1 bed 1 bath Guest House
Turnkey hospitality business near Portree with panoramic island views.
Licensed 4-bedroom B&B with strong online reviews and repeat business
Panoramic rural views overlooking Skye’s landscapes
Turnkey operation; currently below VAT threshold and rates relief applies
Detached garage with conversion potential (subject to consents)
115m² agricultural building with power and secure full-height access
Only two of four rooms currently let — clear income growth opportunity
Agricultural building lacks water and heating; annex has basic corrugated roof
EPC D (66); rural location means reliance on Portree for many services
Set on the Isle of Skye with sweeping panoramic views, this licenced B&B is offered as a turnkey hospitality business with immediate income and clear growth potential. The property combines comfortable guest accommodation, a detached garage with conversion potential and a large agricultural building with mains power and secure access — useful for storage, workshop use or alternative commercial purposes.
Trading below its full potential, the current owners operate only two of four guest rooms, leaving obvious upside by reopening all bedrooms, extending trading year-round, or converting the garage/annex into additional letting or owner accommodation. The business operates below the VAT threshold and is currently eligible for 100% rates relief, supporting lower operating costs for a new operator.
Buyers should note some practical drawbacks: the agricultural building has no water or heating installed; the single-storey annex has a corrugated roof and basic construction that may require maintenance or improvement; and the house’s EPC is D (66). The location is rural and remote — excellent for visitors seeking scenery but requiring travel to services in Portree.
This offering will suit an investor or hands-on owner-operator seeking an established Skye hospitality business with land-based versatility and tangible scope to increase revenue through fuller occupation, marketing, or modest capital works.
