Best place by far that I stayed at on my trip to the UK. The host was wonderful, the breakfasts were very good and the room was big, clean, comfortable and all the necessary amenities. Good place to explore Skye from. Definitely recommended!

    “Beautiful breakfasts that kept us going through a full day of walking. Lovely friendly host (Sue). Spacious room and bathroom, sitting room, all spotlessly clean. I think this is one of the best home accommodation places we have ever stayed”

Sue and Warren Wood
Dunshee stands in a south facing mature garden in a quiet settlement of Roskhill, on the banks of the river Roskhill. The garden is visited by a wide selection of songbirds. While sitting in the garden on a sunny day, you will hear the river Roskhill, the breeze rustling the leaves or the sound of a curlew calling as it flies across the moor. On clear nights in the winter you can see a beautiful starry sky (Dark Sky) and occasionally the Aurora Borealis on cold frosty nights. The suites are cosy and warm and very well equipped for all of your needs.
Sue and Warren have been providing hospitality for over 20 years. They have welcomed guests from all over the world in their wonderful accommodation with delicious breakfasts.
Dunshee is set in a small settlement just off the main road. We have three of the main attractions close by, Dunvegan castle, Neist point and the Coral beaches. Dunvegan is 2 miles away with two restaurants, shops, petrol station, garage, post office, bakery, takeaway, and several cafes. We are surrounded by mountains and our wonderful coastline. We have a wide variety of wildlife such as red deer, sea eagles, seals and roe deer. Although Skye is a busy island there are still wild places where you can walk for hours without meeting anyone.
