New Solar Panels on the Way!

You may have noticed that scaffolding has begun to grow outside An Lanntair this week! We are pleased to announce that there are 30 new solar panels on their way to the corner of South Beach and Kenneth Street, and will then be fitted to An Lanntair’s roof very soon! Long may the sun keep shining over sunny Stornoway!

NEW: Scones in the Cafe/Bar!

We’ve got three delicious new scone types for you to try out in An Lanntair! Plain, cheese and fruit flavours are now available, so make sure you come in for a treat! The question is – what goes on first, the cream or the jam?
