About this house rental
About this space
‘Mo Eilean’ is a beautifully restored traditional Victorian stone house that provides our guests with a home away from home and an ideal base for exploring the island. It is set in a quiet, yet central street of Stornoway, the main town of the Western Isles. With only a 5 minute walk into the center of Stornoway, our tranquil harbor, Lews Castle, shops, restaurants, cinema, and sports center are on your doorstep. Arrival points of ferry port and airport are also only 5-10 minutes from our house.
The space
Everything in this house has been lovingly chosen to create a space which offers a charming marriage of old and new, traditional and modern. Where possible, we preserved and exposed special features like the original stone wall in the loft living room, the old wooden flooring, and formerly hidden fireplaces. Two modern wood burners add to the cosines of the living and dining spaces, while the spacious bathroom invites you to relax in a luxurious spa bath.
If you are not out exploring our unique island landscape with its breathtaking beaches, lochs, and coastline, your holiday home is furnished with ample home entertainment such as Amazon & Netflix TV, a Blu-Ray player with a wide selection of DVDs, high-quality Naim & Cambridge HiFi sound systems, PS4, free fibre broadband, a great selection of books, games, jigsaws as well as a laptop docking station, monitor, and printer for any work requirements.
For families with young children, we provide a cot, high-chair, car seat, and booster seat, pram, as well as a safety gate for our stairs.
On a sunny day, you can enjoy your own private patio garden equipped with a table, seating and a Weber barbecue. This space is also ideal to hang and store any leisure/sports equipment for surfing, biking or other water sport activities.
In terms of location, geographically Stornoway is the perfect base for exploring Lewis and Harris with all parts of the islands within easy reach by car.
Guest access
'Mo Eilean' is a fully equipped semi-detached self-catering house with your own front and back door access. You have parking right in front and the side of the house and a patio garden for your exclusive use.
Other things to note
During this COVID-19 pandemic, please know that we have undergone a thorough risk assessment and are adhering to Airbnb and our government's guidelines and enhanced cleaning protocol. You will find your holiday home fully cleaned and sanitised on arrival and you can check-in using our key lock box. You will also find ample cleaning supplies in the house allowing you to clean during your stay as you wish.
Please note that in our island community the Lord's day is observed on a Sunday. This means that the majority of public amenities will be closed. We have prepared more detailed information on which amenities will be open for your convenience on Sundays in our 'Welcome' folder available to you on arrival.
