The Sabhal offers wonderful superior accommodation on our croft at 40 Bernisdale in The Isle Of Skye. Purpose built in Larch as an accommodation offering. Featuring 2 separate rooms both with private entrances, finished with quality furnishing and unique design. This accommodation can be enjoyed with a group of 4 or just as easily as 2 separate couples. In each room you can enjoy raised ceilings deep comfortable King size beds, power showers and delightful natural toiletries in each bathroom. There is a Kitchen counter in each room with sink, full sized under counter fridge, and 2 ring cooking facility. Table and chairs in your spacious room, for you to prepare and eat breakfast at your leisure. Wrap up in the cosy fleece dressing gowns to eat if you like. Both rooms have private entrances with their own outdoor seating area directly outside the room.
Ally is born and raised on the Island whilst Rachael is from Australia and the two met when Rachael was working the summer on the Island back in 2003, they now have four children and together they own and run The Sabhal accommodation at their Croft 40 Bernisdale. They also have Skye Shepherds Hut on the Croft ' also listed here on this site a genuine Shepherds hut with Wood burning stove and cooking facilities. We love running this accommodation on our Croft here in Skye and would love to meet you, come and see our sheep, cows and dogs and enjoy our spacious rooms and property.
Bernisdale is a quiet village located 8 miles outside of Portree ,The Isle Of Skyes main town. Centrally located on the Island, a wonderful base for your stay on Skye. The Sabhal has 3 restaurants close by one just a mile and half away, Skeabost Hotel the another 5 miles Edinbane Inn featuring live music twice a week and delicious food and the 3rd Edinbane Lodge a 10 course tasting menu - very high end cuisine.
