We loved our stay at No 4 Old Post Office. This super cute home in a very tiny and quiet village has a well equipped kitchen and a separate family room with an electric fireplace on the main floor. Upstairs, there are two large bedrooms: one with a very comfortable King bed and the other with two twin beds. The bathroom is upstairs and has a large glass shower.
My daughter loved the playground with a zip line that was just steps away. We loved the sound of a babbling brook across from the property.
We ate at the Edinbane Inn for one evening (delicious and great service). Unfortunately, the Edinbane Lodge (Michelin graded) was not open the days were were there. We ate at the Old School House in Dunvegan on another night. Please be aware that all restaurants will need advance reservations.
For our three days on the Isle of Skye, this location was an excellent home base. We did The Quiriang hike (amazing, and took us 3 hours) and The Old Man of Storr hike (too foggy to see much the day we went). We also loved roaming around the Fairy Glen. We also did a boating trip out of Portree and got to see dolphins, two seal colonies, and eagles. We had planned to go to the Fairy Pools hike, but locals we spoke to in Portree said that the hike wasn't worth it.
