Mallaig is an interesting place for a couple of days...a working harbour and small town with some tourist facilities.The ferry to Skye leaves from here several times a day and you can take boat trips from Mallaig itself.There are a couple of short local walks which are worth doing.
There's several eateries including a pub up the hill that does great pub grub and delicious cider and a take away fish and chip place.
The arrival by train along a beautiful scenic railway line is memorable...I think 2 days is long enough here though!

If you need to catch a ferry it perfect,besides that there is really not much there,a few shops and restaurants,so once you have walked the town, see the old steam train before it departs and had some fish and chips your done.

Loved the harbour area which has a lot of activity.
Loved the harbour area which has a lot of activity. Excellent bakers nearby as well as fish and chips restaurants and a delightful pizzeria. Also The Horsebox just up the road from the harbour - lovely coffees and cakes.

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.
Very welcoming and friendly
remember to book in for dinner food is delicious so it can be very busy, But you can also get takeaways and go down to water front and see all the boats.
Perfect location for train and ferry we went over to skye on ferry in morning and come back at night to the hotel and stayed other night as it's better value for money.
The rooms are lovely and clean very comfortable and breakfast was delicious.
The location is great, a very short stroll to the small centre of Mallaig. There's parking for everyone right by your pod. The pod was very clean and comfortable, with everything like new. Small but well laid-out so nothing felt cramped. Lovely view of the coast sat on the front porch, even a view of the steam train going by!
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.
Very central location in Mallaig, next to the train station (with very few trains running so not a problem at all), the port and the cafes & restaurants. Our host was very welcoming and really friendly, offering to wash or dry our clothes as we had just completed a 3 day walk.
Harbor and sea views from our room.
Friendly staff.
Perfect location for trains and ferries.
Dog friendly.
The kitchen area with cooking facilities were a plus.
Affordable given its in central Mallaig where there's generally a shortage of (overpriced) accommodation.
A comfortable very spacious place that used to be a bank, in front of the ferry terminal with nice views of Mallaig harbor and in close proximity to nice restaurants, with all the facilities you could think of. The hosts were very friendly too!
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 😊
Really lovely staff, very helpful and informative. We had to book last minute due to a cancelled ferry service and they were very accommodating. Mallaig can be a quiet place out of season (like most places) which can be very nice.
In Mallaig, close to the Isle of Skye. The rooms were comfortable and very quiet. There were two good pubs within 3 minutes walking distance, as the hotel’s restaurant was closed, but their bar was open for a nightcap.
The location in "downtown" Mallaig was perfect. Everything was very walkable. The pod itself was super cosy and very clean. Small bathroom, obviously, but hot water and well appointed. I loved the heated floors.
I asked to change rooms (just because I wanted a bit lighter room) and was accommodated with no fuss. The staff here are exceptional and views amazing. Beautiful old hotel - a real pleasure to be there.
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!
This hotel is superb. We had a lovely, comfortable room with a sea view. The breakfast was great with a variety of options. This was the perfect base for exploring Mallaig and the surrounding area.
The proximity of the lovely, quiet, beaches was wonderful. Fantastic for a beach based holiday and very close to Mallaig, which has a good few things to offer for a peaceful holiday.
