We loved it. Loved the atmosphere, the location - beautiful setting on the edge of the loch but still easy to drive to Portree. All the staff were friendly and totally professional. The restaurant is lovely. Very good dinner and breakfast.

    “Room was wonderful and big. Bed was an American King size which is so hard to find in Europe. Dinner and breakfast were both great. Fly fishing right in the back of the hotel”

  • A great base for traveling around the Isle of Skye, with great walks right out the front door.

    “One of my favorite things was the walk along the River Snizort to the historic island cemetery. The view from our terrace at the end of the annex was enchanting. The breakfasts were amazing with generous portions and variety. With such welcoming staff, we would go back!”

  • Serene rust of afgelegen plek

    “The beds were very uncomfortable, and my wife was unable to sleep on the bed. The hotel clerk offered us sofa pillows to put on bed. It was not a satisfactory solution. We were forced to check out after one night.”

    “We absolutely loved our stay at Skeabost! The hotel is historic and beautiful. The staff is excellent and helped make our trip even better. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom clean as well as modern. Breakfast was delicious and we ate dinner one night at the hotel and had excellent food. You must have the coconut ice cream with chocolate three ways at least once! The bar is welcoming and the staff are genuinely interested in their guests. ”

  • Kind of nice but expensive

    “Stunning estate, with a stunning mansion overlooking a Loch. Unfortunately no real walking paths .. nothing around immediately…rooms are comfy but small. Restaurant attached is good but nothing exceptional. Value for money very arguable.”

    “I enjoyed strolling along the quiet shoreline. Dinner and breakfast at the restaurant were comfortable and pleasant. It was a memorable stay. The location was convenient for visiting the Old Man of Storr and Neist Point on the Isle of Skye.”
