Stay in This Remote Hotel in Scotland: The Cowshed Boutique Bunkhouse

After a long, moderately intense, somewhat grueling and long drive, Skye isn’t just something you can see for 5 minutes and then hit the road. You’re going to need a place to stay. And that’s where the cowsheds, a remote Scotlands hotel, comes in.
