What they say

Coruisk house is a stunning set of 4 cottages that have been perfectly designed with cozy evenings in mind. We stayed in An Nead which their dog friendly cottage which also has a ramp at the entrance for accessibility, but they also have one of the cottages with an electric car charging point so there is a cottage for all types of travellers. The hosts are a super charming and friendly couple who will indulge in a little chat should you accept. Now the main highlight was the food. The four course menu on offer is just exceptional, I don’t think you will find anything in the Isle of Skye that will top this. I will note that the menu is not tailored towards vegetarians so bare this in mind. Also the cocktails on offer which are slight twists on well known classic are just beautiful with fresh ingredients used all round.

Our favourite stop over from our 8 day NC500 trip. Claire and Ian run a amazing hotel. With a bonus of some dogs if you want to see them. Breakfast was 10 / 10 and was the best breakfast on the trip. The range of food available, quality of ingredients and overall style was perfect. Room with a view, a super comfy bed and great shower what more could you want. Bonus of super fluffy robes Shame we only booked 1 night.

Thank you Claire and Ian. A perfect hideaway to relax and enjoy the wonderful surroundings. We thoroughly appreciated Ian's perfectly planned menus and totally delicious meals. It was a real treat. Our room was gorgeous and we loved the extra detail to make it memorable for us.

We stayed in the Tigh Mairi self-catering cottage of this property and we honestly loved everything about it! It truly captures the essence of what you would imagine a stay on Isle of Skye to be. The cottage is fully equipped with everything you'd need, including having a modern kitchen with all the equipment necessary. The rest of the cottage is beautifully finished, clean and new. The area around is what you'd expect typically, nice for walks and beautiful scenery. The hosts were easy to contact when needed, friendly, and welcomed us with some local goodies which was a very nice gesture.

We wanted to visit Skye but didn’t want to feel surrounded by tourists. Luckily a Scottish friend recommended Coruisk House, which was perfect. He promised “remote, rugged, quiet heaven” at Coruisk with Michelin-caliber food, and that’s exactly what we enjoyed. We’ve both worked in restaurants for years and we’re quite critical, but Iain exceeded our expectations, offering genuinely stunning food that reflects and respects Scotland – everything is locally sourced, cooked with incredible care and skill, and presented beautifully. I will dream about the hake with grilled squid, served alongside pheasant mousse with squid tartare! I’m the daughter of a lobsterman and Iain’s lobster bisque was far and away the best I’ve ever had. The wine list is really thoughtfully curated – Clare and Iain know several of the wine producers – and there was a lovely range of prices and wonderful choices. Our room and the entire house was sparkling clean, cozy, and chic – from the homemade candy to the dreamy linens to the fireplace, Coruisk House wrapped us up in warm hospitality and gave us three lovely days, even when it was pouring outside. Clare gave us wonderful advice for the rest of our trip, too. Our Scottish friend said that “staying with Iain and Clare reminded me that pairing beautiful accommodations, off the beaten track locations, and world-class dining is the way I want to live,” and if any part of you thinks you might want to stay at Coruisk House, believe me: you do.
