  • Chris Ryan on Behalf of 52 Lewis and Harris Businesses – 3 April 2008
    Submission from Chris Ryan on behalf of 52 Lewis and Harris businesses – 3 April 2008 Dear Sir/Madam 7-DAY FERRY SERVICES TO LEWIS & HARRIS The undersigned businesses, all based in the Western Isles, request that Sunday ferry services to Lewis & Harris should be introduced in the summer of 2008. This will be a necessary and long overdue development with the potential to improve the islands’ tourism industry in line with the Scottish Governments’ target of a 50% increase in tourism revenues. The proposed introduction of RET fares from October 2008 is also likely to result in increased demand and additional capacity will be needed to cope with peak season demand, particularly at weekends. However, our view as businesses is that Sunday services must be phased-in ahead of RET and that they should certainly be in place for summer 2008. Apart from the immediate boost for the local economy, this would give accommodation providers and tourism related businesses an indication of the response to weekend services and allow for business planning for the summer of 2009, which is the Year of Homecoming. Quite apart from the many social benefits, Sunday ferry services will make a major difference to the local economy by extending the tourist season, enabling businesses to work more efficiently and spreading visitor benefits throughout the islands. As a specific example, the Hebridean Celtic Festival, held in July, attracts over 15,000 people and contributes over £1m to the local economy. A Sunday ferry service would mean that many visitors to the festival would stay an extra night, enjoy all 4 –days of the festival and see more of the islands.

PREFACE Since ever dwellers on the Continent were first able to navigate the ocean, the isles of Great Britain and Ireland must have been objects which excited their supreme interest. To this we owe in part the com- ing of our own early ancestors to these isles. But while we have histories which inform us of the several historic invasions, they all seem to me to belittle far too much the influence of the Norse Invasions in particular. This error I would fain correct, so far as regards Celtic Scotland.

  • Roag's End Cottage, Offers Over 2 Park, Carloway, Isle of Lewis £185,000
    Roag's End Cottage, Offers Over 2 Park, Carloway, Isle of Lewis £185,000 • Fully renovated and re- styled • Spectacular interior • Two bedrooms • Excellent tourist location Roag’s End Cottage, 2 Park, Carloway, HS2 9AH A beautifully restored crofter’s cottage with two bedrooms specifically designed as a holiday home in an excellent setting for attracting tourism. When, in 2011, the present owners passed by and saw the traditional two-up, two-down cottage for sale but in a parlous state, their hearts went out and they knew they had to save it. The house was structurally sound and what they saw made it clear to them that they should restore it to its rightful, attractive and homely origins but in keeping with 21st century energy efficiency. The owners have removed the upper floor and created a gallery bedroom, allowing light to flood into the ground floor. Exposed beams provide character, as does an original, exposed, stone wall. The home has been insulated throughout to modern standards. The results are spectacular. What from the outside looks like your grandmother’s cottage, white washed and with the traditional crofter’s cottage appearance, on the inside is modern, spacious and light filled. The skillful and artistic use of materials such as local stone for the fireplace, elm wood from the local sawmill for shelving, a recycled Belfast sink, door lintels from the timber of a ship found on a beach in Uig and recycled timber for doors throughout are simply a pleasure to behold. Located in Carloway, the cottage is close to many of the island’s tourist attractions such as the internationally renowned Callanish Stones, Carloway Broch, Gearrannan Blackhouse Village, Shawbost Norse Mill and the unsurpassed beaches of Dal Mor and Dal Beag.
