    A perfect taste of what life on Skye is like

    The tiles around the shower need some descaling, but that's REALLY the only thing I could point out.

    The cottage is simply beautiful, and we felt welcome from the moment we stepped through the door. The beds were comfy, the rooms were clean, the shower was powerful, and I absolutely loved the kitchen, which was full of very good quality utensils (not that common to find sharp knives, and an espresso coffee machine in full working order!). Shout out to those wonderful couches in the living room, perfect for power naps! There is some parking space at the cottage, which was convenient. We enjoyed the peaceful and quiet location, close to Loch Snizort. The silence we found allowed us to relax as best as we could have. The location is also perfect to drive around Skye and see the best places in a reasonable amount of time: Portree is 10min away, The Quiraing and The Storr around 30-40min, Dunvegan Castle 20min, Talisker Distillery 40min... so good! We spent 5 days at the cottage, but sometimes we felt like we could have stayed there forever.

    The property was exactly as it was presented in the website advertisements. We were very happy with the property.

    The location was rural and quiet. The property met our needs and was well resourced in terms of it's amenities.

    No complaints.

    This is a great place to stay for those who want more privacy, space, and quiet than staying in Portree, while being a reasonable drive into town. More than enough room for a two, but could easily fit a family with a couple of children. The kitchen was well-stocked, and the electric fireplace in the salon was much appreciated after a chilly day out hiking. The host (Adam) was terrific and very helpful and responsive.

    One tiny thing it would have been great to have a travel cot. Fortunately our 2 year old managed with an inflatable bed rail but we did worry a little about him getting himself into mischief in the night!

    Location was great 10 mins drive to Portree for food shop etc also very close by many of Skye’s highlights. Beds were comfy properly was cozy and clean. Kitchen was really well equipped. Good communication from Adam re arrival and keys. WiFi great for evening binge watching.

    The door wasn't closing totally, so that air went through the entire time, also the lock did work easily so that we sometimes had a problem with closing it.

    Adam, the owner, made sure to come over and show us some tips and tricks, if something doesn't work. Also there were quite a few notes around the house to get along. There is quite a lot of room/space. And all the equipment we needed.

    The house has a few finishing touches that needs fixing, the bathroom door has dropped making it hard to close, there are some hook and nails left in the walls (one of them my mum caught her hand on), the door knobs are really close to the door edges which makes it a nuisance when shutting as you forget and catch your hand. Not major issues but something worth mentioning as it is a great little cottage

    The property was in a peaceful location with very friendly neighbours, it was extremely clean (no dust at all), the kitchen was well equipped for our stay and the living room was cosy with the fire. Loved the mini memorabilia!

    I won't tell a lie when I say that there was nothing that I didn't like or that we missed.

    It is a self-service apartment. We really felt at home in this wonderful little cottage. The apartment is exceptionally equipped with everything that you might need on your stay. The communication from the host was excellent. It is very nice and centrally located on the Isle of Skye from where each of the tourist attractions can easily be reached.
