Very well serviced and appointed - we appreciated the welcome package on arrival. Roomy apartment - good beds, plenty of linen, washer and dryer- great advantage for us. So well located to Visit Plockton village, Eilean Donan Castle and Isle of Skye. Fantastic Fish Chip van on Friday night. Lovely view, close to Spa grocery and little pub. Parking out the front - everything was a bonus. Thank you our hosts Roddy and Elizabeth - Great location - recommend highly to other travellers

Value for money, the family room was actually 3 separate rooms, for us a family of 4 adults, it was perfect. The beds were comfortable and the shower had plenty of hot water with high pressure flow. Breakfast was delicious, lots of options to choose from including vegan options. The scrambled eggs were very fluffy and the smoked salmon melt in the mouth.

It was my best stay in Scotland, and they were mostly 4-star hotels in the list. Staff was very well coming, nicest check in I’ve had in Scotland. The pods are equipped with everything you may need including just stunning view on the isle of Skye. There is a very nice cafe with Scottish cuisine and Highlander cows farm nearby - both are brilliant compliment to the stay

Cute and Cozy house located close to the Skye Bridge. The hosts lived right next door and were so warm and quick to respond to any request. Even greeted us on arrival and welcomed us to their home. I would highly recommend this for people visiting Isle of Skye. The only issue would be the bedrooms on the first floor which could be a problem for people with mobility issues who can’t walk up and down stairs.

    Handy for access to Skye. Plockton and Eilean Donan Castle.

    Handy for access to Skye. Plockton and Eilean Donan Castle. Breakfast at Old Post Office Balmacara rather inadequate in that it would not set you up for the day. Old Post Office is overpriced for the facilities and breakfast provided. You will need to arrive before 5pm while the housekeeper is still on duty just incase Booking.com have supplied an incorrect key code

    The host was nice. We were advised there were places to eat in the village. We wandered up but unfortunately nothing was open so we couldn't really go anywhere or have the choice of places to eat. There is a hotel a few doors along where we had an expensive dinner. There is also a shop a few doors along. The rooms would be better with a TV as there isn't much to do. Breakfast was okay. My friends would've liked the option of a cooked breakfast rather than the continental one.

    Great location on the Loch literally across the road. We managed to get food in the hotel virtually next door. There is also a well stocked shop next door. Room was fine and clean. Bathroom had a very tiny sink not good for shaving. Breakfast was good. Staff very helpful.
