Recently renovated, it is in the perfect position on the West Coast of the Island to visit such historical sites as the Callanish Standing Stones and the Carloway Broch. Also in the village are the world renowned Garenin Black Houses which give an indication as to how Islanders lived in days gone bye. There are two fantastic beaches (Dalmore and Dalbeg) within 5 minutes drive and some stunning inland and coastal walks accessible from the property. There are many trout lochs in the locality and Salmon fishing on the Carloway River (Permits available from Carloway Angling Club). Sea angling, beach fishing and pier fishing are also popular activities. The property has recently been refurbished with a new kitchen, bathroom, new wooden flooring and carpets throughout. There are 2 double bedrooms, one with a double bed the other with two singles. A third bedroom has bunk beds ideally suited for children. A cot is also available. There are fishing rods for use, beach furniture and numerous children's toys kept in the detached garage. Wi Fi is also available Guest access Guests will full access to all parts of the property with the exception of one locked cupboard in the bunk bedroom. Interaction with guests There will always be someone on hand to deal with any enquiries. A full list of things to do will be available in the house Other things to note When booking it is essential to check that if you are bringing a car that there is space on the ferry as in Summer they tend to be well booked. There is no shop or petrol station in Carloway. The closest are either at Barvas or Cameron Terrace/Leurbost where you can get a good selection of food, wines and spirits and both have petrol/diesel. They also carry a diverse range of other goods – from midge repellent. There are fishing rods for use, beach furniture and numerous children's toys kept in the detached garage. Wi Fi is also available and fishing gear to surf equipment (Barvas). In Stornoway there are two supermarkets – Tesco near the ferry terminal and the Coop on the way out of town toward the west side. The Doune Braes Hotel provides meals (best to book) and takeaway food. It has a bar and lounge. Forty North (Bragar) does the same but you need to pre-order takeaway and collect. Menus for both Doune Braes and Forty North are in the folder but may be subject to change. There is of course a wide selection of restaurants in Stornoway - An Lanntair has a top class chef in Kenny Mackay and Digby Chick is recommended. Don’t go past Cameron’s fish and chip shop without sampling! Getting around A car is essential Ferry: Most people travel to Lewis by sea using Caledonian McBrayne. They operate twice daily services from Ullapool to Stornoway, or alternatively they operate a shorter ferry crossing between Uig (Isle of Skye) and Tarbert (Harris). The Ferry fares are really competitive as opposed to flying and hiring a car. Carloway is about 24 miles from Stornoway, and about 45 miles from Tarbert. Follow signs for Càrlabhagh (Carloway) on the A858. Remember to look out for the Gaelic name on road signs. When you reach Carloway you pass over the only flyover in the Western Isles and turn hard left heading for the pier signposted Cidhe Càrlabhagh. Follow the road to the right and it is the last house on the right with a distinctive red garage door Flying: The only airport on the island is in Stornoway . Flybe operate daily flights to Stornoway from Inverness, Glasgow and Edinburgh. Eastern Airways operate flights, Monday to Friday, to Stornoway from Aberdeen. Car Hire: There are a number of car hire companies including Stornoway car hire, Lewis Car Rental and Isle of Harris car hire. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation -

It is the perfect place for rest and renewal in the beauty of the western isles, and also as a base for outdoor activities. ##### Ellie S.

Jun 5, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Peaceful Carloway haven Lithir is an individual 50's bungalow in, for us, a very good location, with the loch immediately over the very quiet road, and the only sounds those of the local birdlife. The accommodation was practical and comfortable, and having use of the garage was very helpful, as we hired a kayak during our stay. The outlook from the bungalow was very scenic, with excellent views from 3 of the rooms. The opening of the new Carloway community shop, only 2 minute's drive away, was a major convenience, as it saved driving back to Stornoway for many daily essentials. The store is extremely well stocked, and I would highly recommend its patronage. We fell in love with Lewis - the coastal scenery is stunning, and the wildlife exceptional - we had very good views of otters, both British eagles, a pod of 8 Orcas, Minke Whales and very much more. All in all, we had a lovely stay here, and are very eager to return. ##### Geoff H. Stayed 14 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Geoff H. May 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lithir - the perfect home from home This was our second holiday at this cosy, homely cottage. Mairi is so thoughtful - everything was provided, and there was also a lovely welcome pack on our arrival. Beds are very comfortable, and this location is incredibly quiet, so you are guaranteed a perfect night's sleep. The wildlife on Lewis is amazing - this year we actually watched Black-throated Divers courting on the loch whilst sat at the dining table, and then 3 Cuckoos in a chase around the trees in the front garden, plus Corncrakes calling at night. Amazing. This year we brought our kayaks, and I have to say that Lithir is about as good as it gets as a kayaking location. You can store your kayak in the garage on its trolley, just roll down the drive, then the slipway is about 30 metres along the road. You can then explore the inner loch if the weather's dodgy, otherwise paddle out beyond Carloway harbour and the world's your oyster. Also worth a mention is the local Carloway Community Shop and café. This is about 2 minutes away and provides pretty much everything you'll need, with very friendly and helpful staff, and saving you driving back to Stornoway for a groceries top-up. All in all, if you want Hebridean hospitality in the best location for exploring Lewis, come to Lithir. ##### Geoff H. Stayed 14 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah H.

The instructions that were sent prior to arriving were very detailed. Being an older house and next to the sea, it is very understandable that we could smell a lot of mold in the house. It was so strong it made both of us feel unwell. If you are susceptible to mold, I would contact the owner to see what remedy that have done. We did not contact the owner about the issue during our 3 night stay as we know there was nothing they could do to fix it. ##### Sarah L. Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kris G.

From the outset, communication with Mairi & Kenny was spot on. As soon as you enter the house, you can see it's well looked after & spotlessly clean. I found everything I needed in the lovely new kitchen. There was even an air fryer. There was a lovely welcome card, yummy nibbles and fresh flowers waiting for us. A nice touch. The bedrooms are a good size with plenty storage & hanging space for clothes. The beds are comfortable, the bedding soft, lovely soft bath towels and best of all, electric blankets! Carloway is well placed to tour the islands. The setting on the loch is stunning & the stars magical. I would, and have recommended to friends & family. We will definitely book again. Thanks Mairi & Kenny. ##### Fiona M.
