Where do I start? From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel so welcome. Our room was perfect with all the little extras to make it homely. The breakfast was scrumptious (even if I didn’t steal the recipe for the home-made bread) and it was the best haggis I’ve ever eaten. The hosts, Lian Na and Andy, were absolutely delightful, and helped immensely with tips on what to see, where to go. And, the birds! Watching them at the feeder was a highlight. Altogether a great place to stay.

Our room had the bathroom opposite, it wasn’t a problem at all, but midnight runs to the loo meant donning a robe 😂. We prefer a bathroom within our room. This didn’t take away from our stay at all, just be aware you may need a robe.

Andy and Lian Na were wonderful hosts. Their home is very clean and comfortable. We had a large, quiet, beautifully decorated bedroom with ensuite (with shower and bath). There was a kettle, biscuits and some yummy local fudge. We could have used a guest lounge area if we had wanted to, but as we had 2 armchairs and a small table, we stayed in our room. Bedding and towels were quality. USB ports and a multi box made charging appliances easy. We used a guest fridge in the breakfast room to store some food we had brought with us. There was off street parking and instructions on finding the house were excellent. We enjoyed delicious breakfasts with a selection of juices, cereals, fresh fruit, yogurts, cooked food and toast. Oh, and cake, which we could have wrapped to take with us for later. Everything was homemade or locally procured. We enjoyed watching the birds feeding while we had breakfast.

Nothing!

Even before I arrived, Andy (the host) and I had a brief email dialogue about the check in process and the state of the roads on Skye. He was extremely responsive, cordial, and helpful during our exchange. Once we met him and Lina in person, it was no surprise that they were equally pleasant in person as Andy had been with me over email. Andy and Lina are a delightful couple, eager to help and warm in demeanor. They have two bedrooms on the ground floor and we stayed in the master suite. Room and bathroom were both large, comfortable, and clean with everything any traveler could ask for. Andy was thorough during our orientation of the home and insightful in his suggestions. Lina's breakfasts are top notch and they even give you options! We tried the smoked salmon the first morning and the Scottish breakfast the second day. Many people dread haggis, but Lina's was delicious. We were very sorry to say good bye to them at the end of our stay. If we ever find ourselves again in Skye, you can bet we will be staying again with Lina and Andy!

Zero bad things to say about our experience here

We really enjoyed our stay at The Roses B&B. Andy and Lian Na were extremely helpful and attentive hosts, and even shared important information about traffic and road closures prior to our arrival so we could plan accordingly. The B&B was clean and the breakfast was phenomenal. We especially loved the salmon, the yogurt, and the Scottish breakfast. We also enjoyed the extra coffee, tea, and treats. The location was fabulous, we were able to walk to town for dinner. It was only a short drive to visit sights around the island. We highly recommend staying here!

nothing loved it

Amazing breakfast homemade by the Roses! You get a menu the day before which you can select the items you want- you won’t be left hungry! The homemade yogurt was amazing- the other reviews don’t lie! The Roses have literally thought of everything you could need and want! So many extra little touches. I would recommend this place to anyone traveling to isle of skye!

Nothing! Some commented on the location being a bit far from the town of Portree but we walked to town and back for dinner and it was a nice 15ish min walk and had sidewalks the whole way.

Our room was a spacious, comfortable, well equipped home from home and breakfast was an event worth looking forward to. We were so well looked after by our fabulous hosts. Their standards were high and we appreciated that. It's a short, safe walk into town, but if you don't fancy the uphill stroll on the way back, Portree has lots of parking space really close to all the excellent restaurants, bars and shops. If you are looking for an excellent base from which to explore the delights of Skye you won't find a better option than The Roses.

That we had to leave!

Lian and Andy are perfectionist hosts with no detail too small for attention. The bedroom, bathroom, common use living room and breakfast area were all exceptionally clean and comfortable. Breakfast was made to order with our party of four all having different meals -veggie omelette, smoked salmon, Scottish breakfast, bacon and eggs with fresh juices, fruits and baked goods. They are lovely people who take pride in their beautiful home. Location convenient to downtown Portree. Would definitely stay there again.

Everything was great.

The property was immaculate with a comfortable bed, clean and well equipped room and bathroom and offered all we could want for our two night stay in Portree. Lina & Andy were very hospitable, caring and friendly and ensured we were well informed. The breakfast was delicious. We also were happily surprised by the slices of cake to take with us for morning tea.

Nothing to be improved.

We booked this as being a great base to explore the Isle of Skye and it certainly did not disappoint. The accommodation was excellent and the owners were 1st class. They were very friendly and could not do enough for you. On arrival everything was explained to us, there was plenty of information available on the local area and apart from our room there was also a guest lounge where you could go and relax rather than being in your room which I must say was very comfortable. The breakfast was excellent all freshly cooked according to your choice made beforehand. We certainly enjoyed our time at the Roses bed and breakfast and would not hesitate in booking there again.

There was nothing to dislike. In our opinion you could not fault it.
