“Highly recommended!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 August 2011

people found this review helpful

The room we stayed in (the Rennie McIntosh) was excellent! Big, spacious, and very clean. The en suite bathroom was also large and sunny. Breakfast was delicious and included homemade muffins and crepe-style pancakes. The best breakfast we had our whole trip! The best part were the hosts--extremely personable, friendly, and eager to share their wealth of local knowledge (and they were big Radiohead fans!). This B&B is highly recommended!

“Great B&B in superb location”

I stayed here for two nights during a period of dramatic changes in the weather. My room was well furnished and spotlessly clean, with a great view over the loch - and the full Scottish breakfast was awesome!

“Great stay -- would recommend”

Chris and Elaine are super friendly. The bedroom was large, clean, and tastefully decorated with plenty of personal touches. The bathroom was large and equipped with an good warm powerful shower. The Highland Soap Co. products were very nice.

Vegetarian breakfasts are available. They are excellent in quality and voluminous in quantity. Veggie or not, you will enjoy the home baking and preserves.

Carbost makes a good base for exploring the Cuillin and Talisker bay. The Old Inn across the road is a great pub and the Talisker distillery is 2 mins walk away.

“Whisky Lovers Dream”

From the outside Phoenix House looked a little run down but once inside we got a friendly welcome from the owners. Our room was spacious and modern as was the en- suite and both were spotlessly clean. An added bonus was the beautiful view. Breakfast was delicious with lots of added extras like home made muffins which were gorgeous. The icing on the cake was that we were only a minute walk from Talisker Distillery!!!!

Friendly welcome. Spacious rooms. Excellent breakfast with home made muffins available. Good pub meals available within walking distance. Off-road parking. Well placed for Coullins and Glenbrittle. Quiet location in village with good views.

Room Tip: The two front rooms look out over the loch.
