Cozy Shepherd hut 20 by 7 feet with boxed in high double bed, hotel in Balmacara

Providing a garden, Cozy Shepherd hut 20 by 7 feet with boxed in high double bed provides accommodations in Balmacara. This property offers access to a patio, free private parking, and free Wifi.

The cabin itself is adorable!!! For such a small cabin it has the largest shower of our road-trip!! The towels are hand woven and are soooo soft! The kitchen is well stocked and the bed was very comfy. For me though, the star of the cabin is the private backyard. There is a deck with chairs or a picnic table. It was the perfect spot to hang out after a day of hiking. It’s Mountain Views everywhere in that yard!

Kyle Hotel ‘A Bespoke Hotel’, hotel in Balmacara

With traditional rooms and a cozy bar, this hotel offers free parking and fine dining. The Kyle Hotel is located in the Kyle of Lochalsh, the gateway to the Isle of Skye.

Our room was small but as you would expect in a quaint little hotel. It was very clean and comfortable. There is a bar on site and a restaurant which is where we ate. The morning breakfast is included in the room price and is a full Scottish breakfast bar; eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes, cooked tomatoes, baked beans, fruit,yogurt, croissants,coffee, juice...delicious! There was a bit of a wait but well worth it.

    Gorgeous farmhouse off the beaten path.

    Gorgeous farmhouse off the beaten path. It’s a bit of a drive from the city center, but that wasn’t an issue for me. I enjoy the peacefulness the countryside offers. The house is surrounded by nature. Including the cows and sheep that graze the land. The owner is friendly and accommodating. House is extremely clean and the breakfast was great. Highly recommend.

    Balmacara square has a cafe, deli and interiors/ gift shop...

    Balmacara square has a cafe, deli and interiors/ gift shop but in truth is not particularly exciting. Ashley distance away is the beach road with a Spar shop and a hotel/restaurant. Kyle of Lochalsh just 3 miles away had a small number of shops and cafes but it's not particularly exciting. Visit Plockton for good eating places and scenic views. Also visit the crofting village of Duirnish and see the highland cattle roaming freely throughout the village. We enjoyed the scenery and activities in the mainland more than on in Skye, which is busy and rather overrated. Portree, the capital was a particular let down. Try a trip to Glenelg. These is a cafe, pub and shop in the village. I'm route there stop at the viewpoint to see the Five Sisters.

    Location. Facilities, especially the easy to work radiators. Cleanliness. Sea breeze, so only midges once during the week. The fish & chip van that parked outside on Thursday, the food was fantastic. The well stocked local shop and nice hotel (though they would not take dinner bookings during our stay, we could only use the bar for a drink).

    The location is spectacular, the accommodation comfortable and wonderfully private. Extras, including supply of foodstuffs and toiletries gave this tiny cabin a hotel level of luxury.
