Gorgeous cottage in a perfect location!
We absolutely loved our 10 days in Flora's amazing cottage. Check in was simple and hassie free. It was very clean on arrival and was really well equipped with everything you could need for cooking meals. All appliances worked well and were very easy to operate. Very comfy beds, fluffy towels and the shower is amazing! We were quite unlucky with the weather and needed to dry out wet coats and boots frequently so the log burner and clothes airer came in very handy. The cottage is situated in a perfect location to explore all of Skye. We were very sad to leave and we're definitely planning on coming back again one day.

Very nice croft house, in just the right location
The origins of this property are humble, and the outside appearance is too, but inside we found everything we needed and more. Nothing fancy, but clean and with good attention to detail, ranging from the comfy living room to 3 bedrooms and a well-equipped kitchen. Adequate heating from the wood burner or the electric radiators. Some nice art on the wall of local sights. TV with lots of channels albeit a bit blurry. But excellent wifi/internet on top of that. From the vrbo listing it might be difficult to judge the layout and when arriving you'll find the property is free-standing but slightly built amongst a group of houses/sheds/hedges that limit the views you might expect somehow. However, the side window in the kitchen allows a glimpse of the bay/loch around the back and there's some slopes to be seen when sitting out front on the bench or when looking back from the couch. For us, it was not a problem, since this house is also an excellent place to start your discovery of Skye: it is so well placed along roads leading to any of the known and less-known destinations. Portree is great for shopping and has a lovely port and circular walk along the coast of the loch and woods. Every hotspot is reachable within 30-60 minutes, which seems like a selling point to me! What mattered most to us was the inside of the house, which was very good, and the contact with the owner, Flora. She was very friendly and quick to answer our few questions. Really enjoyed it! Very recommendable.

A beautiful cottage in a quiet area, spotlessly clean with all you would need for a perfect holiday. 3 good sized bedrooms, 2 double and a single ,lounge area and kitchen. A log fire with a substantial supply of logs. I would highly recommend this cottage as it is ideally placed to visit any part of the island.

The property was difficult for us to find it sets back a bit. We ended up at a neighbors and he kindly gave us directions. We were only 2 houses away. I would highly recommend this place.

Idyllic Croft
The croft is beautiful and the surrounding area is quiet and beautiful, there is a lovely Honesty box close by for treats and fresh eggs. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay the croft has all the amenities you could possibly want and Portree is a 10-15 minute drive where there is a large co-op. We will definitely be visiting again.

Loved the cottage. Had all the necessities and was clean and quaint. Address would not register in GPS on car or in google maps with phone. Landmark inn the vets address a few doors by helped. Hostess was quick to respond and we had no issues with the lovely cottage.

Perfect getaway location
The location itself is great as you are on the coast within minutes of walking from there. Beds were super comfortable, all rooms were very clean, wifi connection was very good and the kitchen had all the utensils required to cook and dine as well as additionals (like sugar and tea). Communication with the owner via whatsap was remarkably easy and ai’ve already discussed coming back next year. Struggling to come up with a negative. — oh actually yes, the weather wasnt great on a couple of the days but thats not the owners fault at all :)

Great Cottage
The house is nice. It has 2 double bedrooms upstairs and one downstairs. Kitchen was well equipped. Bathroom could do with an upgrade but did the job. The shower pressure wasn’t great. WiFi was very good and the garden with the stream was lovely. The location was great and we had some nice walks from the house. Flora was very friendly and attentive. We would love to stay there again.

Beautifully prepared, comfortable and quiet
This was a very nice, secluded property situated ideally in the centre of the island to explore locally in all directions. Easy and confident communication with the owner meant check in and out was seamless. the property was in an excellent state of repair, with loads of heat when required for drying out. Well equipped kitchen gave everything needed for a relaxing stay indoors and an active stay out of doors. Thank You Flora for your pre-care.

Our Trip to Skye
The croft was perfect for our long weekend in Skye. It was only 10 mins from Portree which was perfect for us. It also was in a really quiet area. We met quite a few of the neighbours who were all really nice. Only issue we had was there was no curtains or blinds in the main bedroom downstairs and the window was quite large with a lot of sunlight coming in. Flora had explained that blinds were due to arrive but were late which we believed because everything in the croft seemed brand new, as if it had just been decorated. Definitely good value for money!

Lovely cottage & thoughtfully managed
The cottage looks great, outside and in. It is nicely furnished and decorated, spotlessly clean, and has a good layout. The kitchen is well stocked, every need was provided for, even a great view from the kitchen window. The bed was very comfortable. The living room is cosy and comfortable, with 3 sofas and a wood burning stove. The wi-fi broadband was good too. Flora the owner was very quick to respond to messages and is kind, generous and thoughtful. All in all, I would highly recommend this cottage.
