Park Cottage - A very private and scenic holiday home.

Park Cottage is a traditional Skye crofthouse built in the 1890s and was completely renovated throughout in 2017. Graded 4 star by VisitScotland, STL licence HI-30039-F and a 'C' Energy Performance Rating (EPC), it sits at the end of the Park Bernisdale crofting township, 9 miles from Portree in a very private, peaceful and beautiful location with absolutely no passing traffic whatsoever. The open plan sitting/dining room is furnished in a very homely style including a log burner with some logs provided. The downstairs bedroom has a king size bed with an en-suite, including a big shower. There is a second shower room downstairs and 2 bedrooms upstairs (a single and a double) that have coombed ceilings to the sides and are well appointed but much smaller. The well equipped kitchen includes a dishwasher and a washing machine with tabs for both included. Along with many other items including washing up liquid, dish towels, etc, etc. Park Cottage is in a great location for visiting north and central Skye with a minimum stay of 3 nights and arrival can be on any day of the week. It can accommodate a maximum of 4 people comfortably (including children of 8 and over).
Park Cottage has an EV charger exclusively for guest use. Charged separately at 35p/unit (Kwh). More detail sent nearer time of stay or on request anytime.
Sorry but I do not allow pets.

Beautiful stay
A beautiful location to relax and explore from. Part of the family was able to hike nearby attractions while others enjoyed the views and walks around the cottage. The cottage was very well appointed and beautifully renovated to allow for modern conveniences while keeping its charm. The owner was very responsive when asked about local recommendations. We would love to return if only it was sooooo far from Virginia.

I would love to return here someday. The cottage is a perfect home away from home. The host has thought of everything. The property is stunning with nature right at your door. Well appointed kitchen to prepare meals. Perfect resting place after long days exploring Skye.

Skye Cottage Retreat
The cottage was very well situated to explore and enjoy the Isle of Skye. We loved the private setting with a wonderful view across water to hills in the background. It was a very relaxing retreat after a day of exploring the island. The Croft cottage has been expertly renovated and is well appointed.

This was my favorite place of our 3 week stay in Scotland, we loved it. The cottage was perfect, cozy, quiet and comfortable. We loved the area, easy to get into Portree or anywhere else we wanted. This would be one of my first picks to stay in again!

Beautiful, comfortable, exceptionally clean cottage in stunning location that was in the quiet countryside overlooking the water. Field with sheep next door. Could not have been more impressed. Would definitely stay again. Worth every penny.

Quiet Skye.
Wonderful stay with great living areas, and kitchen. The views were outstanding and peacefulness of the area replenished our souls. Though another couple was supposed to be with us, it ended up just being my wife and I. Waking up to the sheep and their new lambs was a added bonus. Though the weather was not ideal, gale force winds, driving rain, sleet and hail, it didn't stop us from exploring from this ideal location. We will return someday. It was a wonderful stay.

Beautiful cottage in a fantastic location
The cottage was exactly as the listing described. Very clean with all the amenities that you would need, great kitchen with everything in it. The views were stunning, I enjoyed taking my first coffee of the day out into the garden and looking over the lock. One night it got a little chilly so the log fire was very handy. The cottage was easy to get to and the communication with the owner was also very pleasant and good.

This cottage was everthing I'd hoped it to be. It was comfortable, quiet and the views were amazing. Margaret was an exceptional host and maintained contact throughout. This cottage had everything you could need. I would highly recommend this cottage, if you like to be in the country side away from the busy cities.

We had 2 days on Skye, both very overcast and wet. We managed to venture out knowing that Park Cottage was waiting for us at the end of the day. Spotlessly clean, well equipped and very comfortable. The views from our bedroom were idyllic. Loved every minute of our stay! Would recommend to all! Thank you Margaret ❤️

Dream location
Margaret's place was as advertised -- and even better. The morning views were amazing. The home was cozy, clean and inviting. We had everything we needed for making breakfast. Only complaint was there were no screens on the windows, but that's pretty standard in Europe. It's a wonderful place and reasonably priced!!

fantastisch
Het huis was echt gezellig en had alles wat we nodig hadden en zelfs meer (houtkacheltje en Netflix). Geweldige douche, alleen oppassen met het warm water (te lang douchen is geen optie want dan heeft de laatste geen warm water meer) De locatie is fantastisch, het uitzicht super. De ligging is ook goed om de het meeste van Skye te bezoeken. Een aanrader voor iedereen.
