The cottage is in a quiet location with excellent views. We stayed in the twin room which provided plenty of storage and comfy beds.

The Uig Hotel, where we had breakfast is nearby. The food is good and the staff very friendly. There are a number of tourist attractions north of Uig worth a visit but we were particularly impressed with the dinosaur museum near Staffin and its history.

Would Recommend: Yes

Lovely place: comfortable, clean, warm, beautiful view! The facility has everything needed. Breakfast at the hotel is a luxurious addition to an already lovely place

The last stretch of road to the facility is in terrible condition . Don’t think it’s up to the management to fix it of course, but it is indeed terrible.

The Old Pier Cottage is in an excellent location with the most amazing views overlooking Uig. The room was nicely furnished, clean and spacious, and had a lovely bathroom with a great shower. There is a nice area outside to sit and relax and watch the sunset over the harbour. It was also nice to have a small fridge in the room. The hosts are fantastic, friendly and very hospitable. The included breakfast has a great variety of hot and continental options, and the staff are friendly, helpful and happy to provide help and guidance.

The B&B is close to local shops and the Uig Hotel, where breakfast and dinner is available. It’s also a great location to watch the sunset. Make sure to just take some time and relax at the B&B as the location is just beautiful and the sites from the garden area are amazing. Most location attractions and sites are within 30-60 mins in a loop north or south.Places such as the Fairy Glens, Duntulm Castle, An Corran, Kilt Rock, Dunvegan Castle, and Fairy Pools is just bit further in time. It makes it easy to plan day trips. Lots of places to just go for a casual stroll.

Thank you for an amazing stay! We loved our cottage room and were so excited on arrival. Beautiful views of the sea, which we loved waking up to and coming back to. Amazing place to come back to after an active day out. Breakfast at the hotel was fantastic, smoked salmon and eggs the best I’ve had. Staff were all super friendly, especially a dark haired guy (I never asked the name of badly), who gave us tips each day. Would 110% stay again and recommend to friends!

Circular walk round the Quiraing, took us 3 hours and even thought it pelted with rain, it was lovely. Taliskier distillery and bay. Skye brewery for beers. Get a tasty pizza from Pizza in the Skye, need to book.

Would Recommend: Yes

20th August 2024:

We really enjoyed our stay at Old Pier Cottage, it was quiet and peaceful with a stunning view and everything you need just around the corner. We booked breakfast at Uig Hotel which was very good. The location is perfect to go on trips in nature and to see the beauty of the Isle of Skye.

Uig Hotel has excellent breakfast and dinner. Portree - really nice town to do a little shopping. We went to Neist Point at sunset and have been to The Old School for dinner which was very good as well. We would definitely recommend a walk to the Quiraing. Everything on the Isle of Skye is just so beautiful, you cannot make any mistake.

Would Recommend: Yes

6th August 2024:

We loved to stay at the old pier cottage. The room had a fantastic view and everything was so comfortable. Also the breakfast was delicious and the service always kind. We also ate ones at the restaurant in the Uig Hotel, we can also recommend to have dinner there. Thank you for everything!

2nd August 2024:

Great view and location for exploring the island. Breakfast was delicious. We ate dinner at hotel twice and food was excellent! Venison and sea trout especially! Room 2 at cottage did have a bit or an earwig issue. We killed about 10-20 each day usually in evening in the bathroom mostly.

Attractions are very busy in summer. We found going earl or after 5 was better.

Very clean and comfortable room. Bathroom was clean and water pressure was great. View from our room was spectacular. Parking is easy and breakfast at the hotel was a short walk.

Would Recommend: Yes

6th July 2024:

The cottage is perfect if you need 2 rooms as it has an additional lounge. It also has amazing views both sides. It is very convenient for the ferry. The local shop is walking distance and has vegan products. The cottage is owned by the same family as Uig hotel and Uig lodge, so easy to book a complimentary breakfast or dine in the restaurant. Food is fantastic- especially the salad. If you only need one room, the Hotel is also a great choice. Should you need 2 rooms, the lodge has 2 connected rooms.

This place is in a beautiful location. Views are unparalleled. The owner own the hotel as well and this is where you eat. I had the best breakfast ever and our evening meals were superb. Staff were all clean, respectful and friendly. I met the chef and told him I wanted to kidnap him and take him back to Florida with us!! He refused!!! Seriously. This is a beautiful place to stay.

You cannot do better than the bar and restaurant called the Uig Hotel

Would Recommend: Yes

Beautifully situated right on the bay. The room was very comfortable, clean and quiet. The Uig Hotel had a great selection of breakfast items, made to order. We also enjoyed our dinners there. Would definitely recommend to stay here.

Would Recommend: Yes

2nd October 2023:

Old Pier Cottages provided such a beautiful, warm, and welcoming space for my husband and I on our trip to Skye. Uig is beyond beautiful. Everywhere you look it's like a movie. The accomodations Billy & Anne have here is top notch. We had a fabulous stay and we look forward to coming back! Beds are so comfortable! Room is spacious with all the amenities you'd need. Not to mention the view... it's incredible. Can't recommend Uig and Old Pier Cottages enough! It's a MUST SEE!

Since restaurants book quickly we suggest contacting Uig hotel prior to arrival to secure a spot. Portree was close enough for us to go into town and fill up on any supplies we needed for the days we spent sightseeing. You need at least 2 full days to experience this magical place.

Would Recommend: Yes

2nd October 2023:

Large, well equipped, spotlessly equipped room in a great setting overlooking the harbour. Easy to find with directions provided. Contact-less check in, but breakfast is at the Uig Hotel, with lots of options and great staff.

Enjoy Skye - it's a great place to visit. While the Old Man of Stohr would bo on most people's to do list, don't miss the Quiraing Lookout. If you want to dine at the Uig Hotel, make sure you book.

Would Recommend: Yes

23rd September 2023:

We loved our stay. Superb view, quiet, clean, enough space. Small things to improve the life of travelers: add a hook in the bathroom, a support for soap and shampoo in the shower, a support near the sink, a second armchair in the bedroom.

The food at the Uig hotel is outstanding.

Would Recommend: Yes

16th September 2023:

Great view overlooking the bay, comfortable room and a short walk up to the hotel for the best breakfast ever. Highly recommended.

Book in advance for meals as there aren’t too many places to eat in the area and it gets full. Highly recommend seeing The Fairy Glen, The Quiraing, Old Man of Storr and the Fairy Pools although there is a lot of walking involved to see them properly. We also used the Skye Ferry, the only original turntable ferry left, it was quite expensive at £18 for a single but worth it as it’s nice to keep these things going and a bit different. The drive to and from the ferry was amazing!

Would Recommend: Yes

15th September 2023:

Excellent location and room. Fitting, decoration of a high standard. Tie up with the Uig Hotel works well. Nice view from room.

24th July 2023:

We enjoyed it very much. Lovely big room and bathroom. Loved the bath tile. Great view of the sea. Pity there is not a short cut to walk up the hill to the hotel.

Quiraing was great. Unfortunately didn’t see everything we wanted to. Mountain rescue was great after I broke my foot. We want to come back.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Old Pier Cottage. We loved the quiet location at the water's edge and watching the ferry arriving and departing. The fridge was very useful for keeping drinks cold. Would also recommend the Uig Hotel for breakfast and dinner, but in wet weather you would want to travel up in a car. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

Book everything early as Skye is very busy. The drive around the top of the peninsula is well worth doing and if a keen walker a climb up to Man of Storr is recommended. The scenery is beautiful. Enjoyed a trip to Dunvegan Castle and the lovely gardens.

Would Recommend: Yes

25th June 2023:

We found Old Pier Cottage in immaculate condition, and very comfortable to boot. While the breakfast arrangement at UIg Hotel is unusual. it was in fact quite convenient in our case OPC is excellent value, and we would not hesitate to re-book, or to recommend it to friends going that way.

W had rented a cottage locally fro 9th - 16th June, and took advantage of Uig Hotel for casual drinks and for evening meals. We were treated vet well by the various staff members, and enjoyed our visits. It is very obvious that Bill & Anne have adopted a policy of courteous staff, comfortable facilities and good food at acceptable prices. WE would recommend Uig Hotel both for casual dining, but we would be certain that bedroom facilities would be more than acceptable. Neil & Marian Andrew

Would Recommend: Yes

21st June 2023:

Very nice room with a sea view. Super clean, spacious, quiet and easy to park. Bobbie and Anne were wonderful host (and their dog Rosie too). In addition, we ran into car problems and Bobbie was very helpful in trying to help us. In recap, our best accommodation of our trip ;much nicer than Best Western in Inverness, caledonian in Fort William and Apex Grassmarket. Easy to check in and check out.

Would Recommend: Yes

12th June 2023:

Our stay at the cottage was excellent and to have a very good dinner at The Uig Hotel was marvellous. Billy went to great lengths to help us out. Calmac had done what they’re prone to and cancelled all ferries from Mallaig-Lochboisdale. That meant a very late switch to the Uig-Lochmaddy ferry and we had no overnight accommodation before the following day’s early sailing (we were driving 450 miles from our home in the Yorkshire Dales). Our ‘rescue’ accommodation couldn’t have been better and we had a lovely breakfast at the hotel before catching the ferrry in the morning.

Would Recommend: Yes

Very nice location.

Would Recommend: Yes

8th June 2023:

Absolutely a gem of a place, in a quiet pocket of one of the most beautiful places on earth. We had hoped to stay at the Uig Hotel up the road, and despaired when they were booked. But thrilled to realize that Old Pier Cottage B&B is under the same ownership, right down the road, and had availability for our nights. Overjoyed! The waterfront location is so serene and peaceful. This was one of our favorite stays we've ever had in all our travels. Thank you.

The Uig hotel restaurant will kindly arrange both breakfast (included!) and do their best to accommodate dinner reservations for you when you're staying at the 'sister' cottages, even with late notice. Eat there every chance you get. The dinner was utterly spectacular each night. Can't say enough about the quality of the food, the service, and the setting.

Would Recommend: Yes

23rd September 2022:

Absolutely superb. Beautifully clean cottage with a fabulous location. Walk/drive to hotel for breakfast and dinner was quirky and the food and staff there made it all worthwhile. If there could be one inprovement then think about a wardrobe or hanging facilities. Not a problem for us for two nights but could be challenging for longer stays.

Enjoy!!!!

Would Recommend: Yes

4th September 2022:

Super cottage with great view. Room was smart and clean. Anne and Billy were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast at the Uig Hotel was excellent and we also had dinner there several nights. The food was very good and service was excellent. The hotel staff were also friendly and helpful.

Our favourite things were the scenery and the wildlife. We did three wonderful boat trips, the seal trip from Dunvegan Castle, the SkyeXplorer trip from Uig Pier (dolphins, porpoises, sea eagles (from a distance). whales (very briefly)) and Stardust trip from Portree (dolphins, sea eagles (pretty close)). Scenery-wise we most enjoyed The Quiraing, The Old Man of Storr and the Cuillin Hills. (We think we saw Golden Eagles at the Fairy Pools). Best meals we had were at the Uig Hotel and Dulse and Brose (Portree). Also recommend coffee, cake and admiring the view at the Cuillin Hills Hotel (Portree). Also go somewhere dark and look at the stars!

Would Recommend: Yes

30th August 2022:

Old Pier Cottage was our favorite stop in our trip through Scotland. The view from the cottage is absolutely beautiful and you are so close to all of the best hikes in the Isle of Sky. We also were able to go to the Uig Hotel for free breakfast (the owner of the cottage also owns the Uig Hotel) and went there for dinner which was the best dining experience in the Isle of Sky. Lastly and most importantly, our host is such a kind, personable, and hospitable person who made the experience very unique (added bonus of seeing his two beautiful dogs roam around the property with him and you can say hi to them if you're a dog person).

Great place to stay -good sized room and bathroom. We didn’t use the lounge area but may have done if we stayed longer than 2 nights. Good breakfast and evening meal at the hotel. Would definitely recommend to others and we will be back.

Fairy Glen is a great place to visit, the car park is free after 8pm and the whole place is a lot quieter then. If you're planning on visiting the Old Man of Storr recommend you arrive early -was very busy as we returned to the car after our visit around lunch time.

We had so many wonderful experiences in Uig. Uig Hotel breakfast/dinner was superb. The Fairy glen- a quick walk away - was stunning. Would recommend the Old man of Storr hike as well!

Would Recommend: Yes

29th July 2022:

Beautiful guest house right on Uig Bay. Large modern room with all the amenities and private car park right outside door. Meals are easily accessible and taken at Uig Hotel right up the road. It was a little warm in our room the first nught but was easily accommodated by the standing floor fan the hosts popped in our room. My only suggestion for the property would be to install shower dispensers with shampoo and body wash instead of the individual dispensers in floor of shower which were difficult to reach and did not pump/dispense easily. All in all we thoroughly loved Old Pier Cottage and its tranquility away from the madness of Portree.

Would Recommend: Yes

29th July 2022:

Fantastic B & B. Clean, comfortable room and bathroom. Bed very comfortable and beautiful views. Lovely and quiet and owners very friendly and helpful. Breakfast at the Uig Hotel was excellent. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again if in the area.

Dinner at the Uig Hotel was fabulous and staff amazing. Fairy Glen and the local waterfalls worth seeing. If you are taking the ferry to Lewis and Harris make sure you check it is running. We had it booked and Calmac did not advise us there was a problem. Fortunately a member of staff at the hotel did and we found we could not travel as planned and we had to cancel our trip to the island and make other arrangements.

We absolutely loved everything about our stay at Old Pier Cottage. I would like to offer constructive criticism but just keep doing what you are already doing. If anything, I would only suggest changing the photos on Hotels.com as I don't think they do the rooms justice as they are even better in real life.

The Ferry Inn was a great craic but all of the pubs/hotels locally provided great service. If you are going to eat locally in Uig though, book early! The Ferry Inn had a three week waiting list!

Would Recommend: Yes

24th June 2022:

What a magical spot! Loved my walk in Uig Wooda! Can’t wait to return!!!!

Bring a picnic dinner and just sit and enjoy! That’s what we did and it was perfect. We collected bread, cheese, smoked fish, pies, puddings, and drinks on our stops!

Would Recommend: Yes

11th June 2022:

We very much liked the cottage. One tiny point, it would be useful to have a little shelf in the shower for soap and shower gel etc.

The single track road from the Talisker distillery through Glen Brittle is very scenic and leads ultimately to the Cuillins and an excellent cafe at the end of the road.

Lovely B&B in a beautiful spot. Room was really nicely decorated and spotless. A suggestion would be to have some coathooks in the room (or in the shared lounge area) as there wasn't an obvious place to hang up wet coats.

We drove out to Neist Point, which is well worth the trip.

Beautiful, peaceful location with amazing view of the sea. Our room was very clean and comfortable with everything we could want. The breakfast was cooked to order and delicious. Made for a fabulous way to start our day touring the beautiful aisle of Skye. The hotel staff were friendly, helpful and went beyond expectations to help us enjoy our stay. Would definitely recommend this lovely B&B.

We enjoyed several wonderful meals at the Uig Hotel. Galley cafe down the road from the hotel was also good. Be sure to visit Fairy Glen which is only a few miles from Old Pier Cottage.

Cottage in a beautiful setting overlooking the ferry port and sea area, breakfast was supplied as part of the deal with the cottage up at the Uig hotel. We had dinner also on both nights at the hotel, which was also great, the cottage itself was clean and had a fridge with a freezer element in it. Nice big bathroom and storage area for luggage and clothes

Fabulous modern property in an unpparalled location a short walk to the co-owned and lovely Uig hotel. Super friendly hosts who are on hand for your every need. Wonderful complimentary breakfasts at the Uig hotel are a lovely touch.

After sampling the breakfasts you will definately be looking forward to dinner at the hotel - certainly 5 stars. Fabulous walks can be had at the Quarring, Old Man of Storr, the Fairy Glen and in and around Staffin. Would certainly book ahead for dinner reservations during these times - Covid etc.

Linked to the Uig hotel. Nice big room in cottage by the seashore. Very reasonably priced . Excellent facilities. Very friendly owner. Had delicious breakfast & dinner at the Uig hotel ( 15 min walk). Loved it so much we stayed an extra night !

Uig v picturesque. We only ate at the Uig hotel& the meals & bar there were both fab. Very friendly & knowledgable staff. Fairy glen close by was lovely - a must see. Hoped to see sea otters from the cottage but no luck this time- maybe next time ?! Our joint favourite hotel in our 2 week trip round the NC500 & Skye. Highly recommended.

We are fortunate enough to have travelled extensively and eaten at some renowned restaurants. We found Old Pier Cottage and the services of Uig Hotel a combination of the best of them all rolled into one. The location takes your breath away and the welcome from Billy was an added bonus. The room surpassed expectations. The view is amazing but the photos and description of the inside do not do it justice. It was perfect. Billy is an exceptional host; friendly, helpful and extremely generous. We’re glad we scribbled down his tips for the area which kept us away from the masses. Every one of his staff we encountered followed his lead. We ate at the hotel every night and we were impressed with everything we ate. Top notch breakfast aswell. Overall we cannot fault Old Pier Cottage and would return at any given opportunity.

Mr Harley was extremely helpful when he waited up to greet us personally especially when the ferry was an hour late arriving at 11.30pm. The instructions he gave me were very clear on how to arrive at the cottage and let ourselves in but for two weary travellers who had been hanging around all day on Uist waiting for the ferry it was very welcome release. The breakfast was very good with excellent poached eggs the whites cooked and the yolks runny.

One of my favorite stays during my week holiday! The place was incredible- the room was cozy, the bed was super comfortable and the views left me speechless. They even accommodated my friends and I with a late dinner reservation at the Ugi hotel when we couldn’t find anything available last minute due to covid and poor planning on our part- the meal ended up being one of our favorites from the trip! Thank you so much for a magical stay! Would definitely recommend this spot to anyone!!

Old Pier Cottage is simply a delight! The bedrooms and en-suite bathrooms were very clean, well equipped and comfortable. The welcome was warm and friendly. The only drawback, is that it is an uphill walk to the Hotel for dinner! We took the car and walked back! Highly recommended, we hope to visit and stay again one day.

Covid-19 has affected many attractions on Skye this year, the distillery for example, but not the beautiful and spectacular scenery! Just visit and soak up the peace, tranquillity and beauty.

Absolutely gorgeous! So clean, fresh, and quiet. Excellent view from the room. Breakfast and dinner at Uig Hotel was delicious, filling, and really well priced. They also had great vegetarian options. I completely enjoyed my stay and would recommend this to anyone who stays in Skye.

Location is very close to the Fairy Glen and the Quaraing if you're planning to see either.

Our room was excellent - very clean, comfortable and quiet. TV and fridge and private modern shower room. Bedroom overlooked beautiful small bay where Calmac ferries run to the islands. Owners friendly and helpful. A great place to stay!

Meal possibilities in immediate area quite limited re choice during this Covid period, but meals always available at Uig Hotel nearby - Old Pier Cottage has an 'arrangement' with them - you won't go hungry, but make sure you book. There is a small shop within easy walking distance for snacks and treats! Great place if you believe in fairies (we do!) - Fairy Glen is nearby (walking distance) and the Fairy Pools about an hour's drive - both well worth a visit! Plenty to see if you love the countryside.

Excellent stay. Loved the location of the cottage and the hotel. Staff at the hotel were all excellent and enthusiastic. Food was also excellent for dinner; especially desert. Good varied menu. We also enjoyed the Isle of Skye brewery beers and popped back for drinks for the second night. We were impressed with the Covid adjustments too and thought the hotel didn’t lose too much atmosphere in comparison to other places.

Incredibly lovely and helpful! Amazing location with a stunning view, super clean with great hospitality. Couldn't recommend more

Uig hotel has great food and lovely staff (recommend the strognoff). Quiraing trail - be prepared but lovely walk. Kilt rock, fairy glen, fairy pools (loads of midge repelant), swim in rha waterfall. Walk around Portree fish and chips are great especially by the harbour). Tour around talisker brewery as well!

Would Recommend: Yes

The Cottage itself was immaculate and the views from the bedroom were stunning overlooking the harbour.Beautiful,pristine bathroom.It also has the added advantage of being linked to the Uig Hotel a few hundred yards away.

There may be a few cafe's nearby but we only ever used the Hotel.The food was awesome.Wonderful breakfast and delicious dinners all very reasonably priced.But what made it for me was the wonderful staff who couldn't do enough for you.In this present Covid situation the main thing is hygiene and they went above and beyond,constantly cleaning and sanitizing all safety in place

Uig is excellent location for either catching the ferry to the Hebrides or touring Skye. Breakfast served at Uig Hotel which is 10-15 minutes walk (£5 excellent value for cooked and continental breakfast). Evening meals also served there - good choice.

Absolutely stunned at the view. Was sincerely giddy when I picked up the keys. Huge room, comfy bed, beautiful yard, and breath taking one in a million views. Putting on my return list and telling all my friends.

So many places to hike to and just see from the roadside. Give yourself plenty of time to just soak it all in. Reservations for dinner in Portree and Uig are essential. Meringue and chantilly cream dessert at Uig hotel is to die for.
