Thomas Telford Lettings - The Preachers Rest

Thomas Telford Lettings takes its name from the prolific Scottish engineer who planned the hamlet of Stein for the British Fisheries Society in 1790 and oversaw the building of The Old Church and adjacent The Old Manse.

Over the last two years The Old Church - The Preachers Resy, has been painstakingly restored and renovated. Contemporary accommodation within a historic setting we believe Telford would be proud of. Externally the Old Church, byre and gardens reflect the original plans but inside awaits a magical combination of contemporary living and eclectic design.

Staying at the Old Church is not for the faint hearted. Art works, antiques, and interior finishes collected over many years combine to lift the spirit. Its quirky and somewhat unorthodox characteristics are for those looking for something very different.

A getaway where you will be consumed by local history, arts and culture. While the ‘The Preachers Rest’ at The Old Church are out of the ordinary, they provide a convenient base to relax in luxury and explore explore the magic of Skye.

The property has views that overlook Loch Bay, private garden areas and various outdoor seating areas to enjoy alfresco dining and the famous sunset views of Skye.

The Preachers Rest is licensed to accommodate a maximum of 6 persons. The adjacent Priests Nest can accommodate 4 persons allowing for a party of 10 in both properties subject to availability. The Preachers Rest is available to let for a minimum of 2 night stays.
