Our glass is half full here at Off the Hill B&B and there seems to be a very small light at the end of the tunnel.
We have had some stunning, but cold, weather over the last few weeks and now the Cuillins and the mountains on the mainland are snow-capped like a cake with its dusting of icing sugar. Maisie and I would have loved to have shared this with people but there will always be next winter - the seasons and mother nature are one constant we can rely on.
But things are looking promising, subject to the lifting of restrictions here in Scotland, we will be open again this summer and we have been buoyed by the flurry of bookings we have received in the last month for staycations at Off the Hill B&B from May through to late October in 2021.
Just like last year’s “short and socially distanced” season there are the same precautions in place to maintain our Good to Go credentials and show you we are COVID19 safe – I will don a facemask, and request you do the same for your arrival and whilst moving around the house, there is still a limit on guest numbers (only 2 per room, so a max of 4 all together) and separate tables at breakfast, along with limited room service & a few less amenities in the rooms – but otherwise the B&B is just as you would hope – friendly, cosy and a home-from-home for you trip to Skye.
So if you are thinking a staycation is your favoured option this year, think of holidaying on Skye and come share a piece of the good life at Off the Hill B&B
Stay safe
Elaine & Maisie xx
