For almost 200 years, this imposing house has stood in a walled garden at the north end of Skye.
A former manse, it has been sympathetically restored by its owners, Roy and Sally Phelps, and, whilst decorated and finished to a high standard, still retains the atmosphere of a family home.
The house faces south west and enjoys magnificent views across Loch Snizort and the Minch to the Outer Hebrides; on clear days, we can see the ferry leaving Harris, almost two hours sailing time away. The famous Hebridean sunsets can be viewed in all their glory from the guests' sitting room and sea facing bedrooms.
By car from the Skye bridge, take the A87 as far as Uig (52 miles). At the road junction in the centre of Uig, turn right onto the A855, signposted Kilmuir. Follow this road for 3 miles and you will see our house on the right, with the sign as in the picture above. If you are coming off the Western Isles Ferry at Uig, follow the traffic off the ferry along the A87 (signposted Portree) for about 3/4 mile,then turn left onto the A855 and continue as above.
All the rooms are light, spacious, high-ceilinged, furnished with antiques and provided with an interesting and varied selection of books. The upstairs bedrooms are large doubles with sea-facing views. The ground floor bedroom (once the Minister's study) overlooks the attractive garden. It is a large room with a double and a single bed, and a private bathroom. It can easily accommodate wheelchair users.
For over 15 years, we have entertained visitors from all over the world and judging by the ecstatic comments in the visitors' book, all have enjoyed their stay! We feature in several visitor guides (through personal recommendation). An entry in Holiday Which describes Kilmuir House as "charming former manse....offering B&B and spacious rooms".
