    A little on the pricier side compared to other places I've stayed in Scotland, but that seems to be the norm on Skye, so not a huge deal. A blackout backing on the window curtain would be good, especially as the window takes up most of the wall.

    Great little place with a lovely view of the garden and the nearby loch. The hosts were very friendly and approachable and they have two of the cutest, friendliest dogs! There was even a small seal colony that you can walk to at the end of the road. Small kitchen was good, there's only a stovetop so you need to bear that in mind when choosing things to cook. The hosts also provided a breakfast basket with eggs, bread, cereals and a couple of homebaked muffins which was lovely. A small bottle of milk and orange juice and some butter was in the fridge, which was very handy and appreciated.

    One of the best B&B I stayed. Neil was very kind and helpful. Kiloran is very well equipped, clean and with such a wonderful view of the lake & garden. The food basket is amazing. They have even prepared the pillow mist that we like very much.

    Would 100% stay again and have recommended to others, bed is comfy, the window in the suite is gorgeous to look out on the water and watch the sunset, location was great for us, ~15 minutes from Portree and right on the water. Everything was clean and the muffins are a lovely touch! The hosts go above and beyond for their guests.

    This is a sweet little place! Very cozy and comfortable in a beautiful location. Our host was friendly and helpful.There is a beautiful view from the window and Neil directed us to a small island a short walk down the road where a seal colony rests at low tide. The description on Booking.com doesn't do it justice!

    The location was perfect for our needs and it was a good value. Neil was helpful, curious about our interests and provided us with positive suggestions including places to eat, and places to walk and climb. He also provided us with a basket filled with some snacks and cereals as well as muffins. He was responsive to our questions. The large picture window provided us with a picturesque view of the sea loch and a beautiful sunset. We were happy with our stay.

    The unexpected heat wave in Scotland and the gorgeous bay window resulted in a scalding hot room, which we've had a hard time cooling down.

    The fabulous view on the Loch directly from the bed when waking up, the walk around the area (seals galore!), and our host's adorable dog who welcomed us.

    What an absolutely fantastic place to stay. Neil & Kirsten were so welcoming & helpful. It's got everything you need and the view from the room is amazing. We found this relatively easy to find, Neil had sent us clear instructions, which made it even easier. On arrival, we were greeted with homemade muffins, milk, juice, breakfast cereals, and coffee. We would definitely return here, thank you!

    None of the things mentioned above were deal breakers - I've gone into a lot of detail just to help people make a choice.

    Kiloran is what might be called a "mother in law" suite in the US - a self-contained bedroom/kitchen area attached but separate from a main house. The best things about it - the hosts were lovely, helpful and friendly. They will offer suggestions and know where to go, both top 10 sites and less traveled ones. Facilities are comfortable and bright. There is a huge window with a glorious view (slight negatives - it doesn't open, so it can get stuffy if the sun is coming directly in, and you're on the ground floor, so there is a small chance of someone looking in). The area is quiet and there's a seal colony at the end of the road, that is a treat to visit at low tide. For those with movement issues, there are no steps. To help decide if this is right for you: You're right next to a main house, and you can hear folks move about. No big deal unless you were looking for absolute privacy. This rental wouldn't work without a car. It takes about 10-15 minutes to get to the main town, Portree. There are no services close by, the road is residential. I liked the quiet. If you're driving, Skeabost takes about an hour to reach from the Kyle of Lochalsh bridge or about 75 minutes from the Armadale ferry, but is well situated to see much of the island - basically right in the middle. Facilities: There's a complete orientation manual waiting for you on arrival, along with breakfast items (bread, cereals, milk, OJ, and some pastries) along with some home baked goody. There was also salt, pepper, some cooking oil and some butter. The kitchen is simple – you could make eggs, toast, a salad or boil pasta. You want a smoothie, bring your own blender. Small things that would make a difference: some containers and sandwich or quart sized bags, a dish rack, an empty pitcher to chill water, and a small fan. Skye is not hot, but the room doesn't cross-ventilate so well.

    This suite was perfectly built for a couple who wants to visit any area of the Isle of Skye. Portree is just over 15 minutes away for plenty of food options. The seal colony that hangs out at the end of the end of the street is a nice bonus!

    2 seperate beds would have been nice. But I ordered the room anyway because of the location, view and self serving arrangement.

    The view. The "welcome-package" was amazing. The instructions were great too. Room is cozy, quirkey and personal. That was so great. You can see that the hosts put in effort and passion. Thanks for making a stay like this possible.

    The room was a bit hot from the sunny days. We could have opened the windows to let some fresh air in, but didn't want to let the bugs in as well. Other than that, nothing to say.

    The uniqueness of the location and the isolation of it
