Rooms for kayakers
If you are planning to do a course or Paddle Skye, we offer budget friendly accommodation in the house next door. It has 3 bedrooms, which can be booked individually. Find out more here.
General Accommodation
There are numerous options for staying in Sleat and South Skye. Sleat is a real gem, also known as the garden of Skye due to its rich flora. It is also much less crowded than other parts of Skye. Apart from sea kayaking, there are plenty of other things to do and see in this part of the island. Why not stay close by to make the most of your days around your kayaking trip.
Always try and book direct to save the accommodation provider commissions (often 20-30%!), and you may even get a discount. Keep the money on Skye, don’t feed big corporations.
