Raasay House
About
On Isle of Skye, Raasay House sits on the island of Raasay at Raasay IV40 8PB, a setting reached by ferry from the Skye coast. It is known for welcoming guests on the quiet island of Raasay rather than on Skye itself, and first-time visitors should expect a stay that begins with a crossing. Guests have given it 4.5 out of 5 across 709 reviews, a strong record for a property on this small island. From Portree, Broadford or Sligachan, the drive to the Skye ferry crossing is straightforward, and the onward sail to Raasay is short.
Raasay House stands as a hotel on Raasay, and its own website is https://raasay-house.co.uk/. The 709 reviews behind the 4.5/5 score reflect steady guest traffic over time. Island shops and harbourside cafés sell smoked fish, island cheeses, fudge and bakery bread, which suits a self-catering day out. The house is one of the main places to stay on this small island.
Bookings and enquiries run through the venue's website. Rain falls throughout the year on British islands, and Atlantic gales are common in autumn and winter, so waterproof layers earn their place in any bag. Summer brings long daylight hours and crowded ferries, while winter sailings are often cancelled by weather.
Travelling around the Isle of Skye means using the road network that links Portree, Broadford, Dunvegan, Kyleakin, Armadale, Sligachan, Elgol and Staffin. British islands are reached by car ferries, passenger ferries and, in some cases, scheduled flights, so the crossing to Raasay is part of the trip rather than an afterthought. Allow extra time in winter, when sailings can be disrupted.
