Been to the Balloch a couple of times and it must be the best B&B I have stayed at in Scotland. Barbara and Donald are great hosts, very welcoming and good if you need information on what to do/where to go during your stay. Love the Isle of Skye in general although if you want a quiet drink DO NOT... More

Good Location (5 minutes to walk to Portree), Portree itself doesn´t offer that much but breakfast in the morning from Barbara and Donald is a good start in the morning. Perfect origin to explore the Isle of Skye.

Barbara and Donald were friendly, welcoming, great hosts. Our room was quiet, clean well looked after. Breakfast choice was good and well cooked and presented in the conservatory. The banana cake after after a day touring was a nice surprise! The bathroom was small yet adequate. Good location with an easy walk into town for evening meals.

Loved this little B&B - Barbara and her husband are great hosts, they make you feel just like family when you stay with them!. The rooms were very comfortable and the food was delicious for breakfast. The location is very nice as well, just outside of wonderful little Portree!

This place was really excellent, and so affordably priced for the luxurious accommodations. Barbara and her husband are lovely, and they will take good care of you. The rooms are great, and the spacious lounge is a really really nice touch that will make you feel right at home. And of course, breakfast was phenomenal. I will stay here everytime... More

Barbara is an excellent host and her friendliness and hospitality is most welcome. Balloch is easy to find on the main road leading into Portree with ample car parking and a very tidy and well kept exterior. The en-suite room I was given was ideal - clean and warm with wi-fi available. There was also a couple of slices of... More

Excellent. I stayed here with my family during the summer. The husband and wife team who run this B&B are warm, friendly and professional. The breakfasts are quality and always freshly cooked to order -- no lukewarm reheated food here! The rooms are clean and comfortable. The hosts even kindly washed some of our clothes free of charge.

We stayed here in Jan just after the New Year's holiday and we were the only guests at Balloch. We would definitely recommend this B&B to anyone who is looking for a place to stay in Portree. It's near enough to the town centre and is cozy and friendly. We were totally stuffed for breakfast and had a really comfortable... More

What impressed me most about this place was the fact that we drove into town on a rainy night, got confused and called them for directions, and Mr. Campbell, the owner, came out in his car to meet us and lead us there. I thought that was exceptionally kind! Everything else was as one would hope: clean, comfortable, and pleasant.... More
