Boutique hotel brand Sonas Collection has unveiled a £750k refurbishment across all three of its properties on the Isle of Skye, which saw each hotel get designed with an “elegant and modern twist”.
The boutique operator has worked in partnership with local suppliers and furniture designer Select Contract Furniture during the refurbishment to “embrace the comforts of authentic Highland style”.
As a result, each hotel now features log fireplaces and “elegant” furnishings such as bespoke leather headboards and hand-woven Harris tweed.
Renovations at the 150-year-old former Victorian hunting lodge Skeabost House Hotel include a new bright and colourful palette refresh that was inspired by the Isle of Skye’s natural environment.
Meanwhile, renovations at Toravaig House hotel include two additional deluxe rooms and a new nautical-inspired Chart Bar at Duisdale House Hotel.
Anne Gracie Gunn, owner of Sonas Collection, said: “Covid was a difficult time for everyone, particularly the hospitality industry, however we decided it was an opportunity to renovate after seeing an increasing demand for luxury, boutique accommodation on Skye.
“It was hugely important to showcase the wonderful Skye landscape through the interior design and furnishings, while also staying true to the hotels’ unique characters and delivering luxurious comfort to our guests.”
She added: “This is the largest refurbishment we’ve undertaken and I’m hugely proud of the transformation our three beautiful boutique properties have undergone.”
