Hotel Eilean Iarmain, also known as Isle Ornsay Hotel, is small and privately owned, situated on a sheltered bay in the south of Skye, with expansive views over the Sound of Sleat to the hills of Knoydart on the mainland.
People have been coming here for over a hundred years, drawn by a love for the landscape of this Hebridean island, its geology, botany, ornithology, history, culture and language. Writers and historians, poets and artists come for inspiration and knowledge. Others come for the peace of the hills and sea.
"The Gaelic Inn by the sea"
We are open all year, enabling visitors to experience Skye in all seasons. Winter can be particularly cosy, when sunlit days make long shadows on the hills, and there are evenings by log fires, often with music and Gaelic song.
Environmental tours, boat and pony trips, trout fishing, stalking and shooting can be arranged in advance. We are looking forward to seeing you.
