We stayed in The Byre for one night during our trip around Scotland. It's a bit off the main track but this makes a stay in Skye special and always worth a few extra miles.
Julian and Diana are great hosts and Diana's home cooked dinner was excellent. No need to go out for dinner, better buy a bottle of wine and enjoy the cosy atmosphere and nice view in this very special cottage and enjoy Diana's cooking. They also offer a wide selction of DVDs for a lazy evening on the couch. Highly recommended hidden treasure!

We arrived early in the morning to confirm the address and were greeted by guests leaving. They raved about The Byre and recommended that we get a good bottle of wine and have Di and Julian cook supper. We did exactly that and wow what an evening. We sat out in the garden and gazed over Glendale and the amazing view. Julian called us in for a wonderful dinner and .....the gooseberry pie was the best ever. Cozy and quaint, it was a perfect spot. I hope that we can go back and spend far longer on Skye.

We stayed here three years ago on our honeymoon and loved it so much we came back, this time wtih a 11 week old baby! The accommodation is very cosy with seats overlooking the bay at glendale (when we were there the sunsets were fantastic too!). The breakfasts were hearty and the evening meals delicious with dishes such as pollock caught by julian and fruit/veg from the garden. They were also very welcoming to the baby though we are sad that we will not be able to go again, once he is out of his basket. One very minor criticism is that the shower didn't work very well but since the bath ran very quickly we just had baths instead! This is a very good value place and a real getaway from city life!

We arrived to the Byre after a 3 hour drive from Inverness to find that our reservation was not booked correctly. They said we had the next two nights not the night we were there. We showed them our printed conformation that we got from them but they said they didn't have it. Odd and annoying.
