> - I'm tempted now to try for Callanish as well! How long was the drive from there to Scrabster?
Boarded the 7am ferry at Lewis, got off the ferry at Ullapool about tenish. . arrived in Scrabster about 2.30. I thought it would take longer. . ended up hanging 'round Thurso for a few hours (which is a bit of a dump). Ullapool in a nice place though.. stopped at the Ferryboat Inn, cheap and right by the ferry. Had a nice time in Ullapool.
Lewis is sparse mate. . there's NOTHING there once out of Stornoway. I found one shop in Calanais, it was open 10-2!!! just a converted garage. The woman said it's the only shop for miles!!
By the way, the trip cost me £300 in ferry fares alone!
