Great place just outside of portree (10min car drive), good links to rest of the island. Sam (Hostess) was very friendly. Rooms were clean and well kept with lots of complimentary items. Overall a fantastic place to stay when visiting skye will definitely come back on future visits.

Warm and welcoming

Moorside is warm and comfortable. Samantha was very welcoming and the carrot cake an unexpected bonus. Facilities were good and the family room a good size -better than many hotels.

Sam was a great host. The morning breakfast was thoughtful and the accommodation was clean. We didn’t have many interactions with our host because everything was handled so well that there was nothing we needed that wasn’t already provided.

A great Guest House close to town

Just a great weekend stay all round! Sam couldn't do enough for us, always helpful and kind. The entry/check-in and our room was well organized and very clean. The inroom continental breakfast was very nice with a large assortment of items. The evening carrot cake was unexpected and delicious. The twin beds were adequate and the comforters kept us warm. Thank you Sam. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Not near downtown Portree but…. it was so perfectly placed to literally everything in Skye! On top of it the owner, Sam, is hands down the best business owner. Every little detail she thought of to make my stay amazing.

It’s easy to self check in. Sam left goodies in the room for a nice continental breakfast. We had a fridge in the room so it was easy to pick up some yogurt etc for an easy breakfast. Very clean and quiet. Slightly outside Portree so you need a car but parking is included and you would need a car in this area anyway. Highly recommend!

There was carpet in the room and the bathroom was inconvenient based on what I am accustom to in the USA. It had 2 separete faucets for hot and cold. The shower was too small to wash in and the water pressure was very light. Having said that, it was a fairly good value for the cost which was quite low.

Wonderful breakfast box

The BnB was located in a quiet area, not far from Portree. Host was very kind and sent message in advance to inform re how crowded portree restaurants can be and advised to book in advance (i didn’t). The room is clean and simple. She also provided tea, coffee and some snacks in the room. Our bathroom, while dedicated for our use, is located right opp our room. It is a very big bathroom. Good toiletries were provided, the bathroom towels were luxurious (Egyptian cotton). 1 thing i really really like is the breakfast box. We took it away for our hike and had half of it as breakfast prior to our hike and the remaining as a snack for our hike. I can feel the thoughtfulness into the box and each day’s is different. Thank you very much for that.

Guest house situata a pochi minuti da Portree, può assolutamente essere il punto d’appoggio per visitare l’Isola di Skye. La nostra camera era molto pulita, sufficientemente grande, con tutti i servizi basilari oggigiorno. Viene anche fornita di tutto il necessario per la colazione della prima mattina (a noi è bastato anche per la seconda colazione), wifi funzionante alla perfezione. Non abbiamo avuto contatti con la proprietaria, ma è sempre stata a disposizione sia prima che durante il soggiorno tramite messaggi o telefono. Ottima soluzione ad un prezzo accessibile per gli standard locali.

L’accès à l’hébergement a été facilité grâce à l’information que nous ont fournis les responsables. Lieux tranquilles, avec vue sur les montagnes, et très bien situé pour les circuits en auto. Accès à des dizaines de pistes pour la randonnée pédestre sur les circuits. Très bien tenu et très propre. Merci!
