Nestled on five acres of picturesque grounds, Skibo House welcomes you with its expansive outdoor spaces, perfect for relaxation and play. The property is named after Skibo Castle in Scotland, reflecting its enchanting and family-friendly ambiance. Children can let their imaginations soar in the play area, pretending they are in a real Scottish castle, while parents enjoy lawn games or gather around the fire pit during winter evenings (seasonal restrictions apply).

Inside, the living area is filled with natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows and doors that open to let cooling breezes flow through during summer. The kitchen, designed for family cook-ups, features modern appliances, ample counter space, and an adjacent butler’s pantry for added convenience.

Bedrooms are warm and inviting, including a master suite with an ensuite offering twin basins and a luxurious soaking tub. Additional rooms and bathrooms are thoughtfully designed for comfort. A dedicated kids’ TV/playroom sits near the bunk rooms, providing a space for entertainment.

Fully ducted air conditioning ensures a comfortable stay year-round, while high-speed Wi-Fi and ample parking add convenience.

Linens are included in the cleaning fee at this property. The linen pack includes the bed made with top & bottom sheets, pillows cases, bathroom towel(s), bathmat, hand and face towel(s).

Awesome family getaway house!
Our weekend away was perfect in this well presented property. Everything we needed to entertain the adults and kids for the weekend. The location is perfect, just out of Margs but still close enough for a quick drive into the beaches, caves etc. Thanks for having us!

Fantastic property
The house was great and easily accommodated 6 adults 3 kids. The outside yard and kids playground kept the kids entertained and was big enough that we didnt have to worry about them too much. The location to Witchcliffe was a short 10 minute drive with lovely quaint shops. Would definitely stay there again

Just perfect
My family and I (8 adults, 2 small children and a dog!) all had the absolute best stay at Skibo House. Everything was as pictured, in fact some pictures don’t do the property justice. We started each day by visiting a different beach - all within a short drive and ended most days in town which is also only a short drive away. The outdoor space was perfect for our 3 year old and 1 year old. Our dog also enjoyed the freedom to sniff and explore the fenced grounds. Thank you a wonderful stay!

Beautiful property
Some minor issues, we could hardly get the tv, Netflix etc to work not even free to air. It would have been nice to know we needed basics like salt, pepper oil The light switch in the main bedroom didn’t stay on. As I say minor things, the property was perfect for us as a family of 3 generations.
