Central location so easy to visit all areas of Lewis and Harris. Helpful personnel, good to help community operation. Spotlessly clean. Will return.

Good to visit during quieter months as less traffic, easier parking at vistas and beaches. Winter light and weather best for photography.

We had a very nice stay in your hostel, feeling like at home. David had been very nice, and had even invited us to a community land festival. Unfortunately, we had to take our ferry back Ullapool. We hope we will be back in the future and sure we will think about you for our stay. Thanks a lot.

We liked very much the standing stones at Callanish, the Butt of Lewis, the port of Ness, the Blackhouses village, the tower of the Iron age, all the white sand beaches…Stornoway…we would have liked staying longer to visit much more.

We felt really well at Ravenspoint. Everything is clean, the kitchen makes you feel like you are in a real home. We also liked the idea that it is run by the community. Our only regret is that we wish we had spent more time in the café, and the hostel when the staff was around ! Thank you to all the staff from thé hostel, Shop and museum !

The bus stops in front of the hostel ! It is worth planning a day or more to walk in the area !
