We like everything about Canowindra! This was our favorite B&B of our two week trip around Scotland. The property is first class, and Jack and Georgie are wonderful host! Georgie, thank you so much for the wonderful Takeaway breakfast you made up for us on our last morning there. We are sorry we had to leave early and miss your wonderful hot breakfast, but we had an early ticket for the ferry and had to leave early in time to get to our scheduled departure.  We hope your daughter enjoyed a fantastic 10 year birthday!
Hot water was not working well the first night we were there. We reported to Jack and he fixed so it was working well the second morning. Otherwise, everything was wonderful. Not a complaint just noting because of how quickly Jack took care of a problem he was not previously made aware of !

I went up to Skye with an old friend who had never been to Scotland before to show her one one of the beautiful places in Scotland, do some hiking, and relax. And Canowindra was a fabulous place to relax. The owners are such sweet people! The breakfasts were great! I love an excellent classic Scottish breakfast. And our room was one of the nicest I've stayed in on holiday for years. I could live there! And after some good hikes during the day the wonderful clawfoot bathtub really helped.
This is not critical... It would be amazing if Canowindra were within walking distance of downtown Portree so one would not have to drive to go out to dinner.

An absolutely beautiful B&B. Very, very tastefully decorated with lots of thoughtful extras. The whole place was stylish and welcoming, and breakfast was not only delicious and plentiful, but also beautifully presented. We cannot recommend it highly enough.
There was nothing that we would change. It was by far the best place that we have stayed in on our tour around Scotland.

The co-owners, Georgie and Rick are definitely in the correct business. It's clear they enjoy people, and made us feel cared for. Communication with them was excellent, both prior to, and during our stay. Years ago, when Georgie was fully booked, she took it upon herself to find alternate accommodations. We were so grateful that we simply had to stay with her this time around. We're so glad we did! The layout of Canowindra allows guests to feel at home in public and semi-public spaces without feeling they might disturb the owners. Still, we found them to be so incredibly responsive whenever we needed them. Of particular note were the super-comfy beds. We do not fall asleep easily, but most definitely did at Canowindra. We had three of the four rooms, and all of us slept so well! We visited four properties on our trip, and this was far and away the most comfortable! At breakfast, guests could choose from a variety of offerings. The owner, Georgie, was both attentive and unobtrusive. She made sure we had everything we wanted, and was also available to answer any questions we had about our day's activities. We greatly benefited from her years of knowledge about Skye.

If you ever need to find a place like heaven, be sure to visit Georgie and Rick. They are such lovely hosts and on top of that, it is the best B&B I have EVER visited. Luxurious, quiet setting, all the amenities you’d want and away from the busy tourist center but not too far (5mins/car). Breakfast system is also good as you get to choose the evening before what to eat. That way, you don’t have to get up to a buffet. It’s a win-win situation for both guest and host I suppose. I recommend her selfmade granola ! A plethora of books are to be found in the hallway that will guide you on Skye. Booklets which you can lend by the way. If that isn’t enough, you can ask the hosts for advice. Over 100 DVD’s can be chosen to watch a movie. You can sit in the couch in the breakfast room or the sofa on the second floor.
The beds were good but you can’t beat our beds at home :-) I guess choices had to be made to keep the majority of visitors happy. No problems in my back though so overall still okay.

clean, comfortable, quiet, fabulous location.
We arrived during a rare heatwave, and the room didn’t have a fan. it got a bit warm in the room. Opening the windows did help, but there wasn’t much breeze so it took a while to cool down. No door or curtain in the shower so water splashed into the bathroom. Loved everything else about the stay, and would definitely stay there again.

From the moment we arrived everything was geared towards making us feel at home. The room was very comfortable and well furnished as was the en suite bathroom. Just loved the fluffy white towels! Breakfasts were a joy with a great variety available. Georgie's special mix granola was a treat. Canowindra is about 5 minutes by car from Portree and sits in it's own grounds. I would recommend this establishment to anyone looking for a base from which to explore Skye.
I couldn't fault anything.

Beautiful newly refurbished room and bathroom. Incredible shower and bath, and excellent choice of coffee/tea, better than the standard ones provided. Had one of my best night's sleep ever. Breakfast filling, delicious and freshly made. The home made granola was superb!! They have two beautiful friendly dogs and a kitty. The host was also kind enough to give me a list of accessible accommodations on Skye for my paraplegic partner. She didn't have to spend the time and effort for it and I do appreciate it.
Would be useful, for hikers especially, to have an option for breakfast a bit earlier than 8 - sometimes for certain walks it's best to start early on. But that's quite minor!

Canowindra is an excellent B&B at the edge of Portree. Our host Georgie was lovely and helpful. Our room was spacious and perfectly furnished. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was modern, luxurious with a rain shower and a soaking tub. The location is just outside of the town center (about 3 minute drive) and is very quiet. They have ample parking for all guests. Georgie's breakfasts were made-to-order and delicious.
Everything was perfect! No complaints about anything. Highly recommended.

Georgie and Rick were very welcoming and took such good care of us during our four-night stay. Rooms were beautifully appointed and beds were very comfortable. Bath tubs were magnificent and we loved the walk-in showers Breakfast was outstanding and served in a beautiful room. So quiet at night as it is located just outside busy and noisy Portree. Bindi the cat filled in for our pets we left at home. Highly recommend Canowindra!!
There is nothing we would change.
