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.

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.

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.
