Callanish Alpacas
Tourist attraction
ππ It is one of the best places to visit on Outer Hebrides. You could have an animal tour for free and you would see many different breeds of alpacas, chickens, ducks and so on. You could see peacocks as well! The owner is very friendly and knowledgeable, you could ask any questions about animals! Ther...

Callanish Stone Circle II
Historical landmark
ππ Beautiful place to visit. There are 3 sites of the standing stones with the most popular and impressive being number 1 near the visitor centre. A small walk back along the road you come to number 2 (fewest stones) and finally number 3. Definitely worth visiting all three sites. We went in Novembe...

Calanais Standing Stones & Visitor Centre
Visitor center
ππ Easy to park right by the stones and walk up. You can walk all around the stones which is good, and unlike some other similar attractions elsewhere. Quite impressive to see. We visited about half hour before sunset and was very quiet - did notice more people started to gather though as we were leavi...

Norse Mill and Kiln

ππ Access from the roadside car park is on a well prepared path, the site is not visible from the car park. Takes a few minutes to walk out to, a little gradient in places but well worth the short walk. Access to both renovated buildings is possible revealing their original purpose in this beautiful tr...

As soon as you step inside it's quiet & windproof & you can see how protected the people would have been inside. It's positioned on a hill so you can view all round & see whoever would be coming b...

Eilean Fraoich Camp Site
Campground
ππ We stayed 4 nights at this campsite. It is run by some lovely people so I really don't understand the bad reviews on here. It's a good base for exploring the island. Although the showers currently cost 50p for 4 minutes or others are Β£1.00 for 8 minutes, they are by far the best showers I've ever...

Doune Braes Hotel
Guest house
ππ The room was super cute, very charming, very clean. The bed was a little hard, even if you like a firm bed like me. But still a good stay.
If you want quiet and beautiful and empty spaces and rolling hills this is the place to be.
The staff and the owner really set this place apart, maybe some of th...
