Coruisk House Hotel

A truly magical place to stay on our honeymoon. Coruisk House has beautiful, bright rooms with stunning views. The food, both dinner and breakfast was incredible and has been a highlight of our trip to Skye. This is how you do hospitality. Elgol is a wonderful rural village. I adored the 13 mile single track drive through the most breathtaking scenery on Skye. Thank you so much Clare and Iain for your hospitality. We will be returning on our next trip to Scotland.

We stayed in the Tigh Mairi self-catering cottage of this property and we honestly loved everything about it! It truly captures the essence of what you would imagine a stay on Isle of Skye to be. The cottage is fully equipped with everything you'd need, including having a modern kitchen with all the equipment necessary. The rest of the cottage is beautifully finished, clean and new. The area around is what you'd expect typically, nice for walks and beautiful scenery. The hosts were easy to contact when needed, friendly, and welcomed us with some local goodies which was a very nice gesture.

A Luxurious, Romantic Wedding Stay at Coruisk House, Isle of Skye… We spent two unforgettable days at Coruisk House for our wedding, and it was the perfect setting for a truly special celebration. From start to finish, the experience was seamless — a rare combination of luxury, comfort, and deeply personal hospitality. The accommodation was outstanding. The rooms and the cottage ‘An Nead’ are beautifully styled, immaculately clean, and thoughtfully laid out. It’s the ideal retreat for travellers seeking a luxury, romantic escape on the Isle of Skye. The food was exceptional. The wedding dinner was a fine dining experience in itself. Clare and Iain, the owners, personally guided us through the menu choices and wine pairings for our day; matching each course with seasonal, locally sourced ingredients. They delivered four exquisite and delicious courses that were not only tailored to our preferences but also full of creativity and flavour. Clare also went above and beyond in helping us arrange aspects of our wedding that weren’t even her responsibility — her support was invaluable. Their calm, thoughtful approach turned what could have been a stressful few days into something joyful and relaxed. They anticipated our every need with care and attentiveness. If you’re looking for a unique boutique hotel with exceptional food, warm service, and luxury accommodation on the Isle of Skye, Coruisk House is a true gem. It’s the perfect destination for a romantic getaway, an intimate celebration, or a memorable stop on a Scottish Highlands journey. Thank you!!!

Really enjoyable stay here, as we had planned to take a boat trip to the small isles the following morning (Elgol harbour is well worth the visit too, beautiful). We were not expecting such a fantastic welcome, superb dinner and breakfast too. Ian and Clare have created a 5 star culinary destination, with very refreshing ease and charm. Dinner was delicious, one of the best meals we enjoyed on Skye.

My husband and I spent a few nights and a few meals with Coruisk House during our honeymoon, and I actually cannot properly express how influential it was to our entire trip. Clare and Iain (and Andy!) provide an unforgettable dining experience and we simply can’t stop talking about it. Next time we go, we’ll definitely plan to spend a full day in Elgol - we regret only stopping by the harbor for a picture the morning we left. We had so many lovely experiences during our trip, but Coruisk House is one of the ones that makes us want to return.

We wanted to visit Skye but didn’t want to feel surrounded by tourists. Luckily a Scottish friend recommended Coruisk House, which was perfect. He promised “remote, rugged, quiet heaven” at Coruisk with Michelin-caliber food, and that’s exactly what we enjoyed. We’ve both worked in restaurants for years and we’re quite critical, but Iain exceeded our expectations, offering genuinely stunning food that reflects and respects Scotland – everything is locally sourced, cooked with incredible care and skill, and presented beautifully. I will dream about the hake with grilled squid, served alongside pheasant mousse with squid tartare! I’m the daughter of a lobsterman and Iain’s lobster bisque was far and away the best I’ve ever had. The wine list is really thoughtfully curated – Clare and Iain know several of the wine producers – and there was a lovely range of prices and wonderful choices. Our room and the entire house was sparkling clean, cozy, and chic – from the homemade candy to the dreamy linens to the fireplace, Coruisk House wrapped us up in warm hospitality and gave us three lovely days, even when it was pouring outside. Clare gave us wonderful advice for the rest of our trip, too. Our Scottish friend said that “staying with Iain and Clare reminded me that pairing beautiful accommodations, off the beaten track locations, and world-class dining is the way I want to live,” and if any part of you thinks you might want to stay at Coruisk House, believe me: you do.

Everything about our stay was perfect. The hotel is in a beautiful location and Clare and Iain do an amazing job. The dinner was really, really special. It's a splurge but well worth it. We highly recommend this lovely spot!

What a lovely place in a fab location. Iain ,Claire and Grouse were fantastic hosts very welcoming and friendly we felt at home immediately. We stayed in the cream iron beds tead room with the quirky low ceiling it was beautiful very relaxing with good views. The food was fantastic very imaginative menu with bold natural flavours showcasing the great fresh food available and Iains fantastic cooking. The homemade bread by Claire and Iains homemade granola were especially delicious. We had pre dinner drinks the cocktail was very nice. We had a great stay and really enjoyed the relaxing vibe running through the house. Thank you all . The highlight of my visit to Syke

What ever you heard negative about Scottish dishes, forget it. It's hard to find a bad place in Scotland, unless you pop in a trashy chippie or similar. On the Isle Of Skye it's almost impossible. Good food is all around and the Coruisk House is just one great example. Originally we wanted to stay in their guest rooms, but it's booked out quite in advance. So we chose to dine and were not disappointed. Amazing local, fresh food and perfect for seafood lovers. We had a three course dinner with various fish from salmon to lobster, great local beers and a fantastic dark & white chocolate brownie for finish. The atmosphere is great, servers nice and attentive. If you stay a bit outside, it's quite a drive there, but it's worth doing it, also for the stunning landscape to enjoy.
