Great Stay

The cabin was very charming and comfortable. The clothes washing was very convenient. We were lucky to have nice weather and were able to enjoy coffee on the patio in the mornings before we spent our days exploring. The one thing the photos don't capture is how beautiful the view is - it was so much better in person. We also toured the castle grounds and they were lovely as well.

This was a last minute booking and was well worth the 8 hour drive to get to Armadale. Cottage was fantastic and felt immediately cosy and homely. The area is spectacularly beautiful- we will be coming back!

We absolutely loved our stay at the Armadale Castle, the view from the place was amazing. My husband and I went during their off season so they place was pretty much to ourselves, I personally loved how quite it was and how close the store was to the place. We plan on booking again when we go back to Scotland.

The perfect spot to stay if you’re looking to explore the Isle of Skye. The cabin is really cozy with a full kitchen. The staff were very responsive and friendly. Would highly recommend!

The Armadale Cabins were perfectly situated. They were easy to access from the ferries and yet felt so peaceful and tranquil. They are near many nature trails on the property and the cabins are furnished with additional information about other walks and hikes of varying degrees of difficult. I was traveling with my elderly parents so we didn’t do many trails, but the views of the sea from the patio were stunning and we had one wonderful night of stargazing. The cabins were also fantastically well equipped with kitchen goods. There were even egg cups and fish knives in the cabinets. All considered, it was the perfect place to stay and one of the highlights of our trip to Scotland.

This is a property that you could really spend a full week at and not be able to explore all of the estate grounds. Wonderfully quiet and beautiful castle grounds next door along with a cafe. The water views were relaxing.

Perfect customer service, beautiful cabins. Lovely welcome package that is very informative of all the features or the cabin and local area. Ill be back for sure. My favorite part was how quiet it was and how far off the main road it is so there is absolutely zero traffic. Lots of walking trails. Youll love it

A Quiet Escape

It was very clean and very comfortable. The cabin was in a very quiet location. It was well stocked with lots of dishes and cutlery. There was a small grocery within a four minute walk. Armadale castle was close by.

Lovely place. But very isolated and out of the way. Have to drive 30 minutes to the nearest supermarket and restaurant. The armada castle and gardens are pleasant way to spend an afternoon.

Good stay, but not suitable for exploring Skye!

It was a spacious apartment type suite. Faculties were appropriate. Though situated inside the castle compound Armadale itself is not a convenient place to stay if one is trying to explore the skye. All the interesting sites are far away. Portree or somewhere near broadford would have been better suited. The castle is in ruins, but the garden was beautiful and was well kept. The museum was interesting, though may not interest Asians too much as it is about Scotland history. But the visit comes free of one stays in this property.

RUSTIC CABIN IN SKYE - with modern conveniences! A log cabin up on the hill with a beautiful view of the water & ferry dock. Easy check-in -- it would have been nicer if cabin was heated up to temperature before we checked in -- pretty cold @ 3:00 pm. in January. Also, it would have been nice if towels & toilet paper had been replenished during our 4 night stay, lucky the 'corner store' had TP! Other than that, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Armadale Castle and would recommend it … you've got to see the Skye!! Gasta Restaurant is an easy 10 minute walk (downhill) from the lodges -- Roast beef & Yorkshire 'Puds' served on Sundays was the best we've ever had! Fish 'n chips were good, too.
