“Friendly B&B in a good location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 September 2011

We stayed here for two days in September and used it a hopping off point for Skye. Mike and young Josh were extremely friendly and helpful, which made our stay all the more pleasant. The house is showing its age in some areas but our room was comfortable clean and quiet with all the necessary amenities (and Mike brings up the milk for your tea, thanks Mike).

“A MOST FREINDLYSTAY, THANK YOU MIKE,”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

For all you who read these reviews, Please rest assured of a most plesant and freindly welcome at the old bank house from Mike.
We traveled up from Worthing west sussex ,and found that Mike and his son Josh waiting with a very warm freindly welcome. Mike just goes out of his way to help with anything you need, He is a brilliant cook , his breakfasts are fantastic , the rooms are warm and cosey along with VERY comfortable beds. The seperate loo is not a problem and all are spotlesly clean. We had two nights at the Bank house and would love to return. If you like REAL honest freindly people, you will find then here.
Mike thank you very much for all you did for us and we hope all things work out for you.
and we wish you all the very best for the future.

“The hardest assessment I've ever given...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 August 2011
3
people found this review helpful

Michael has in the last few weeks lost his wife. He is a lovely man. He has a lovely son. He cooks wonderful generous breakfasts and he offers a very warm welcome. His B&B accommodation is spotlessly clean - rooms, seperate toilets and bathroom. The bedding is impeccably clean , towels too....

The accommodation is basic with scope for modernisation. This isn't reflected in his pricing of £60 per room for 2 people without ensuite facilitiies.

Michael puts his heart into his B&B and we wish him every success.

“Comfortable stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 August 2011

At first my friend and I thought it's a mistake to stay for one night in Kyle of Lochalsh, but the B&B is an unexpected surprise! Mike (the owner) was very helpful and kindly gave us a number to call him if we got stuck in Eilean Donan Castle. His son Joshua took us to the lighthouse and showed us the most beautiful sunset in our journey! The tour was so nice that it ended the day perfectly! The B&B is clean, quiet and with comfortable beds, and it's the most pleasant place to stay in our Scotland trip. Hope we'll meet again someday in the future!
