Had a fantastic stay on Skye here. It's a quiet part of the island with some hidden gems to visit. However please note that during our stay no breakfast was served anymore (we did get several notifications from the owner about it, so we knew that in advance).

We were very warmly welcomed by our hostess Julia. The rooms are spotless and fully equipped. You can have breakfast and dinner in the nearby hotel Ardvasar. The main highlights of Skye are an hour's drive away.

Wow, what an excellent little spot. The place is very close to the ferry and has a gorgeous view. Julia was an amazing host, extremely helpful while we were there and also with any questions I had before our arrival.The breakfast was amazing too (I'd recommend the scrambled eggs!).Even though the place is a bit far from Portree and some of the attractions I was most pleased with where we were. The point of sleat beach was my favourite bit of the island and that was really close by.Big thanks to Julia for making our stay so memorable.
