The best conserved Broch in Scotland, definitely worth seeing as it's more than just ruins. Short walk up a hill and toilets in the visitor center.

Lots of interesting tombs and carvings inside the church and a few outside . It helped complete the cultural aspect of our trip to Harris . A few were very , unusual , shall we say , I'll let you look it up .

This is REALLY worth the walk from the car park - such a stunning sight when you get over that hill and see the two old huts! They're perfectly reconstructed like a little museum, you can go inside and admire the medieval tools, and there's an information folder as well that tells you all about them. The Norse mill and kiln were one of the MOST fascinating things we saw on the Isle of Lewis - and there's a lot of competition there; Callanish Stone Circle, Carloway Broch...

This site is closed for now. We’re working hard to gradually reopen the places you love while making sure the experience is safe for everyone. Gain a unique insight into island life at no. 42 Arnol. This traditional, fully furnished thatched house once sheltered a family and its animals under the same roof. The ruined blackhouse at no. 39 can also be seen, together with the 1920s ‘white house’ that replaced it. White houses – in which a wall separated byre and dwelling – replaced many blackhouses around this time. Gaelic-speaking members of staff are usually on hand to answer queries about the crofting life on Lewis. Smell the peat smoke – even today the fire at the heart of the blackhouse is never allowed to go out. Peek inside the cosy box-beds in the bedroom, still complete with their original fabrics and furnishings. See the byre just as it was left in 1966, only without the cows.
Beautifully restored traditional stone houses, lots of information and early Harris tweed looms in show. Loved it the best thing we visited on our holiday. Cracking location and we also had a nice scenic amble up the hillside which is full of wild flowers.

Dun Eistean is the traditional stronghold of the Morrisom Clan. The little island is easily reached (after a not so easy 3/4 mile walk) by means of a small walking bridge. The foundations of the original tower are clearly visible as are a few other features. The views from the Island are breathtaking. Not hard to imagine oneself back 1000 years.
