The 16-hotel bedrooms are all individual in character and decor, some with the original wood panelling, the odd turret and even an antique canopy bed from nearby Armadale Castle. Panoramic views across the water of the Sound of Sleat to the lighthouse of Isle Ornsay and the rugged hills of Knoydart make the perfect backdrop for your stay. Enjoy the log fires and candlelit dinners in the Birlinn Restaurant or relish an excellent malt whisky by the fireside in the relaxed and cosy Praban Bar . There are also regular evenings of live traditional music and song in a friendly Ceilidh atmosphere to experience true Highland hospitality. The Inn at Ardvasar The Inn at Ardvasar became part of Fearann Eilean Iarmain in 2017. The Inn has a relaxed, friendly and comfortable atmosphere. Open all year, it is the ideal place to experience The Isle of Skye through the changing seasons. Built in the early 1800s the Inn at Ardvasar is one of the oldest inns on Skye and enjoys panoramic views overlooking the water off the bay and the Sound of Sleat with the rugged hills of Morar in the distance. The Inn is located in the small village of Ardvasar, a short distance from Armadale where the Caledonian MacBrayne ferry from Mallaig brings you over the sea from Mallaig to The Isle of Skye. With a total of 10-hotel bedrooms , The Inn at Ardvasar features a combination of suites, double and twin rooms with views overlooking the water of the bay or the woodland of the hills. Enjoy a delicious menu in the MacNaMara Bar , the Linne restaurant or the dog friendly Bothan Bar. Outdoor seating with a stunning view. Just the place to relax with a Gaelic Gin cocktail! Barabhaig Cottage Barabhaig is a very well-appointed detached stone cottage which has a wonderful, peaceful position on the shore of Camas Croise Bay on the Sleat peninsula in the south-eastern corner of Skye. Just a 20-minute drive south of the Skye Bridge and 15-minute drive north of Armadale where the car-ferry arrives from Mallaig and ‘The Road to the Isles’, this is a wonderfully serene spot to watch the otters. The cottage itself is spacious and comfortable. The charming sitting room has an open fire, there is a well-equipped dining kitchen and a downstairs twin bedroom. Upstairs are double and twin bedrooms and a bathroom. The many windows make it a very bright cottage, to which it is a joy to return after a day on the shore, out on the water, or exploring this most romantic and beautiful island.
