It's a drive getting here but it's worth it. We thought we had made reservations for dinner but we (I) had neglected to do so, but they whipped up some lasagna for us and we had a lovely time chatting with a couple from Essex. The owners were very friendly and helpful, and they have a terrific location, with a... more

We had the pleasure of staying four days on the Isle of Skye. Really did not want to leave and move on. There was such a warm welcome when we arrived, felt like home from home ( without any of the work) Breakfast was tasty with fresh eggs from the girls. We had dinner each night and really enjoyed Freddy's... more

My wife and I spent three nights at Carters Rest, on the north-west of Skye, and found it a haven from the modern world. It had everything: quiet and scenic location, excellent food, modern and comfortable rooms with excellent en-suites, and the best of hosts. My wife decided one day to wash some clothes and leave them to dry over... more

My husband and I stayed here with my parents and we all thought it was one of the loveliest and most relaxing breaks we've had. We arrived at Carters Rest late in the afternoon and were greeted by the lovely Betty and the smell of Feddie's home-cooked lasagne. All the food Freddie cooked for us was delicious (the porridge was... more

Betty and Freddy's lovely guesthouse is in a beautifully remote area of the island, with wonderful views over the bay. The rooms were extremely comfortable and very tastefully decorated, the guest lounge warm and friendly, with lots of local information and even a pool table, and our hosts wonderful and friendly. There is wireless internet (for those less intrepid explorers... more

Thank you for your super review. We trust you had a safe trip to Edinburgh and met your friends. (Do not mention the trams !!) You will always remember Carters Rest as the place your wife learned to play chess !! I enjoyed our long discussions Kind Regards Freddie
