Stornoway is the main port on the Isle of Lewis and a popular gateway to the Outer Hebrides from the Scottish mainland. In fact, it has long been an important seaport and boasts excellent docking conditions thanks to the natural harbour’s sheltered location. The terminal building offers excellent facilities including a spacious waiting area with televisions and a cafeteria serving a wide range of refreshments. There is a bus stop situated outside the ferry terminal, while a taxi rank can be found a short walk away. As the primary settlement, Stornoway and its port are easily reachable from all locations on the Isle of Lewis and is served by the A857 from the north, the A858 from the west and the A859 from the south.
Blessed with one of the most spectacular natural harbours in Scotland, the town and port of Ullapool are situated in one of Britain's most unspoilt landscapes. Ullapool is the Scottish mainland’s primary gateway to Stornoway on the Isle of Harris, the largest town in the Outer Hebrides. The town of Ullapool sits just off the A835, so it’s within easy reach from Inverness. Also, a large number of bus routes stop right outside the terminal building. Stunning coastal walks are readily available in Ullapool, an area that many describe as an ‘outdoor paradise’.
