Really helpful staff made us feel welcome almost like being at home

Friendly and helpful staff in very new premises. Great breakfast.

Book ahead if wishing to dine in Portree which was very busy due to 20221 staycation.

Would Recommend: Yes

30th August 2021:

We loved our stay with you. The accommodation was faultless.

My only advice would be to book evening meals in advance. Maybe Covid related but we did struggle with availability. We enjoyed the Old Man of Storr and Fairy Pools. We did a day trip to Raasay which we loved. Highlight was seeing a pod of dolphins from the ferry!

Would Recommend: Yes

We had a wonderful stay at Taigh Duitseach. It’s a perfect location for walking in to Portree town and the property was immaculately clean and fresh. Jim and Pauline were excellent hosts who were chatty and gave advice as to what to do when in Skye. We were particularly pleased with the breakfast selection as there were lots of gluten free options for our son who is coeliac and both Jim and Pauline were fully up to speed on cross contamination requirements etc which put our minds at ease (generally we didn’t find Skye to be particularly accommodating with GF options).

We found Dunvegan castle, the fairly pools and the fairly glen good to do with 4 year olds. Would suggest midgie repellent and even a face net for the fairy pools as the midgies were particularly bad up there. Relish deli in Portree town was good for GF options. Book boat trips in advance as they are popular and difficult to get tickets.

Would Recommend: Yes

26th August 2021:

It is quite and good location. Family Room is spacious. Overall it was good stay. Thanks for everything.

Location is 10 minutes from main Market so arrange your dinner in advance. Rooms are quite and clean. I liked the staff and breakfast there.

Would Recommend: Yes

Jim and Paulline are very great hosts. We had a really pleasant stay, everything was really clean. The breakfast was really good. Just the bed was a little bit to small (1,40 m) but we came along for 2 nights. Thanks for the very nice stay.

Would Recommend: Yes

18th August 2021:

Very accomodating hosts. We checked in at midnightdue to train delays at Fort William,but Jim made check in very smooth for us, excellent breakfast, the rug in lounge had some sticky bits on it, that may be left by previous guests??..but is easily correctable and not a big issue, I mention it so that jim knows about it and his otherwise spotless property is better appreciated by future guests,

Most tourist attractions are easily accessible and as described on other sites. we were bit disappointed by coral beach near Dungevan castle. It is fabulous family walk but do not expect it to be anything like conventional beach, you can go their after 1mile walk from terrible car park only to walk back after chilling fo sometime. No shops or food anywhere in vicinity,

Would Recommend: Yes

16th August 2021:

Jim and Pauline were lovely hosts - they made us feel welcome and were very helpful and accommodating! Their knowledge of the area was great as they gave us tips and advice on how to plan our day to see as many sights as possible!!! Family room was spotless, comfortable and had loads of extras (iron, hairdryer, toothbrushes and toothpaste, cotton buds, etc)! Would definitely recommend!

The isles Inn in Portree was delicious

Would Recommend: Yes

8th August 2021:

31st July 2021:

The property is located near centre of town, just 10 minutes away from restaurants and harbour. The room was excellent, I was absolutely thrilled by the cleanliness and the view… was just breathtaking. The food was absolutely delicious with a variety of choices and combinations to pick from and the hosts did a great job at delivering their own part for this experience. I cannot wait to return!

Good places to visit while you are there can be Dunvegan Castle , the Fairy Pools and Talisker Distillery.

Would Recommend: Yes

Would Recommend: Yes

21st July 2021:

Lovely place, spotlessly clean and comfortable and a short walk from amenities in Portree. Jim and Pauline were easy to get hold of and very helpful. Lots of parking space too. During Covid times the breakfast is a basic selection of continental bits and fresh juice to have in the room, which did us well enough. I would highly recommend staying.

Would Recommend: Yes

We had a wonderful stay at this accommodation and would stay there again. The room was very spacious and the staff were lovely.

Would Recommend: Yes

The accommodation is technically top class but it lacks the human element including hosting and communal areas. There is no information pack in the room as in quality Airb&b.

Beautiful room and immaculately clean. Lovely breakfast, don’t agree with others comments on breakfast this host is providing a great service given pandemic and on and island where possibly less options to provide. But we found plenty in breakfast basket to enjoy. Only tiny comment to make was only 1 hand towel. We had to ask for clean towels and toilet paper day 3. But no big deal.

Definitely recommend to stay here, gorgeous quiet rooms. Beautifully decorated, brand new.

22nd May 2021:

We loved our stay at Taigh Duitseach and Portree. Location was great with only reason not a 5 was the slight traffic noise at night. Breakfast was great given it was a continental with plenty choice/options. The room was very clean and spacious and made it a very comfortable stay. In terms of contact with hosts, apart from on arrival where we given the keys, we never had the opportunity to speak to them, even on departure however there was little need to apart from when we were leaving.

Portree a fabulous base to stay on Skye if you are exploring the island and the amenities within the town made it a fabulous stay with some superb restaurants. We did indulge ourselves by going to the Scorrybreac for an evening meal and I have to say the quality of the food served was worth every penny. Absolutely outstanding and would highly recommend it.

This was an excellent B&B, the room was clean with a high standard of furniture. The bathroom was very clean and well appointed plenty of hot water soap and shower gel all supplied. The breakfast tray delivered to our room was well stocked and ample for the day ahead. This was well suited to travel around the whole island to see the sites.

These are a number of excellent restaurants within walking distance in Portree that are worth a visit during your stay.

3rd September 2020:

What can I say. What a beautiful place to stay. The house was very modern and absolutely spotless. The breakfast was second to none and Pauline kindly packaged it for our trip home. Nothing was a problem. What lovely hosts too, Jim and Pauline were such lovely people. The only downside for us is that we didn’t stay longer. We will definitely be back but for a longer time.

A trip to the fairy pools is a definite. Jim kindly recommended the Portree hotel for a meal and it was amazing but I would highly recommend booking a table in advance due to current circumstances

Would Recommend: Yes

2nd September 2020:

This looks like a new build property and is in great condition. In a convenient location within a short walk of the harbour and town square. Very friendly welcome. Great first nights sleep but second night was disturbed by noisy neighbours in adjacent room. Running a shower at 2am?? Breakfast was a generous continental style served to your front door. Very enjoyable.

Great base for touring the island but Portree itself was looking a bit neglected, particularly the harbour area. That was disappointing. Had a great meal in the Tongadale Hotel. Fish and chips by the harbour were also good.

We were really pleased with the accommodation and if we return to Skye would be very happy to book the same accommodation.

The town centre is no more than a 10 minute walk from the accommodation. We didn't book any restaurants in advance and realised we should have. I imagine with some restaurants closed due to Covid-19, this has put those that are open under more pressure. The Isles Inn came to our rescue both nights and the staff were lovely and food good value. The town has 2 banks, a small co-op, chemist and everything you would need to buy while on holiday. Portree is a great base for exploring a very beautiful island.

Had a very enjoyable stay at short notice, owners very friendly and informative of local facilities. Room and facilities absolutely spotless and clean.

Plan to return whenever on the island.

A beautiful, new-built property, close to the town centre. Public rooms and bedrooms were very modern and tastefully decorated. The room was spacious and attention was paid to every need. There were spare toiletries provided, coffe, tea, a coffe machine and biscuits were available in the bedroom. The owner, Pauline, was extremely friendly and helpful. The buffet was extensive and Pauline was on hand to meet you every need.
