Escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life in this remote holiday home on the beautiful Isle of Skye. The property, which is perfect for couples and small families, boasts a peaceful location overlooking Loch Caroy and is 4.5 miles from the quaint village of Dunvegan. At the end of the day, unwind in the spacious garden with a wee dram and marvel at your breathtaking surroundings.

The island retreat sits high above Loch Caroy and enjoys far-reaching views across the water towards the Cuillin mountains. The property is bright and airy, with neutral paintwork and exposed woodwork providing the backdrop to coastal-themed artwork and accessories.

Enter the former croft house into the open-plan lounge/diner, where a warming wood burner creates a cosy atmosphere, and a collection of comfortable seating provides the ideal place to relax after a long walk. Gather here for a movie night in front of the Smart TV, or congregate at the dining table for a delicious, home-cooked meal. The separate kitchen is equipped with everything you need for a self-catering holiday.

Upstairs, discover two elegant bedrooms - a double and a twin - as well as a stylish family bathroom. This floor has characterful sloping ceilings, so you may experience restricted head height in some areas.

The cottage was absolutely amazing. Equipped with everything one may need during their stay and much more. A lovely touch of a welcome cake in the kitchen, too! Instructions were very clear and we totally felt like home and loved returning there after each day spent out exploring Skye. The place is peaceful, yet well located for all the day trips wRead moree were making all over Skye. Local grocery shop, fruit and veg shop and restaurants are only 7 minutes away by car. Hide

It is a beautifully furnished cottage with great facilities, including a wood burner, which we lit on chilly nights. We also enjoyed breakfast outside on the picnic bench. We loved the location, with beautiful views over the loch and the mountains beyond. A great location for exploring the area and for coastal hiking.
