Latest News

It is with a deep sense of regret that we announce the temporary closure of Hotel Eilean Iarmain due to the latest restrictions imposed in relation to COVID-19. The whole hotel will close from tomorrow, 23rd December until further notice.

At the moment we aim to re-open accommodation on 1st March, with the bar and food service hopefully re-opening before then, if permitted. We will, of course, post all information here and on our Facebook page @eileaniarmain

Anyone who has a booking for between now and March should make contact with our Reception Team to discuss their options. We will do our very best to help you reschedule your booking and for those who can’t we will arrange full deposit refunds.       01471 833 332 | hotel@eileaniarmain.co.uk

Our whisky shop, Pràban na Linne will be open until midday on 24th December for last minute shopping.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has supported us throughout this challenging year.

From us to you, we wish you all a very happy, safe and healthy Christmas wherever and however you are spending it. And here’s to better 2021!

Accommodation at Eilean Iarmain – We have taken the difficult decision to close our accommodation on the 4th of January until the beginning of March. We look forward to re-opening with a spring in our step then and full of hope that the worst of this situation is behind us. In the meantime, do be in touch if you would like to book for a spring break or a visit later in the year.

However, Am Pràban Bar remains OPEN as follows:

Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays 4.00pm – 10.00pm.
Whilst we plan to serve bar meals on these evenings between 5.00 and 8.00pm this is subject to change and we would therefore encourage diners to be in touch with us beforehand.

It was our pleasure to recently host Rosie Morton of Scottish Field magazine at Hotel Eilean Iarmain. Rosie was a wonderful guest who, like so many, was captivated by Eilean Iarmain’s location, charm, friendly staff, good food and all those extra activities we can offer guests – from tastings sessions of our award-winning Gaelic Whiskies and Gaelic Gins to unique insights into this special part of Skye with Scott MacKenzie, our headkeeper.
