Balmacara Mains is a lovingly restored guest house in a peaceful lochside location.
Surrounded by mature forest with panoramic views over Loch Alsh and Skye, the Mains is an ideal location for exploring this glorious corner of the North West Highlands.
Our south-facing rooms, each with private access and stunning sea views, are finished to a high standard, with Egyptian linen, huge beds and spacious stone tiled bathrooms.
