Also known as the Outer Hebrides (pronounced
heb-rih-deeze), the Western Isles*
form a 130-mile arc of over 500 islands off the northwestern coast of Scotland.
Lewis is the largest and most northerly of these islands, and
Stornoway, its capital, is your base. Its deep sheltered harbor is home
to the Ullapool ferry and the fishing boats that tie up at Cromwell
Street Quay and sell their catch at Tuesday and Thursday
evening markets. Places to visit include An Lanntair Art Gallery,
Museum nan Eilean, Lews Castle, and the Lewis Loom Centre, manufacturer of
Harris Tweed. You can also shop at
Celtic Clothing for kilts and
tweeds. Before leaving home, check out clothing by
Karen G Designs for the latest pastel
Harris Tweed fabrics, for babies and other softies.
Gaelic is the first language of many people in the islands.
For golfers, there is the
Stornoway Golf Club,
founded in 1890. |
