The space
Skye Eco Bells is a unique Eco Glamping site on the Isle of Skye. We only have 3 Cosy Cabins and 1 Bell tent to keep the site small so you can enjoy some tranquility and time to relax and unwind whilst having a great base to explore all of Skye.
The site has no electricity or WiFi so you can really disconnect from the outside world and reconnect with the important things.......each other and the stunning natural landscape around you. Lighting is provided by rechargeable lights and candle power.

Guest access
You will have your own fully furnished Cosy Cabin which sleeps 2 in a double bed. Each cabin also has it's own fire pit to enjoy outdoor fires and BBQ's and sit under the stars with a drink or 2! We provide your first basket of firewood but if you need more there is firewood available to buy on site. You will also have access to The Hub, a social camp kitchen that is fully kitted out for all your cooking needs and furnished in a cosy style with candle lanterns and a wood burning stove for those cooler evenings. The Shack provides additional cooking/eating space and is convenient for making that morning cup of coffee to start your day of exploring.
The site also has a unique greenhouse shower and composting toilet that fit in with our eco credentials and reduce our impact upon the environment.

During your stay
We try to meet all our guests at some point during their stay but as we have a young family and other jobs, we may not be able to meet you on arrival. So we operate a self check-in system : When you arrive at Eco Bells please park sensibly, without blocking in other guests cars. You will find a noticeboard with details of your cabin and a map of the site. In your cabin you will find an information book about Eco Bells, things to do and places to eat. Either Scott or Nadia will be on site at some point every day so if you have any questions feel free to ask. If we are not about, our telephone numbers are in the information book. If we are about when you arrive, we will give you a tour of the site and answer any questions you might have.

Other things to note
It will take approximately 6 to 7 hours to drive from Glasgow or Edinburgh and at least 3 hours from Inverness or Fort William. Inverness or Fort William are the last opportunity to shop at a large supermarket. We don't live at the campsite so we operate a self check-in system which you will be sent the details of a few days before your visit.
