First and only time I really enjoyed a Scottish breakfast. Room and bathroom are really really clean (the sheets smell of the sea). The view is amazing and Ms.McCrae is very welcoming. We didn't book ahead and it's a friend of Ms.McCrae in a B&B a few houses next to hers who got us the room. Decoration is crowded but... More

We had a wonderful time at Greenacres. The rooms were super comfortable and the house had a great sitting room and an outside patio area where you could rest and read, or just enjoy the view across the Bay of Portree. Breakfast was very nice as well. The owner and staff of this guest house were very hospitable and made... More

Greenacres has a lovely location, looking out over the water. If you are a good sleeper and don't like to communicate beyond good day with your host, then stay here. Our hosts were welcoming but they were too busy to talk (the B&B had at least 8 rooms). Our room was small, but comfortable. Our biggest problem was that the... More

We had trouble booking a B & B on Skye and were just lucky to find this one! Although you had to drive into town to eat it was worth the drive. The location was peaceful with a view of mountains from our room. The bed was comfortable, the room clean and the breakfast excellent. The lady who served the... More

The folks that run this place (Marie and ??) were both so friendly and their home is right on the water with a beautiful huge garden and deck. There's a nice sun room and a big tv if you want. The rooms are well appointed and you can tell a lot of thought went into them. (mini fridge, tea set... More

This guesthouse was a last minute find for us! The rooms were decorated nicely and the house had a very homely feel. The breakfast however was not the best I have had and was being served personally to early. 0730-0830 is a bit early for holiday makers I feel.I left some perfume however and the guest house lady is kindly...

You can walk to town but it's a bit of a hike - and since we did lots of hiking each day, we didn't do the walk into town. The room was nice (a bit cutesy), location was good although we would have preferred being a bit closer to town. The owners were very nice, good breakfast, and a very... More

We stayed for three nights at Greenacres in Portree at the beginning of August, during the highland games. The B&B is a nice place (though the decor is a little bit kitsch). The owners were really friendly and the breakfasts were very good. The room was comfortable, with a nice view, but a little bit small (difficulties to pack 2... More
