An apology
Hi - I must have been having an attack of the grumps last night when I reviewed your draft - my comments were not very welcoming, so apologies for that. I write about Scottish buildings myself, and don't want to put anyone off, so I'd like to offer you some more constructive feedback. Basically, we need a bit more sourcing, and a bit more content to explain what it is and where it is. We also don't put subjective opinions in Wikipedia's voice - so, we would need to say who says it's the best. You'd need at least two reliable sources giving it significant coverage. Even better would be to include a little bit about the building, which would help bolster its notability - if it's an historic building there might be some stuff in architectural guides.

I found the following sources which might help:
 * Review in the Telegraph (paywalled annoyingly)
 * mention in a BBC article - a pretty short mention unfortunately, but might be worth having
 * couple of mentions in National Geographic - also pretty short

Let me know if you want to pursue this, I think I might have an architectural guide covering Skye somewhere on the shelf. Girth Summit  (blether) 09:05, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi again - just to let you know, I had a look in the architectural guides that I have on the shelf, and I couldn't find anything - sorry. Girth Summit  (blether)  13:06, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
