What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Less a hotel than a restaurant with rooms, Edinbane Lodge makes its home on the Isle of Skye, in a hunting lodge that dates back to 1543.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
The crofting village of Edinbane sits between Portree and Dunvegan, right beside the working kilns of Edinbane Pottery.
The rooms
Bedrooms combine Scottish wool tartans with dark wood, and bathrooms have freestanding cast-iron soaking tubs and monsoon showers.
Edinbane Lodge Restaurant
A woodburner warms the timber-beamed dining room, where dinner unfolds as a multi-course tasting menu of island ingredients.
At the table
Illuminated shelves hold whiskies and spirits behind a counter set with glass decanters and cocktail coupes.
How it began
The 1543 coaching inn sat derelict until Skye-born chef Calum Montgomery and his family restored its stone structure.
