Perched on the hillside over looking the little village and the water, the Byre is adorable. The hosts are very nice and helpful. The room is small, perfect for two, tight for three (our party). Breakfast was great. It feels very remote but has all the creature comforts you could ask for. The hiking and sights are spectacular. We only... More

We stayed here one night at the westernmost point of a three-day circuit of Skye. The accommodations are beautiful - a little doll's house of a room with a cozy double-bed alcove, eating area with table and chairs and small sitting area, complete with books and literature about Skye and beautiful view south, and well-appointed bathroom with tub and hand-shower....

We had a fantastic stay, it was cosy, comfortable and the home cooked food was amazingly good. The area is very beautiful and near to Neist Point lighthouse which you must visit. Di and Julian were really welcoming and helpful to us and our nervous little dog. I hope we can go back again soon.

this place is a true gem - a cosy place in the middle of a beautiful valley. Not big but truly wonderful - the room, the view and the breakfast were all really good, as well as Julian's and Diane's hospitality. Would definitely go back if I'm on the island again!

The place is cozy with a beautiful view & wonderful hosts. The breakfast was delicous! We stayed 2 nights at the Byre. They have a little library of books about Skye & movies about the UK. It is very remote, which made it romantic & easy to step away from life. Very close to Neist Point. We weren't sure if... More

If you want a remote location away from almost everything this is the area for you and The Byre is in the middle of it. The room is very cozy. the pictures just don't cover it.

Our own self contained living/dining room with a bedroom alcove and bathroom. Quaint, charming and comfortable. Di and Julian were friendly and welcoming and breakfast and dinner were excellent. Take wine. Would like to have stayed another night. Remote and beautiful and one of the most interesting places we have stayed.

The self-contained nature of the Byre, along with an excellent breakfast and low cost make this a great-value B&B on Skye. It's very small so more than a day or so would have you stir-crazy, but it's excellent for a quick visit.

While small, we thought this was a great value focused B&B which was self contained as a guest. You are the only guests there with your own entrance so there was no worry of bothering others. The owners were friendly and nice as well and cooked up a very tasty breakfast. Would definitely stay again- though recognize for a long... More

What a unique little place - a cosy room thats more than your average B&B room with a comfy leather sofa, dining table and chairs, TV/DVD player and fabulous views out over the glen - even on a miserable day. Nice fresh flowers and frwsh milk for our tea - nice little touches. We found it to be very charming... More
