Excellent Lodge, very clean and great facilities. Would recommend to anyone.
Other than the weather, we had a great stay. Was booked for a small group of friends as a base to do some cycling and a a bit of sightseeing. Perfect for this and very quiet and peaceful.

Great Stay
My family and I enjoyed our stay. The views were beautiful. The cabin was clean and well suited for our family. Location was pretty great just on the far end of Skye so takes longer to travel to visit places but overall that didn’t hinder us.

Third visit - will be back again!
We had a great week staying in Glengarry Lodge. Family all had their own space and the lodge is very well equipped and has great ambiance. Very practical and lovely cosy evenings and great views out over harbour back to Mallaig.

Delighted with our cabin, was a great place for us to stay on a sea-kayaking weekend
A lovely welcome at our cabin with wine and shortbread, and a personalised welcome note. The cabin was spotlessly clean and very well equipped kitchen. Bedrooms were fresh and comfortable. Good electric shower. It was perfectly quiet and peaceful with beautiful sound of an owl hooting at night. But best of all - view across to Mallaig. We watched the sea, sky, hills, ferries and weather like it was the best show on the planet. Just beautiful and wouldn't hesitate to come back.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
A beautiful and restful cabin from which to explore the Isle of Skye.
Clean and cosy log cabin within a beautiful setting. It was very peaceful and private with amazing views.Everything you required for self catering was good but we could have done with at least one large pot (for cooking for 4 adults) and sharper knives. Otherwise have no other criticisms, it was a fantastic base from which to explore this beautiful island and would highly recommend it.
