Lovely B&B. Hosts are very helpful. Rooms are nice, clean, and spacious. Not far from restaurants and COOP. Breakfast was 5 stars. Cash only, but worth it.

We stayed two nights in September and we loved our time here. Cara is such a caring and gracious host. The room was spotless and cozy, breakfasts were delicious, and we loved sitting in the living room in the evenings for a quiet night in. I would absolutely stay here again.

Can't say enough about our stay at Pipers Lodge. Cara is the most gracious and accommodating host you could ask for with a genuine, warm and caring vibe. We loved our clean comfortable room, the awesome front lounge where we had good times chatting or playing games, the fantastic continental breakfast in the dining room. Cara and her wonderful family were a highlight of our trip! Great location to explore Skye.

This is place to stay! Cara and Niall are most welcoming. It feels like you came home. They make an effort to learn all their guests names and to assure your comfort. The continental breakfast is the best I have ever had, and the rooms clean, beautiful and cozy. I only wish we had stayed longer. Our last day was my birthday and received a card from Cara and Niall...how sweet is that? Made my day the best. Thank you!

My wife and I got the pleasure to stay here for a couple nights on our highland adventure. Cara and Neil were fabulous and some of the nicest people we have ever met. My wife and I could have stayed here a week! The rooms are great, spacious and clean. The breakfast hits all the right things you need before a day of adventuring.

This B&B serves a continental breakfast buffet style. I bought beer at the supermarket, and I was impressed by the kindness of Sarah, the host, who took the initiative to store it in the refrigerator. When I got home and was unpacking, I unintentionally found the opener I had borrowed in the plastic bag. I don't know if you see the review, but I'm sorry.
