Sometimes you come across a B&B that you simply don't want to leave. Ben Tianavaig is one of those places that has everything going for it. The B&B is located almost in the centre of town, on a terrace overlooking the pretty port. Portree is the logical base for touring the whole of Skye and we managed to get out... More

We loved Portree, it was my absolutely favorite stop in Scotland. Our location was fabulous, looked right over the town.. it's hard to tell from google street view, but you're right in the middle of everything. just a couple steps down the hill to all of the shops and restaurants. Bill and Charlotte were amazing hosts, great breakfast conversation and... More

A wonderful stay in a beautiful part of the world. We felt very welcome and couldn't have asked for any more. Great room & bathroom with an amazing view. Off street parking and right in town. A great base for the isle of Skye. More

I absolutely adored this bed and breakfast! Bill and Charlotte are warm, helpful, and truly wonderful people. They made us feel very welcome from the moment we pulled up until the moment we left. Charlotte even gave me a big hug. :) I think a bed and breakfast is only as good as the hosts and we lucked out. As... More

When you visit Skye, Scotland you go to Portree. And when you go to Portree you stay with Bill en Charlotte Johnson. They have a lovely B&B with a splendid view on the harbor. The rooms are very comfortable and really everything you need is available. But most of all your stay will be memorable because of Bill and Charlotte.... More

I booked Ben Tianavaig after reading reviews on Trip Advisor and I have to agree with others that the welcome Charlotte & Bill give, together with the breakfasts and comfort of the room is excellent! It was lovely to chat with them at breakfast time and it was a nice touch to be introduced to the other guests too. The... More

Charlotte and Bill were amazing hosts. I forgetfully left behind my laptop charger and a book which they were kind enough to send back via mail asap. Our room was really tasteful done and extremely comfy. It came well equipped with a great selection of books and board games for rainy days. The B&B location was perfect - along the... More

Charlotte and Bill are the most amazing hosts. They were so welcoming throughout our stay and so helpful. The room was lovely - clean, light and had everything you'd need. The breakfast was delicious. The B&B is right in town so you can walk to the restaurants which is perfect. It overlooks the water and hills so you don't feel... More
