Colbost Hotels, Glendale

"The room was spacious and clean with all amenities. The staff were attentive and pleasant and the food was excellent, both breakfast and dinner wih a wide variety of choice. Parking was convenient. The only drawback was getting there....a long journey and difficult approach lane with a cattle grid and potholes. That aside, the hotel was excellent and well worth a visit."

"Mayanne was very friendly and very attentive. Access to the property (through the lot of the adjacent gas station) and parking were tight, but workable. Breakfast consisted of croissants, toast, yogurt, milk, orange juice, coffee and hot water served on a cart Mayanne left at our door with a knock. An assortment of cold cereals and some fruit were available on tables in the small hallway we shared with other guests. The room was cozy and the shower was the smallest we've used, but the only significant issue with ammenities was that there was only one accessible electrical outlet, so we had to switch between the TV, the fan, my wife's hair dryer and charging our phones."

"We really enjoyed our stay at the Skeabost! The bartender, check in staff and wait staff were all very friendly! The view is magnificent and we walked all around the property after breakfast. Babbling brook, abandoned medieval ruins and a 9 hole golf course that is no longer in use. We loved our stay!"

"The perfect base camp on Skye. Exactly what we wanted for our stay. Walking distance to the Fairy Glen, RHA falls, and the port as well as a quick drive into Portree if you want to go into actual town. Not to mention the stunning view from our room. The staff is amazingly helpful and I can’t say enough good things about the restaurant."

"Most over priced and over rated place I have ever stayed at"

"We had a wonderful week at the Backrest. The house is beautifully located and the views from the living room and from the deck at the front are fantastic. We found everything really clean, and very comfortable, with all the items needed to make us feel 'at home'. We were lucky to be there on really lovely sunny days, but I think it would be great also in colder times and promises to be a very cosy place. Mette was very helpful and responsive when we had any questions ahead of arriving, and all the information we got was accurate. We would definitely look to stay again at the Backrest. We travelled with our cat, who seemed to be very content and quickly found all the right places to settle down for long sleeps, allowing us to get out and about. We really appreciated being able to bring him along!"

"Great breakfast and very friendly staff. Easy walk into Portree for restaurants and bars, plus convenient onsite parking. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but somewhat small with limited luggage space. "

"Beautiful views, lovely stay"

"The cutest hotel ever! Everything was fantastic! The staff was great and extremely helpful and friendly! The food was the best food I had my whole trip in Scotland! I loved it so much I ended up staying an extra night here!"
