Location of property, overlooking sea and small isles, quiet and within short walking distance to harbour, bars and restaurants. Layout of Skye studio was well equipped and had everything we needed for a self catering 5 days, decor was beautiful clean and bed very comfortable. It was exactly everything we hoped it would be. Hot tub was great and a lovely way to enjoy an evening after a day of walking.

Gorgeous part of the Highlands with good transport links !
Gorgeous part of the Highlands with good transport links ! Ferries and Trains ! The train journey is spectacular and worth every Penny and minute of the 5 hours from Glasgow or 2 hours plus from Fort William … I’m not a train spotter by any means or a Harry Potter fan but this journey as always been on my travel bucket list and did not disappoint!
Good bar / restaurant … great value great food at the top of the hill and friendly locals !! Be aware as you’d expect not a lot open in the depths of winter!! But enough and how I personally like it !!

Mallaig is at its heart an old fishing town which has seen that part of its self-image eroded by the economics of fisheries across the land. Meanwhile it has become popular because of the steam railway and Harry Potter. Though this has improved the economy it feels like the place begrudges this new found dimension and would prefer to revert to its quieter fish-focussed past. Some of the restaurants feel like they are profiteering - £11 for 4 tiny pieces of salt and pepper squid slapped on the table is indicative. Overpriced dishes and underwhelming service. Is it me or do the staff in the hostelries and shops project an air that says they've had enough and want to scuttle off for their own vacation? They need to decide to up their game or move over for someone with more stamina, energy and understanding of customer service. Not somewhere for which I will hold fond memories. The exception to all this is the host of the pod who was bright and cheerful and could not be more helpful.

Plenty of places to eat.
Plenty of places to eat. Mallaig gets busy when the steam train(think Harry Potter) from Fort William arrives.
Surprisingly, many shops were closed on Saturday morning.
Great smoked fish and shellfish from Andy Race fish merchant, but shop not open on Saturday.
Ferry trips to Eigg, Rum, Skye and Knoydart(loch Nevis)

It has all the bustle of a busy ferry and fishing port.
It has all the bustle of a busy ferry and fishing port. It has a huge number of cafes, restaurants and tourist facilities. Great rail and road communications. Lovely circular walk above the town - great views.
Pod was exactly as described, very clean and comfortable. Very welcoming and nothing too much trouble. Excellent facilities, towels, washing up bits, tea, coffee, sugar and milk in the fridge, if you weren’t prepared and brought it with you. Location is very peaceful and relaxing, close for ferries to the isles and train to Fort William. Having been to Mallaig many times it never disappoints, gorgeous views out to sea and watching the Jacobite steam train roll by when you’re just chilling by the pod.
Donald was very welcoming on arrival .As we got there very late for check in time and
understanding. He also gave us a room upgrade which was lovely of him. As he didn't know this but,
we were on are honeymoon and on are last stay in Scotland which made it special thank you.
Seaview is a lovely place to stay and 10/10 for our room. Thank you.
Overall, a nice vacation rental and I would recommend others to stay there. It was super easy to collect the keys when we arrived in the lock box. The shower was amazing and I loved the view out the window. The location close to the ferry to go to the Isle of Skye was great for our road trip around Scotland.
everything was perfect. Good location, friendly hostess, hostess very helpful and answered all questions. I walked from Mallaig to Glenfinnan Viaduct and the Isle of Skye, so perfect base. I was even allowed to leave my things there after checking in, which was very nice for me. Pure recommendation!
The view from the room was lovely. The room was spacious, the bed was very comfortable and the shower was brilliant. The location of the hotel was absolutely perfect, providing beautiful views of the islands and mountains of Skye and Rum whilst also being very close to the main town centre.
The hotel was in a great location as Mallaig is not very large. Very close to the ferry terminal and all other restaurants.
It had probably the best restaurant in town and great staff. The breakfasts were also wonderful and made to order eggs prior to the ferry to Skye.
Perfect size and location, had everything we needed. They even provided oat milk for tea when I messaged to say we were vegan! We only stayed a few nights but feel like we got a lot out of Mallaig - and would definitely come back 😊
The location was incredible - right in the middle of Mallaig next to the port and all the restaurants. It was fun that the flat is an old bank - it gave it additional charm! It was such a comfortable place to stay in Mallaig.
Locaed in the centre of Mallaig, close to shops, pubs and restaurants, also train station and ferry terminal.
Room was basic, with clean bedding and heating that works very well.
Would stay again!
Despite the problems of having the work going on to refurbish the fire damage, our stay was not compromised in any way.
The hotel is well placed for all amenities as well as the ferry ⛴.
Quaint stay in Mallaig since we wanted to catch the early morning ferry. The rooms are small but clean, with all necessities available! Pub food was decent, with really good desserts :)
100 meters from the ferry terminal.
Rooms, bathrooms and kitchen were clean.
All the restaurant and pubs of Mallaig are within a 3 min walk range from the place.
Mallaig is lovely, scenery is absolutely amazing. The owners were really nice and welcoming. I had a very comfortable stay. Clean and tidy nice and cozy!
