complemented my a mezzanine lounge area upstairs featuring a velux surprise balcony. Guest needs are thoughtfully considered here, with plenty to occupy inside the house and a wraparound decking area outside, where the wonderful views can be enjoyed. Garden even has it's own boardwalk! Sustainability is a keen focus, with the Longhouse being the first home in the Western Isles to achieve a 'AA@ EPC rating.
