Things to do in Isle of Lewis, Scotland: The Best Art Galleries

September 19, 2021 Renato Branum

A visit to the Isle of Lewis is like stepping into the pages of a Scottish fairy tale. Everywhere you look, medieval structures remind you of the island’s remarkable history. The legendary Callanish Standing Stones poke up from the ground like a strange and massive stone city. The Blackhouse, the Shawbost Norse Mill and Kiln, and the Carloway Broch all offer insight into what life on Lewis used to look like. Cheerful Stornoway boasts a charming, colorful harbor and several lovely restaurants and pubs.

Gallery 5 is in the picturesque crofting village of Tolsta Chaolais on the Hebridean island of Lewis.

The location is stunning with views across Loch Roag to Bernera and the Uig hills,
