Cosy and picturesque haven in the Isle of Skye

Hotel Eilean Iarmain, Sound of Sleat, Scotland, UK

Property details

An elegant Highland idyll with mesmerising views over the Sound of Sleat on the picturesque Isle of Skye - including breakfast, three-course dinner, a bottle of prosecco, and late check-out.
  • Highland charm: Set in a traditional Highland house with classic interiors that hearken back to a bygone age, Hotel Eilean Iarmain brims with charm. Sink into the deep sofas beside a roaring fireplace, nestle up in the cosy rooms, and lean into the comforting feel-good factor of the cottage chintz decor. And when you need a “pinch-me” moment, look no further than the views outside where you’ll find timeless natural beauty.

  • Traditional flavours: You’ll find both hearty, comforting cuisine and a more sophisticated take on the flavours of Skye in the hotel’s restaurant. Log fires and candlelight create the perfect ambience, while fresh local ingredients, including freshly caught seafood and venison from the Eilean estate, pack every dish with flavour. And don’t miss out on the excellent selection of malt whiskies in the wood-panelled bar.

  • Romantic location: Located close to the ferry port and Skye bridge, your hotel is easy to get to while still enjoying a stunningly picturesque location. Views of the rolling hills and the Isle Ornay lighthouse are right on your doorstep, and the surrounding region is blissfully tranquil.

How to get there

Hotel Eilean Iarmain is approximately two hours’ drive from Inverness and can be reached by car or public transport via the toll-free road bridge, or alternatively by ferry.
