"We had the pleasure of staying with Marion & Moray recently. We survived the applecross pass drive! The complementary wee dram was very welcome after the drive & fighting the midges while watching the sunset at the beach. We were in a top floor room. Chatted with Marion & Moray that evening & over the full breakfast offering, talked about Applecross & some culture, events & travel tips which we were useful and gladly adopted! Truly wonderful stay with a lovely friendly couple you will not be disapponted .. watch out for the midges which will attack you 😂.. we also booked the applecross sauna with stunning views which we recommend. Many thanks Marion & Moray .. Andras & Rob"

"Plenty of parking available. The employees we met were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean. The only issue I would have is that the walls of the room are very thin. This wouldn’t prevent me staying again. If planning a trip to Skye I would recommend it as a base."

10/10 Excellent
"This spot was the highlight of our trip! We wished we had booked more time here. This is a set of four little apartment style rooms in what looks like a large shipping container. It's an unassuming building from back that is accessed of a single lane private road. The private property surrounded by mountains and sheep, with a floor to ceiling windowed wall to take in the view. The room was spotless, and featured an antler chandlier. The beds were comfy our unit had a mini kitchen with a Nescafe coffee machine and pods, a mini fridge, kettle, toaster microwave and dishes. Two stools to sit at the counter to eat and an outdoor picnic table. Did I mention the view, because WOW!! In anticipation of arrival we recieved a welcome email and our key was in a lockbox just outside our room. The owners are just an email away for anything, but just let us be which was great. I HIGHLY recommend this place!"
