We started our three weeks in Scotland on Isle of Skye. Our first night there we ate at Three Chimneys. I have had the opportunity to eat at most of the great restaurants in NYC, New Orleans and Los Angeles. But, I have never had a meal that came close to being as good as the one I had at... more

we did not stay here, but did so nearby and this restaurant was recommended by our hostess. while the food is a bit pricey, remember it is a remote place and features fresh local shellfish. a winning owner and attentive staff added to our enjoyment. the unbelievably beautiful village and setting made this a highlight of our two weeks in... more

Thank you very much for posting your compliments on the website and please try to come again one day - perhaps when the family have grown-up and fledged the...

I'm not one for writing reviews but after reading some of the reviews on here for The Three Chimneys, I feel I have to contribute. Firstly, the food is outstanding and great value. If you want a Sunday roast with mountains of veg and gravy go to one of the many pubs located throughout the North of Scotland who will... more

Dear Trevorbob, We too find it baffling sometimes when we read bad reviews, but we know after many, many years of experience that it is impossible to please everyone, all of the time. However, we have never given-up trying and hopefully, the kind of experience that you describe is more like the majority experience! We keep trying anyway! And will...

The 7 course taster menu. £70 a head. Went away hungry. Everything on the menu is a very acquired taste. If you want excellent quality food (where you can substitute any dish on the taster menu with a dish you want), go to The Peat Inn, infinitely superior to this restaurant. The restaurant was spotlessly clean, but in my opinion,... more

Hello pwbw, This is a strange review! The Three Chimneys is renowned worldwide for serving the most freshest of Scottish seafood. The 7 Courses of Skye Tasting Menu is designed to showcase these delicious products, plus all the other magnificent ingredients we have available to us from the island. I am not sure why you selected this menu if you...

Dinner at 3 Chimneys was my favorite meal in a fortnight of touring Britain with my partner. Every dish was fresh, inventive, and delicious, and the service was outstanding, the wine service especially so. Breakfast on a blue-sky morning was also superb and simply gorgeous. Rooms are pricey but very comfortable. Overall, a terrific experience if you are willing to... more

My wife and I stayed (and ate) at the Three Chimneys for our anniversary this year. I'd always been intrigued, but had never come up this far in Scotland. In terms of location, it was truly beautiful, helped by a day of breezy sunshine on the Saturday. Remote, but deeply engaging. Foodwise, I loved it. The seafood was particularly fine,... more

Dear Cheltenham2009, You have sent a truly delightful review that touches on several points that you noticed in particular and we are genuinely, delighted that you have done this. We do try to look after those with genuine dietary requirements and to go that extra mile whenever we can. Glad that you loved the wine list too. Thank you for...

We had a long drive from Loch Lomond to get to The Three Chimneys and The House Over-By and the whole trip was a surprise for our honeymoon. On the approach I was getting a tad nervous as the area is so remote I wondered what our destination would be like and whether my wife (still getting used to saying... more

Arrived for lunch on Thurs 2nd July to be met with the news there was a power cut. Had just driven for an hour and a half from Knock bay in Sleat, through torrential rain. Offered cold choices on menu, none really suitable. Teenage son gutted, meal was to be the highlight of his dull holiday. Made the mistake of... more

Dear Coalfire, I am so sorry this happened on "your" special day. The power cut was as much of a shock to us as it was for you and your son. Let me explain. We were all ready to begin lunch service , with a few people already seated in the restaurant when the power went off. (Despite our location,...

We first came across The Three Chimneys over ten years ago, when it was a restaurant sans rooms. We fell in love with the idyllic setting on the edge of Loch Dunvegan & were charmed by Eddie & Shirley Spears, the lovely owners (even though Eddie 'corrupted' us with an introduction to Henschke's Mount Edelstone Shiraz.....) . We travel a... more

Dear High_Ground_hIKER, I can't believe you have out-written me!! More wonderful words than I can believe. I am on the verge of tears at your fabulous review. Thank you so very much from everyone here at The Three Chimneys. You have got it absolutely right - including the photographs from the French windows of your room. We are so pleased...
