Why we love it
The setting
Duisdale House Hotel sits at Sleat, on the southern stretch of the Isle of Skye, looking out over the Sound of Sleat towards the mainland hills. It is a Victorian stone house set in its own gardens, a short walk from a public beach. The location is quiet and a little remote, which is the point: this is the green, gentle side of Skye, away from the busier roads further north. You are close enough to drive to the island's bigger sights, but the house itself feels far from anything hurried.
What to expect
The Standard Double room runs to about 15 square metres with a full double bed, a private bathroom and free Wi-Fi. Rooms are decorated in a warm, traditional style with comfortable seating. The hotel has a lounge with an open fire, a restaurant looking out to the water, and well-kept gardens to wander. Breakfast can be added at booking. With 22 rooms across three floors, the place stays small and personal rather than busy.
Things to do nearby
The hotel is next to a public beach, with a picnic area on the grounds. Gallery An Talla Dearg, a local art gallery, is about 1.3 km away. The Armadale ferry and the Clan Donald Centre at Armadale Castle gardens are a short drive south along the Sleat peninsula. Drive north and you reach the Cuillin mountains, the Fairy Pools and Portree, the island's main town. Broadford, with shops and services, is the nearest larger village.
Best for
Couples after a calm few days on Skye, with good food, a fire to sit by and easy access to the island's walks and coast. Best for travellers who want a base with character rather than a busy hotel.
