Stornoway

Stornoway is the main town of western Isle and the capital of Lewis and Harris, Scotland. It is the largest town in the outer hebrides, as well as the third largest town after Kirkwall in Orkney and Lerwick in Shetland. The ferry to and from Ullapool takes 2 hours and 45 minutes. The town is easy to walk around, a coop and tesco supermarket just walking distance. Harbour kitchen serves good food but you need to have your reservation, their fried whitebait is nice and crispy, it is situated just opposite the town hall.
