Highly attractive and profitable bar and restaurant in a beautiful coastal location in the village of Kyleakin. The accommodation comprises a 3-bedroom owners flat, 7-bed bunk room and 2 staff bedrooms.
Kyleakin occupies a strategic gateway position at the entrance to the Isle of Skye, immediately after crossing the Skye Bridge from the mainland. This prime location ensures strong visibility and consistent passing traffic from visitors arriving on the island.
The village is also home to the historic ruins of Castle Moil, reinforcing its appeal as a visitor destination. Its position as the main access point to Skye provides a strong trading environment for hospitality and retail businesses, combining year-round local custom with substantial seasonal tourism.
The Property The original parts of Castle Moil Restaurant & King Haakon Bar date back to the early 1900s, with the section where the shop now operates forming the earliest part of the building. Further extensions were added in the 1960s and subsequently. The property is of predominantly modern construction, set beneath a pitched tiled roof, with some flat metal roofing to the rear.
Arranged over two floors, the property benefits from open sea and mountain views. All public trading areas are located on the ground floor, providing straightforward access for customers, including less able guests, and there is a disabled W.C. The business is well presented throughout and offers a fully established trading environment in a highly prominent waterfront setting.
Owner’s accommodation is located on the first floor and provides flexible space suitable for extended family use, staff accommodation, or potential holiday letting, subject to the necessary consents.
The shop unit is currently operated under lease. Extending to approximately 70m², it trades as a mixed convenience and gift shop and serves as a well-used village amenity. The lease provides an additional income stream while also generating footfall that benefits the restaurant and bar operations.

The main living area comprises three bedrooms, including two large double rooms and one single room, alongside a well-appointed family bathroom with a shower over the bath.
