Find all hotels by Independent in Duirinish

"We had a wonderful week at the Backrest. The house is beautifully located and the views from the living room and from the deck at the front are fantastic. We found everything really clean, and very comfortable, with all the items needed to make us feel 'at home'. We were lucky to be there on really lovely sunny days, but I think it would be great also in colder times and promises to be a very cosy place. Mette was very helpful and responsive when we had any questions ahead of arriving, and all the information we got was accurate. We would definitely look to stay again at the Backrest. We travelled with our cat, who seemed to be very content and quickly found all the right places to settle down for long sleeps, allowing us to get out and about. We really appreciated being able to bring him along!"

"Great breakfast and very friendly staff. Easy walk into Portree for restaurants and bars, plus convenient onsite parking. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but somewhat small with limited luggage space. "

"The staff was wonderful, the food amazing and the room clean and beautiful!"

"Beautiful views, lovely stay"

"The cutest hotel ever! Everything was fantastic! The staff was great and extremely helpful and friendly! The food was the best food I had my whole trip in Scotland! I loved it so much I ended up staying an extra night here!"

"The room was wonderful, with a lovely view; it was in the lodge, so a bit of a walk to the restaurant. We ate dinner at the hotel restaurant; we enjoyed our food very much, especially the seeded rolls. (We were disappointed that the rolls weren't available at breakfast.)"
