Our stay at Sconser Lodge was the lodging highlight of our recent 3-week trip to Ireland and the UK. The property is lovely, cozy, and has an amazing view. The family innkeeping team of Lisa and Craig along with Norrie were so kind and the service was exceptional. Craig is a fabulous chef and his son Alfie makes an amazing sticky toffee pudding! Our room was perfect for our two-night stay. Highly, highly recommend and we hope to come back for a longer stay!

Great location to be within Isle of Skye. Lake views right in front of the hotel is beautiful and peaceful. Dinner was the absolute standout of this place. Ingredients tasted fresh, special and very local. The drinks from ales, beers to whisky were very much needed at the end of a long hiking day.Friendly hosts and very inviting atmosphere in the lounge and dining hall. Place is full of character and truly a special one on Skye. Rooms are also clean, quiet and heated water also available readily.

Lovely bed and breakfast. Beautiful location and easy access to everything on Skye. In addition to serving breakfast, they have a restaurant with great food. Our ferry from Harris to Skye was late and when I called to let them know we'd be late, they reserved a spot at the restaurant for us so we wouldn't miss dinner. Very kind! Enjoyed the langostines. They also had a small bar if you wanted to buy a nightcap in the evening. Highly recommend.

Just went for dinner. If you want a real experience of Skye with the best food and hospitality on the island Sconser Lodge is the place to go. Craig, Lisa and Norrie will leave you with a memory of Skye you'll never forget. Can't recommend this hotel highly enough.

The Sconser Lodge on the Isle of Skye is set in a breathtaking, relaxing location. The decor is exactly what I had hoped for, the lodge is impeccably clean, and the food was delicious but that isn’t the best part about the lodge. …

Never ever felt more welcome! We are travelling around Scottland with our one year old. Altough I contact every single hotel upfront, we were not welcomed this way at all stops. The location is breath taking, so beautiful and peaceful. The room was clean and spacious, great beds. But the staff is next level kind! I cried the first night for the small gestures made to make our life as parents a bit more easy. And final the food, oh the food. Amazing! We had two nights here and is was the best time for us. Sky is a beautiful place and this was the best hotel for us to stay. Will keep this in my heart and never forget any of it. Thank you!!

Our favourite hotel on touring holiday of Scotland - real Scottish hospitality with friendly staff, comfy room with lovely views, ideal location to visit Skye, super food, relaxing stay, even a real log fire in July. cannot ask for more than that. Stay a bit longer than just a night or two to really appreciate it.

The Sconser Lodge is a special place, Craig and Lisa are wonderful hosts. We immediately felt at home arriving after a long journey. Our bed was comfortable, the room had high ceilings, a large window and nice bathroom. The grounds are beautiful and we often sat outside to enjoy the stunning views. The location was walkable to the Raasay ferry and a short drive to Portree/Talisker. WiFi was a bit spotty.I had no expectations for the food but it absolutely blew me away, we enjoyed two dinners here and never missed breakfast as we enjoyed it so much. They offer a nice wine list, whiskey & beer selection in their small pub room with very warm service. I’d love to return someday and would highly recommend choosing this Bed & Breakfast or stopping in for dinner (must book ahead)!

What a wonderful stay in this fantastic lodge. We stayed for one night as part of our NC500 trip, and it didn't disappoint, from the moment we arrived, the owners couldn't have been more attentive, from simple things like remembering your …
