Seashell Cottage
A lovely property with wonderful views but in need of some updating especially the bathrooms and heating. Property was cold and we had to ask for heating in lounge dining area to be increased but old storage heater in main bedroom was too hot and could not be turned down. We also had a water leak in kitchen from dishwasher. As I said a lovely cottage but in need of a lot of TLC.

The house was even better than the photos suggested. The views were absolutely amazing. Perhaps slightly further from the sea shore than I thought but a 5 minute easy walk. Very well equipped with both equipment and provisions. Shame about all the instructions framed on the wall, but maybe people wouldn't read a file. We had a great stay.

This cottage is just as described, a fantastic location and extremely well appointed for a stay in Skye. The views at either end of the day are tremendous. I would recommend this cottage and Skye to everyone. I have just booked for next Easter, this will be our third year in a row.

Great cottage in exelent location
No words to describe how beautiful is Isle of Sky. The cottage is in awesome location and all the family enjoyed staying in it and enjoying the views from the living room. Absolutely no regrets traveling 12 hours with a car all the way from London
