Glenuig Inn

Glenuig Inn

10/10 Excellent
"This was the sweetest little inn! We stayed three nights and had a great stay. Very clean and well stocked. The dinners were the best! Loved the food and the beers and bar. The staff were very kind, accommodating our change in arrival time and letting us get in for dinner just before the kitchen closed after a long day at Skye. Definitely recommend staying."

Anneth Glamping Pod

Anneth Glamping Pod

10/10 Excellent
"The Anneth Glamping pod is a cozy hut set at a diagonal to a private home close to the Armadale ferry port and Armadale Castle and Gardens. Despite being next to the owner’s home, it is very private as the opening faces a beautiful ocean and hill view. The owner, Colin, is very responsive and helpful but respected our privacy completely. The hut itself is organized very well with a cozy bed, two comfortable armchairs, a modern television and small table. The kitchenette is sufficient with a hot plate, microwave and kettle. The shower is large and comfortable. The little hut wastes no space but on sunny days there is an attached deck with seating and the spectacular views. We found it comfortable for two people but it is not especially spacious. Down the road a short walk is Cafe 1925, with delicious food on from Thursday - Sunday. A few steps beyond is an inn with a cozy pub and a nice dining room. It is close to Armadale Castle and Gardens which is worth a visit as the gardens are lovely, the ruins of the castle are interesting but the Museum of the Isles is the highlights with tons of information on the history of Scotland and the Isles. There is also a nice cafe there. Anneth Glamping pod was a great place to spend our first two days on Skye. It is a good value and the “vibe” is so nice, largely due to the owner’s care given to the design and his friendly welcome. The view is also something quite special."
