STB Logo Link to more photosPersonally run by the friendly owners, Anne and Jeff Brandie, Givendale is a very comfortable property, in a peaceful residential area.  The bedrooms are well furnished and, thanks to the elevated location, all enjoy views beyond the nearby trees to the sea loch below, with the far shore being about a mile away. 
Breakfast is taken in a bright conservatory dining room and most guests visit the centre of Portree for their evening meal.  It’s about 15 minutes stroll and there is are numerous restaurants and hotels from which to make your choice. While it’s a level walk most of the way, there is a short incline just before you get back.
The main town of the Isle of Skye, Portree has local shopping facilities, such as news, groceries and hardware, as well as good quality gift shops.  There are quite a number of walks that can be taken around the town and harbour, where you have a reasonable chance of seeing seals, dolphins and maybe even otters.
Ferries to the Isle of Harris (Tarbert) are about 20 minutes drive and the Skye bridge is around 40-50 minutes.  The ferry to Mallaig, from Armadale, is about 40 miles distant.

Suggestion

Enjoy excellent walking in the immediate vicinity of Givendale Guest House, perhaps in Portree Forest, which you can reach without driving.  At the nearby Aros Centre, where there is a good range of gift shopping, you can also take a three hour guided tour around the island and its mountains..
