The Experience
Imagine, and enjoy one of the finest small luxury hotels in Skye. Skye is a magical place and we present to you what we think and hope is a quite magical, fitting hotel experience.
At Toravaig House Hotel, we keep the premises very much like a country house hotel with emphasis on peace and relaxation. Enjoy crackling open fires and the home-cooking prepared by our two great chefs. We have the very best of Scottish produce, all locally produced and sourced both in fish, seafood and meats. We do duck, venison, lamb and beef steak, along with halibut, fish, sea bass, scallops and lobster.
We feature a full Scottish breakfast with the famous Isle of Lewis black pudding from the outer Hebrides. Of course, also bacon and eggs, smoked haddock and smoked kippers, all from the sea shore around the Isle of Skye. We also have a continental breakfast with fresh fruit and croissants.
Actually, we do anything that we think our visitors would like. We offer a lovely oatmeal porridge, which is a traditional Scottish dish, served with Demerara sugar or honey and cream. If anyone would like a little shot of whisky on their porridge, then they are very welcome, even though it’s the morning.
As you might expect, we are always making improvements to Toravaig. We have seven lovely double rooms and two twin rooms, and are busy working on canopies for all the beds, which will make them very special indeed.
Each bedroom is named after an island such as Eriskay, Oronsay and Vatersay. And our lovely new 36-foot yacht offers sensational yacht trips consisting of day cruises around western Scotland. The day trips will be for a duration of seven hours and we will provide a lunch for our residents on the trip. We feel that our residents would like to come back to the hotel after the cruise and sit by the fire for pre-dinner drinks before dinner.
Toravaig is also popular for weddings with the actual ceremony taking place at a castle or castle ruin and the meal and accommodations at the hotel. We receive many overseas bookings for weddings. Anyone interested could contact Anne for more information. |
