North Light Studio

Having been running for over 40 years, this immaculately kept crofter’s cottage has become a real institution on the Isle of Skye. Situated at the edge of Loch Dunvegan, the area's windswept beauty has always been a huge part of the appeal, as are the characterful, low-beamed interiors where contemporary art hangs on exposed stone walls. Unsurprisingly, in an area with such bountiful produce, the menu keeps its focus local, with seafood from nearby waters among the highlights. Spacious, split-level bedrooms are stylishly understated and the residents’ lounge has a great outlook.
