Notre séjour chez nos hôtes de l'île de Skye fut très agréable avec le beau temps. Dani est une hôte sympathique et disponible qui est venue nous chercher dans le village comme nous ne trouvions pas le logement. Le logement était propre et décoré avec goût. Merci et bonne continuation.
Carbost village is situated on the west coast of Skye, fairly central on the island. It is home to the world-famous, Talisker Distillery. (Where my husband just so happens to make Talisker Whisky..) Tours of the distillery are available throughout the day. There is an informative visitor centre and a shop to take home some goodies!
The Cuillin mountain range being on the doorstep attracts a lot of hill-walkers, climbers and adventurers to the area. The Fairy Pools, Talisker Bay and Glenbrittle Beach are all within a 10/15 minute drive- these prove hugely popular with visitors all year round and are definitely worth seeing.
The Old Inn is a great local pub 5 minutes walk away, with delicious food (served until 9pm) and a fabulous selection of local beer/ales/whisky. They host traditional, live, Scottish music sessions Wed-Fri which are a must-see for any music lover.
If you want to go slightly further up the peninsula to Portnalong (3 miles), you’ll find the gem that is the Taigh Ailean Hotel and the Munro’s Bar. The food here is exceptional and we can highly recommend visiting here for a good time and top hospitality.
You can buy fresh seafood (cooked and ready to take-away) at the Oyster Shed which you can see across the hillside from your apartment. This is within walking distance.
You can take a boat trip from the pier in the village; self-drive boats or if preferred, a guided tour to see Skye’s abundant wildlife and beauty from the water.
Portree is the nearest town at approx 18 miles away, it’s about a 20 minute drive. You will find a supermarket there as well as other amenities. We advise purchasing your food/shopping before you come to Carbost as most places have limited opening hours.
Carbost village has a small shop/petrol station for essentials, a Post Office and a Doctor’s Surgery for any emergencies.
If you are travelling without a vehicle, there is a local bus service twice a day although please be aware, there is no bus service on a Sunday. We have a new, local Taxi service, Carbost Cars. Tom is a wonderful driver and he’ll look after you and your requirements. Hitching is popular on Skye and islanders are generally very kind at aiding this. If you decide to do this, please be very careful and aware of any risks.
There is so much to do on Skye! This is all local information so you can only imagine how much there is on the entire island. It’s best seen over a few days, which is why we have a two night minimum stay. Anything less, you’d be doing yourself and Skye a disservice!
Guests are recommended to bring their own vehicle- Skye is a large island and you’ll want to see all of it. Bringing a car/van/motorbike will really help this. The location is rural/single track roads so please be a courteous driver and allow overtaking wherever possible.
