LOCATION
The Trotternish peninsula in the north of Skye is one of the most spectacular part of the island with the Trotternish Ridge dominating the landscape and offering some of the best hillwalking and widespread views of the island. From the Quiraing in the north to the Old Man of Storr further south this is a place filled with mysticism and romance, standing stones and cairns. The area is rich in flora and fauna –whilst walking the hills or woodland trails you will find many species of flowering plants and ferns and may sight golden eagles and even an elusive corncrake. The Hotel is located in the quiet and peaceful setting of North Duntulm, providing a base from which to explore the varied landscapes of Skye. Portree, the islands capital, is approx. 23 miles south and offers a wide range of facilities, shops, supermarket, cafes, cinema, theatre, galleries, swimming pool & leisure facilities.
PREMISES
Built in approximately 1860 of traditional stone construction, the hotel has been extended and modernised to provide accommodation set over 3 levels. Most of the public rooms have superb views across The Minch towards the Outer Isles. The bar has an open fire.
BUSINESS
The hotel has been run by the current owner since August 2006 during which time some upgrading has been carried out. The 27 Letting Bedrooms (accommodating approximately 50 guests), are set over 3 floors and are flexibly laid out, typically with 10 Doubles, 7 Twins, 7 Singles and 3 Family Rooms. Trade has come from a mix of coach parties, families and small private parties visiting the hotel for walking and fishing breaks. It has also been used as a wedding venue. The public bar is frequented by many locals and the dining room caters for approximately 40 covers. The business runs with a full hotel licence. The size and location of Duntulm Castle Hotel offers a great opportunity to further develop the business. Potential purchasers are invited to view the website www.duntulmcastle.co.uk.
