You can watch seals basking on the rocks from the kitchen window and even enjoy occasional visits from otters. There are deer, hawks , peregrines and eagles to be seen from the cottage.

The cottage is filled with chic furnishings like Cath Kidston crockery, OKA furniture, Crucial Trading rugs, Moroccan cushions/throws, patchwork quilts and original artwork from all over the UK.

Beaches are a couple of minutes walk away.

The cottage is in an exceptionally quiet position, down a private track off the very quiet loop road, yet only 4 miles from the shops, pubs and cafes of Dunvegan and 25 minutes from Portree.

Isle of Skye Magical Treasure

My wife and I took my best friend to Skye for a week in early October. Our lovely cottage was perfect for exploring the island's various majestic sites. The location looking out over the loch was both beautiful and cozy. Our kitchen was well equipped, and I cooked many of our meals there. We shopped about 45 minutes away in Portree and Broadford at the coop. and then added as needed from the small shop 5 minutes drive in Dunvegan. The host offers very detailed directions on how to find the cottage as well as how to use the various showers, stoves, fireplaces, etc. The washer and dryer came in very handy. For the three of us it was perfect.”

A true haven of peace

Our stay at this cottage on the Isle of Skye was exactly what we were looking for. We needed a quiet and relaxed place to recharge our batteries, and this cottage exceeded our expectations. The place is a true haven of peace. Waking up every morning to the views of the lake and the silence of the Highlands is a priceless experience. The house is very cozy and comfortable, and it made us feel as if we were in our own home in the middle of nature. If you are looking to disconnect from the world and enjoy tranquility, this is the ideal place. The location next to the lake is unbeatable. It helped us return home completely renewed.”
