Quiet rural setting central on the island location, ideal base to explore Skye. Blackout blinds in upstairs rooms are excellent for children getting good sleep. Host responds quickly to any questions.

Relaxing week with everything we need
Cottages are rented for one week normally and it was good because we were able to see most of the island of skye, which is lovely. Nice walks right near the cottage and you can drive to many other walks. There's a very nice wood-burning stove. You'll have to buy wood once you run out what they give you. We had some problems finding the place but once that was over with, we had a very stress-free lovely stay. Flora is responsive to texts.

Perfect location for exploring all of Skye, not too remote, but very peaceful. The cottage is clean, modern, and very sunny (when the sun is out!). Owner was responsive to our needs, I would look forward to renting here again.

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.

Lovely cottage in very quiet, peaceful location but ideally situated for exploring Skye
Cottage has everything you need. Very comfortable. Fully equipped kitchen and best shower ever! Location nice and quiet even though you're just off the main road. Centrally located should you wish to go North, East, South or West. Thoroughly recommend. Host very helpful suggesting itineraries and places to eat.

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.

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.

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.
