Moorside Rooms

Sam was a great host. The morning breakfast was thoughtful and the accommodation was clean. We didn’t have many interactions with our host because everything was handled so well that there was nothing we needed that wasn’t already provided.

It’s easy to self check in. Sam left goodies in the room for a nice continental breakfast. We had a fridge in the room so it was easy to pick up some yogurt etc for an easy breakfast. Very clean and quiet. Slightly outside Portree so you need a car but parking is included and you would need a car in this area anyway. Highly recommend!

This was good value for a visit to Isle of Skye. A bit out of town, but that was not a problem for us.

Just a great weekend stay all round! Sam couldn't do enough for us, always helpful and kind. The entry/check-in and our room was well organized and very clean. The inroom continental breakfast was very nice with a large assortment of items. The evening carrot cake was unexpected and delicious. The twin beds were adequate and the comforters kept us warm. Thank you Sam. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Moorside is warm and comfortable. Samantha was very welcoming and the carrot cake an unexpected bonus. Facilities were good and the family room a good size -better than many hotels.

Just had a short stay. Should have been 2 nights but had to cut short due to the weather. Room was excellent. Immaculately clean. Breakfast was very welcome. The idea of a pre-prepared breakfast might not appeal to all but for us it was great. All available on arrival. The fridge in the room was also an asset, being very well used during our stay. Highly recommend this venue and hope others enjoy it as much as we did.

There was carpet in the room and the bathroom was inconvenient based on what I am accustom to in the USA. It had 2 separete faucets for hot and cold. The shower was too small to wash in and the water pressure was very light. Having said that, it was a fairly good value for the cost which was quite low.

I have never been treated so badly by a host in my entire life. After waking us up at 1 am by banging on the door, the host had no issue kicking us out of the room and letting us sleep in our car. We thought the property was dog friendly and being very confused/half asleep at that time of night, we asked the host if she could let us stay just for that one night while we find an alternative solution for the next couple of days. We even offered to pay an extra charge for the dog and to pay for the cleaning/inconvenience but she categorically refused. So there we were at 1am layering up and preparing to spend a cold night in the car. While we were in the car trying to sleep, the host kept looking through her window to check that we didn't sneak back into the room during the night (yes we saw you...). It was a genuine mistake on our part and we honestly thought the room was dog friendly which turned out not to be the case. We didn't mean any harm but the host's attitude toward us was absolutely shocking. The next day the host told us we could stay in the room (thanks, it's not like we paid £400 for it) but she was adamant that the dog had to stay in the car on his own overnight.. it didn't seem at all cruel or unsafe to her... Someone call RSPCA and get this woman blacklisted from pet care! She then admitted she was worried we would leave a bad review - no joke ? Unfortunately for us the island was completely booked up that week end so we had to spend 2 nights in the car before we found an alternative property owned by actual hosts who care about the welfare of their guests (animals included). The owner of moorside clearly does this for the money and didn't not refund us despite the fact that we barely used the room. Aside from that, the room is fine if you forget the carpet in the bathroom (eugh) and the lack of pressure in the shower. Sadly I can't comment on the comfort of the bed... The breakfast is only provided on the first day - as advertised- so it doesn't really make it a bed & breakfast; merely a bed & bre. (For us not even a bed). So if you don't mind giving your money to a heartless person who thinks it's ok to keep animals -and humans- locked up in the car, then you have found the right place.
