A wonderful opportunity has arisen to purchase the
well-established and highly profitable Twenty Seven Bed & Breakfast
situated a short distance from the centre of Stornoway on the Isle
of Lewis. Tastefully refurbished and upgraded, the property is
exceptionally well maintained and presented throughout while the
contemporary interior benefits from substantial natural light
creating bright and comfortable spaces.
The guest house is offered in true walk in fashion and boasts 5
letting rooms. The town benefits from year-round trade from both
tourism and corporate visitors to the Island allowing the business
to take advantage of the demand for its services.
A modern wooden chalet provides excellent private owners
accommodation. The owners have also established a craft shop
selling a variety of local crafts, Harris tweed and gifts hand
crafted from whisky casks.
Twenty Seven is situated in a prominent location a short
distance from the centre of Stornoway with its many amenities
including excellent restaurants and shops. Located on the sea front
with views over the harbour the property is conveniently located
across from the island’s ferry port and local bus station.
Stornoway is the main town of the island, home to the Western
Isles Council with a population of just over 6,000 which accounts
for around a third of the islands inhabitants. The economy is a
mixture of traditional businesses such as fishing, Harris Tweed and
farming, with more recent influences like tourism, the oil industry
and commerce.
The Isle of Lewis is the most northerly of the group of islands
known as the Hebrides or Western Isles. Steeped in history and
culture the island boasts numerous sites of historical interest,
endless sandy beaches renowned with surfing enthusiasts and
countless lochs and lochans offering salmon and trout fishing.
Travelling to the island is by air or sea with daily ferry
services operating between the main land and the surrounding
islands. The airport which is located approx. 3 miles east of
Stornoway town centre, offers daily flights to Inverness, Aberdeen,
Glasgow and Edinburgh airports.
