Very cozy guest room in a quiet location. The owner is welcoming and an excellent cook. The breakfasts and dinners are very generous. Small paper bags are available to carry excess supplies while hiking. The owners also sell wool dyed by themselves with plants. The knitting made by the owner is superb. Hikes near the house or a few kilometers away. Excellent step

I can't say enough about how wonderful our stay at The Glenview was. We stayed 3 nights while on the Isle of Skye, and it was perfect. The owners are wonderful, the rooms are incredibly comfortable after a long day of hiking, a nice and hot shower, and the food from Simon is simply to die for. Their hospitality is fantastic. We stayed all over Ireland and Scotland and this was one of our best stays! We'll be back!

The BEST place to stay when you visit Isle of the Skye! The inn is so cute and our room was super cozy. The sweet owners made us bread, granola, and cookies (so delicious)! The location is perfect since it’s within 10 minutes from so many hikes and attractions. We could not have asked for a better stay!

I could not have been happier with my stay at The Glenview. The location is great for seeing some of the major sites of Skye, the rooms are so cozy, and the breakfasts are delicious. The owner was so genuine and kind, I came down with a cold my last night and she went above and beyond to help me. It felt like home in one of the most beautiful places on earth (but better and cozier)

I had this booked for me which is a good thing as I tend to run a mile if yoga or anything alternative like vegetarianism is mentioned. ||||We arrived mid afternoon to a warm and informative welcome. …
