succulent duck delicious sauce
i booked a table an hour earlier. the confit duck tasted succulent. the redcurrant sauce tasted delicious. it was so good to find somewhere for dinner when it's still quiet season in skye.
the room felt dated and quite small. the toilet layout wasn't very user-friendly and felt a bit uncomfortable.

small room unresponsive remote
my room, a twin room, was hardly sufficient in size. maneuvering around the beds proved a challenge. additionally, the television remote was unresponsive. i struggled to change channels, and the volume control was erratic. a prompt solution to these issues would be appropriate.

charming stay!

helpful staff smoked salmon creamy yoghurt
the staff welcomed me and was super helpful. breakfast had great options, specially smoked salmon and creamy yoghurt. settling in the lounge before dinner for a gin felt just right. the owner, jenn, gave great hiking suggestions, perfect for my equipment.
the smell of cooking fumes in the corridor close to the kitchen wasnt great. it sort of affected the overall experience. better ventilation is needed.
