About

Comunn Eachdraidh Nis offers a well earned pit stop for those travelling around Lewis. Our café offers a tasty choice of lunch options which use many locally made and produced ingredients. We have freshly made home baking each day along with choices for gluten free diners. Our gift shop awaits you, offering a wide selection of locally made products. If the Butt of Lewis Lighthouse is your final destination, why not visit our vast local history archive and read more on its history and its genealogical records. We also have an accredited museum with many local artefacts and information on days gone by in our area.

Guide Prices

Entry to the museum and exhibitions is free but we do welcome donations. There is a small charge for groups of ten or more.
