We stayed in this house as a last minute pivot when we couldn’t get to the islands because of a storm. It turned out better than we could have anticipated! Communication with host was great, check in was easy, everything was spotless and comfortable. We loved the views out of the front window and we even saw dolphins just outside. Great stay!
I cannot speak more highly about our stay. The house is beautiful, homely, warm and with every ammenity required.With views from the living room and three bedrooms, immediate access to the seashore, and close to Skye you really couldnt ask for more.

The property is extremely well located for visiting some incredibly beautiful places. It is also convenient for short drive to local facilities. The view from the living area is as good as it gets. Inside the property is beautifully appointed and well equipped. Communication with the owner was efficient, prompt and friendly. I would certainly consider staying again.
Absolutely incredible spot. Very comfortable home, plenty of space for our group of 9. Beautiful, beautiful view. Fun spot down by the water for lots of exploring.
What a fantastic property in a stunning location. This stay exceeded all our expectations, and the real game-changer was each bedroom having an ensuite bathroom! We also saw dolphins and seals in the water from the living room window. A real gem of a place. Thanks again Colin!
After a windy day and trying driving in the highlands, there was no better feeling than sitting on the sofa, fire burning, gazing out at the light and wind dancing on the sound as the sky dims -- a perfect house for a perfect holiday.
Its just exactly as advertised. Four on-suite double bedrooms and another room that comfortably has a double bed. Spectacular views over the Loch, seen an otter one morning going about its business just by the shore next to the house. House very well equipped and clean, great showers and a bath in the downstairs double room. So much to see and do around the area, property is in a woodland with walks marked out. Just cant recomend this holiday home enouhg.
Comfortable well furnished property with en-suite bathroom. Bedrooms were great and bright and airy. Lovely views of the water from the front of the house. Peace and quiet. Well equipped kitchen and utility room.. Enough space in the lounge for family of 7. Outside space is good but limitations with younger children. Ours did enjoy going down the path to the rocks by the water’s edge. Path a little steep in places if you’re a bit doddering on the feet. Games available for a rainy day.Location close to Skye was ok for us. Adequate grocery shopping within a couple of miles. We had a lovely stay. Thank you Colin
We loved this holiday and everyone said it was the best place we'd stayed as a 3 generation family. We really appreciated having 4 very comfortable bedrooms, well soundproofed from each other and all ensuite. It's hard to find large, quality double beds in all rooms so this was perfect for us. The whole house was cosy and there was plenty of hot water. We made good use of the lovely, large dining table and loved the views both from living rooms and bedrooms.
The location worked really well, being able to walk through local woodlands and drive easily to Coral Beach, Plockton, Eilean Donan Castle and across for day trips to Skye to enjoy walks.
Having chosen to eat at home most days (we had two young children) the only criticism was the poor state of the 'non-stick' cookware which we avoided using, making cooking for 8 of us a bit tricky - in fact we bought our own frying pan! Apart from that the kitchen was very well stocked.
Many thanks for the best holiday and we hope to be back!
The house is lovely, very clean and well equipped with stunning views.
The beds were very comfortable as were the sofas, just what we needed after a trek.
I thoroughly recommend this place
Beautiful setting and very confortable house .
We had a wonderful stay with my parents my sister her children and our family.
The house is very well equipped and the scenery is incredible. We loved the otters 👍
We would return and highly recommend it to friends

Very comfortable house in a wonderful location, with spectacular views. The house is large, comfortable and very nicely furnished. Kitchen is large and well equipped. House is in a quiet location but with easy access to shops, walks and local sites. The views from most rooms are spectacular and change throughout the day, depending on the weather. The owner is easy to communicate with. Will definitely return.
This house is a perfect base for exploring Skye. The house is better than it looks in the photos, total luxury. The location is amazing, we regularly saw dolphins from the window, the bay is good for paddle boarding with very clear water, and parking right by the beach for unloading all your gear, and local services in Kyle of Lochalsh are only 5 minutes away. The woods behind the house are beautiful and perfect for dog walking.
Perfect location, waking up and looking out at the views every day was a joy - we saw otters twice from the lounge window! Location is tranquil and quiet, but not remote - 5 min drive to Lochalsh for a decent co-op with a great range. 10 mins and you're over the bridge and onto Skye. The rooms were spacious, kitchen well set out and standard of decor was superb. If I could find one tiny criticism, it would be the water pressure, but given this is a rural location, Im not sure anything could be done to improve it. I would highly recommend and hopefully will be staying there again in the future.
The house is beautifully furnished and decorated and well appointed, giving us a very comfortable and enjoyable stay. Comfy beds, apart from the sofa bed in the study, which we needed to use due to the size of our family group. The sofa bed needs a proper mattress and efforts could be made to make the study more attractive as a sleeping space.
The views are stunning and the location, just minutes away from Skye, was perfect. The local walks in the woods were beautiful and allowed us to take our dogs out without getting in the car every time.
We had a few issues with the heating, but a quick phone call had these resolved instantly.
The only other small negative was some dirty plates and a dirty pan in the cupboards. This is probably due to there being a very large amount of crockery in the cupboards and I assume the cleaners don't check all the way through it. It was only a small inconvenience to wash these items before use, but not ideal.
Overall, a very lovely place to stay.
Tolles Objekt, Ausstattung und Lage hervorragend, der Blick ist atemberaubend. Der Vermieter Colin war sehr nett, auf Fragen und Bitten wurde schnell reagiert.
The property and location were idyllic. My close family totalling 10 persons all considered the lodge to be first class in all aspects including cleanliness, quality of soft furnishings and kitchenware.
Gorgeous views, well stocked kitchen (the best stocked in over 30 years of visiting Scotland), great access to Skye, good dark sky location (we were lucky with the weather and had very clear skies on our last night).. There were 8 of us in our party and there was plenty of space for everyone. Would definitely recommend it.
