Loch Eyre Shepherd Hut is situated on the grounds of Loch Eyre House in-between Portree and Uig, which makes a great location to tour the island, or for a stop over en route to the Outer Isles. Traditionally a shepherd hut was a dining room, bedroom, sitting room and storeroom all rolled into one. Designed to provide the shepherd with practical and durable accommodation. Our Shepherd Hut is equipped with it’s own wood burning stove, and has electric power to make your stay comfortable. It’s position affords stunning views over Loch Eyre and beyond. The hut is tastefully decorated and provides the ideal cosy retreat for your visit to Skye where you can rest and enjoy some privacy. **THE PRIVATE SHOWER ROOM IS SITUATED 30 METRES FROM THE HUT INSIDE THE GUEST HOUSE**
Originally from Glasgow I have now stayed on the Isle of Skye for the last number of years. I can provide you with places to visit not always on the tour guide books...
Loch Eyre Shepherds Hut is situated between Portree and Uig (approximately 11 minute drive to both), making it an ideal location for exploring the Isle of Skye. There are buses around 3 times per day which pass at the bottom of the street, which go to Portree or Uig, allowing you to connect easily for your ongoing journey. (check schedule as it is subject to change).
