It's a small but cozy hotel. The staff was warm and welcoming. Even though we didn't get the water front room(which would have been awesome) the location was great.

Nice hotel.
Very comfortable updated room. We had a nice view from our window. They have a restaurant on site and had a great breakfast the following morning. After a long day of visiting the Isle of Skye it was a nice place to relax and unwind.
