Skye Bed & Breakfast Questions

When should I book a B&B?

Some of the more popular locations will book up months in advance, so leaving booking to the last minute is not a good idea, especially midsummer June to August. Book the B&B early to avoid disappointment.

Where on Skye should I book a B&B?

This is very much personal preference. As a guideline if you want a quiet holiday then choose a B&B that is in one of the quieter parts on the island such as: Ord, Sleat, Elgol, Staffin or Waternish.
For those that would like to be a bit closer to shops, restaurants and pubs then choose somewhere near the larger villages such as: Portree, Uig, Broadford, Dunvegan or Kyleakin.
