The Green Room is a perfect place for a get away. The journey there over the Bealach Ratagan is spectacular - amazing views! With great views over to Skye, The Green Room is the ideal location to explore the area or chill out (reading with a glass of wine and the log burner on - perfect!) ) It had everything we needed and we had a really great few days there (loved the crockery!) The Glenelg Inn does great food and is an easy five minute walk from the house - perfect! The village shop is well stocked too. We’d love to come back sometime - loved it!!

The Green House is a romantic hideaway for two – a private cabin by the sea, overlooking the Isle of Skye. Rustic and charming with a wood burning stove, four poster bed, and a wood-fired Finnish hot tub. From here, you can hear waves lapping against the pebble beach and watch clouds formed by the Atlantic Ocean roll over blue-tinted hills. This experience would suit independent and intrepid folk who feel comfortable with wheelbarrows and building fires!
I'm a landscape architecture student. The Green House was founded by my late father: a wild, generous, and irrepressible man, who's favourite colour was green – hence the colour and namesake of the Green House!
Glenelg is a peninsula overlooking the Isle of Skye. It is a place that feels a world apart, surrounded by mountains and scattered with hidden coves. This remote community is steeped in history, and has a communal and enterprising spirit. The easiest way to get to Glenelg is by car. Although, there are bus services from Inverness and Glasgow that take you to Shiel Bridge, from where you can arrange to have a BUG taxi (Bus Users' Group taxi) pick you up and take you to your desired destination. Once you are in Glenelg, you can hire a bike to get around.
