Loch Erisort Hotel (Stornoway, United Kingdom)

About Loch Erisort Hotel

Loch Erisort Hotel is based at the centre of Lewis and Harris, the perfect base from which to visit all the Lewis and Harris beauty spots and historical monuments. You would be forgiven to imagine that you can see all that these islands have to offer in just a few days, however, we have learnt from our many visitors around the world, that everything on the island takes a lot longer than you think! The picturesque views lined with lochs, wildlife and traditional crofts, along with rolling hills and winding roads, require a much slower pace to navigate with care and it's always good to allow plenty of time to stop for photographs and reflect on the outstanding natural beauty of the surrounding landscapes. If you have time to visit for a few days, the Loch Erisort Hotel is a perfect place to start off your day with a warm welcome and a hearty breakfast, then to come back for a long soak in the bath and a home made evening meal, served with a smile, locally crafted beers and of course the Harris distillery's latest offerings. ABOUT US Loch Erisort Hotel is our family business. We took over ownership in the autumn 2022 with support from the local community. Surrounded by traditional croft land and with views over Loch Erisort, the hotel offers a peaceful and tranquil setting, with minimal light and noise pollution, ensuring a relaxing stay and is ideally situated for exploring all that the island has to offer. Sea Eagles have been seen here from May this year and as they are nesting nearby, they can make guest appearances at both breakfast and evening meal times. The North facing rooms have amazing views of the Loch Erisort, the town of Balallan and surrounding traditional croft land, including lazy beds and black houses. The South facing rooms at the front look over the Eishken hills where stags and herds of deer are often spotted in the mornings & evenings.
