Trotternish Bed & Breakfast is a rare, fully licensed and profitable guest house on the Isle of Skye, trading from a five-bedroom detached property set in just over half an acre. The business benefits from a strong online reputation (Top 10 Isle of Skye on TripAdvisor; 4.9 TripAdvisor; 9.6 Booking.com) and established booking channels, delivering exceptional seasonal occupancy and solid short-term profits. The house is well presented, recently refreshed and equipped for hospitality with a commercial kitchen, breakfast room with wood-burning stove, and an honesty bar.
The site is practical for immediate operation and offers clear development potential: ample parking, an enclosed decrofted plot of 0.529 acres and space for additional accommodation (glamping pods, shepherd’s huts or self-catering) subject to planning consents. The property is architect-designed, built in 2007 and upgraded in 2010 and 2022 with recent new beds, carpets, emergency lighting, UPVC soffits/fascia and an EV charging point installed in 2024.
Buyers should note key operational and running-cost considerations. The property uses an oil-fired wet heating system (supplemented by electric panel heaters), drains to a private septic tank and takes water from an upgraded shared private supply. The EPC is D (60). Its remote Glenhinnisdal location gives outstanding scenery and seclusion but brings limited local services and travel distances to Portree and ferry links. Full accounting information is available to serious purchasers after viewing.
This opportunity suits a hands-on lifestyle buyer or investor seeking an established, turn-key hospitality business with strong reputational assets and room to expand. With scope to extend seasonality or add new accommodation, the business can be scaled to increase turnover and diversify guest appeal.
