This was a unique place to stay and we enjoyed the surroundings. The host was very responsive to my phone call when I had trouble locating check-in information. I later realized that it had been emailed to me that same day, but I hadn't seen it due to driving most of the day. There were good recommendations for restaurants and in-room breakfast options (yogurt, oatmeal, milk, cereal, etc) were available in the room, which we appreciated. We stayed in the garden house and while it was an older building, the facilities were more than adequate, and we enjoyed the setting.

I’m pretty low maintenance, this was a nice spot to tuck into for the evening while travelling through Scotland. Everything was deadly although the shower didn’t seem to have much pressure running hot but I assumed it was for energy conservation.

Guest house is located very close to the Bridge and offers a nice view… There is an indian restaurant close by. There is co-op store as well where you can literally get everything you need for a comfortable stay :)

The Guest House is an unassuming place. At first glance it doesn't look like much, but the rooms are cozy and nice. It's self check-in/check-out, but there is a lobby/lounge area and one of the few places we stayed that had a microwave if you are in need. The rooms were stocked with nice breakfast items and heated bathrooms. We did stay in the off season, so dining was unfortunately limited around the area as most places were only open part of the week or closed early. Overall, a nice place tucked in Isle and easily driveable to plenty of locations.

On arrival unable to get in as had not been given the code or room number.number on the door did not correspond with the number we had to ring.Rang twice before anyone answered Unable to use the shower as we had no hot water.rang numerous times and also emailed with no answer.Again emailed and rang in the morning with finally being answered and told to turn the middle nob to the left.Finally got some hot water but with the water just trickling.weve travelled all the way from London,and this was the worst service we,d got.we booked by email and when we arrived and saw the outside we were very dissappointed.when we pay for a room here in scotland,and as were from Australia the cost of the room is double.your service at answering your phone and email messages were very poor.

Was a nice place. Didn’t really like that we never saw any staff. Felt a bit empty. Had issues with electricity and although management resolved once we messaged them, we were a bit uncertain what to do. Happened in the middle of the night and waited until morning to contact them. Just our preference i guess cold feeling. Room was quite small and window was extremely difficult to open.

Beautiful property hidden behind tall hedges, with a nice variety of birds in the garden. The parking is ample, the bed is comfortable and clean, snacks are provided. However on the isle be warned that you must make all your dinner reservations in advance. This year is tough for restaurant staff capacity and we could not find seating for two in two villages nearby.

The rooms were spacious and clean. (Bathroom was huge!) Location is fantastic and very convenient. Check-in is contactless as indicated, however if you book through hotels.com you will not receive the email with the entry and room information as needed(they send the email to hotels.com instead) You will need to call the owners to get the information. This proved to be a problem for us as we did not have an international calling plan, thankfully another guest saw us struggling in the parking lot and was able to assist us. I would still recommend this guest house to those looking to stay on the Isle of Skye.

The check-in is fully virtual, making the experience a little impersonal. The layout of the place is weird and not welcoming. The rooms are fine but you can hear your neighbors very well. Location is so-so. Not worth the price.

Truth in Advertising, Not.
Virtually all of my rentals during this trip were charged a few days before arrival, except this one. Although half of the total was due at booking, three months before arrival, the full amount was charged at that time. When I questioned that charge, it was suggested that I was misinformed. I was misinformed by the advertising and by my booking receipt from Hotels.com.

I’m not one to complain, but… zero extra for what you pay. Minimal amenities, food, beverage. Zero staff on site, this is total self service. And worst of all, there seemed to be some type of leaking pipe upstairs that required a pump to fire up every 2 or thre minutes 24/7. The room would buzz from it, thought it was a drill at first. Got 3 hours of sleep. Charging a lot and cutting corners. Could be great, pick another place.

Charming, comfortable and spacious. It was a great place to stay at. Check-in was easy, communication prior to our stay was very informative and once there, everything is well marked. The location is convenient, right at the entrance of the Isle of Skye and there are restaurants within walking distance.

Excellent location at entrance to Island. This was spotlessly clean. Hosts were thoughtful and ensure small details such as snacks were available. Excellent wifi. If tours of the island are not pre-booked a vehicle rental is suggested for touring Skye.
