We stayed at the White Heather for two nights as a base from which to explore Skye. It was a delight! Gillian, one of the owners, could not have been more friendly, helpful, and generous with information and assistance. The rooms are simple and comfortable; the food is excellent. The location - right on the harbor in Kyleakin - is... More

My wife and I pulled into Kyleakin at noon, four hours before check-in time. We just wanted to stop by and say hello and get some directions but did not expect to check-in. Yet, it was no big deal. Gillian, who runs the hotel with her husband, said the room was ready and showed us right up. She was friendly... More

We stayed for two nights and found the whole experience to be very good. Nothing was too much trouble here! I think it's a great idea to have breakfast "a la carte" and the standard was particularly high. Everything has been thought out with facilities for almost everything: computer room, washing facilities, small kitchen, two lounges, etc.

Gillian was absolutely fantastic. Upon checking in she gave us the rundown of the house. The breakfast room has a beautiful room of the harbor, the rooms are clean and comfortable, there are two seperate sitting rooms for enjoying company and even a small kitchen with a washer and dryer which is nice if you packed light. Saucy Mary's is... More

Gillian made us so welcome in this spotless B&B. Comfy room with nice shower. Flat screen TV. Home cooked breakfast and great recommendations for restaurants close by. Ample parking spaces. Cosy, comfortable and lovely harbour view.

This was a really lovely B&B located in the Kyleakin harbour, a short bus ride from the train station in Kyle of Lochalsh where we arrived. The host, Gillian, was incredibly friendly and helpful in making sure we enjoyed our stay and was happy to make calls for us to book a taxi a meal or a tour. She had... More

Wonderful B&B. Stayed here for 2 nights - comfortable room with 2 lounges also available. Great range of amenities. Excellent home cooked breakfast and Gillian the host made every effort to make us feel completely at home. Good advice on local restaurants and booked a meal for us. Lovely view of the harbour. Recommend to anyone and would certainly return.

Booked just day before we arrived as we were looking for an overnight stay on the way to a family gathering that we thought we might not make. The lady of the house was very helpful to my husband on the telephone. When we arrived we had a lovely surprise: warm, cosy surroundings - two guest lounges and tons of... More

Didnt use either of the lounges but did have a look and they are perfect for chilling with our without kids. The breakfast was generous, better than your average b & b - crockery was... More
