Little notes. Lasting Memories.

“We have had the most magical stay at Stones Throw. Thank you so much for thinking of all the little details. It means so much to travel somewhere and feel like you are at home. The whole island is incredible, we can’t wait to come back”

“We are absolutely in love with the cottage and the island. This is by far the best stay I have had in Scotland. The feeling here is warm, cosy and full of love. Perfect tranquillity, perfect in everything. We will be back.”

Memories made here

Words left by guests who made Stone’s Throw their home for a little while.

“At Stone’s Throw, the cottage met all our needs and more. The information pack was good. The beds were really comfortable. The whole cottage was a relaxed home from home. We loved all your little extra touches. My husband was up on Lewis for work so I tagged along. Chickens were dotting about the garden and the weather was lovely. So, I got comfortable on the garden chair to read my book. One friendly chicken came up and pecked at my toes. Later the same chicken knocked at the door for some attention. We have both experienced a lot of other establishments in Stornoway, but Stones Throw is at the top.

“We’ve loved this place so much. So close to the Stones. Clean, tidy and comfortable. The sun and moon came out on the last day over the Stones. Incredible experience. If we ever have the good fortune of coming back to Lewis, this is the only place we want to stay. Thank you for making it available.
