I will be travelling between Orkney and the Isle of Lewis in May time. Once I have landed at Gill's Bay, I need to get over to Ullapool to get the last ferry to Stornoway.

The question is which is the best route to take in terms of seeing some good sites along the way and how long will it take by car as a minimum?

I have been told travelling between the two places can take quite some time and although I am hoping I have left plenty of time it would be a shame to miss out on something enroute but I also don't want to miss the ferry!

Depends how much time you have , it's a long drive .The coastal route is best for scenery but fewer monuments .
