We had a fantastic stay at Taigh Duitseach in April 2024. Checking in was very easy, the property was lovely and clean, the breakfast was exceptional and lovingly cooked in front of us by Jim and Paulline who were very kind and welcoming. We were only on Skye for 72 hours so we'll definitely be coming back and would feel lucky to stay here again next time!

Highly recommend to stay in this suite! We had a wonderful stay. This is a cozy suite with everything you need and the facilities are very clean. The host couple is very friendly as well. We wouldn’t forget they were making us the delicious breakfast everyday! We are so glad to choose this property. Thanks for having us again!

A short walk from the square. A lovely stand alone place that’s updated, friendly, and cosy. Jim was more than patient for a late arrival as our ferry was cancelled. All around great place!

Everything was of a high standard. Jim and Pauline were excellent hosts, the breakfast options were great, and the premises were kept in top condition. It is situated within easy walking distance to the centre of Portree, and suited our needs well.

Room is very small. The 2 ladies at the breakfast are friendly. Property is about 12 minutes walk to town but it is hard to do when it is raining, and it rain all the time when we were there. There is no parking in the town. Roads in Portree are hard to drive, most parts of the road are one car lane so we had to stop every 1/10 mile for other direction go thru. Most people in Scottland are not friendly, I would not come back to Scotland.

We had a great time at this B&B. The house is so cool, with its own history, great people, wonderful attention to detail, gave us great tips for dinning and activities, overall a great experience. A bit out of the way, but that is what we wanted.

Overall stay feels even better than what some hotels offer! Thank you Jim and Pauline for making our stay at Isle of Skye wonderful!

The pros include that the property had plenty of parking, was extremely clean, and nicely located for an easy walk into town. The cons are that not only was the room exceptionally small, but the bed was unbelievably rock hard. Both my wife and I woke up several times per night with aching joints. Like sleeping on wood. Also of extreme frustration was that the window for dining in the morning was only 1 hour, 8 to 9 a.m. For travelers who are often jet lagged after lengthy journeys, this is totally unfortunate, to say nothing of being the most restrictive window for dining I've ever seen in a B&B. So, overall, while the property had some positives to it, we both agreed it was the most disappointing of all our stays throughout the country, and mostly because of things that could be easily remedied if the owners chose to do so.

Our stay at Taigh Duitseach was so pleasant. One of the best we have stayed at in terms of comfort, cleanliness, and friendliness. Jim and Paulline were so welcoming and warm. Breakfast each morning was a wonderful start to each day on Skye. You certainly cannot go wrong booking your stay here! Thank you Jim & Paulline for a great stay!

Excellent stay in Portree
We had a great time staying here at Taigh Duitseach B&B. We got a room with a double bed on the 2nd floor by the stair. The room was spacious and very clean and I love the white and turquoise decoration. We had a view of the front of the house that overlooked the mountain and the loch. Bed was very comfortable which was great after a long hiking day in the Skye. Bathroom was clean and had everything you need including soap, shampoo, toothbrush, toothpaste, q-tip, and cotton pad. Water pressure was excellent. It might not be that important for some but for us high water pressure while taking a shower is a must! There was also complimentary tea (large selection!), cookies, and coffee in the room with water pitcher that got refilled everyday. Breakfast in the morning was top notch! You got a home-cooked food with so much variety and bakery and fruit. Jim and Paulline were greatest hosts who I believe did the cooking and accommodated us at breakfast every morning. We stayed here for 2 nights and loved every bit of it. If we get to come back to the Skye, we will definitely be staying here again.
