A week away with friends
Beautiful house located alongside the loch. The views are spectacular either from outside the property or when looking out through the panoramic lounge windows. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Lovely location and stay
This was a great stay in a lovely property. Just a few things for the owner to consider sent in the spirit of (hopefully) helpful feedback: - the double bedroom mattress's seemed quite thin compared to current standards. - the cooker was always on and therefore made the lounge quite hot when the sun was shining. We didn't use the cooker so not only an unnecessary cost to the owner but as an oil burning appliance not environmentally friendly either. - finally, although it didn't bother us some people may feel the quite personalised lounge left them feeling they were staying in someone else's space, rather than their own for the period; maybe a page on the family history and their long connection to the property would get round that. Overall a stunning location and comfortable home for our week (which was spent mainly visiting Skye).

Very pleasant.
‘Iona Cottage’ is not a cottage in the traditional sense- it is a lovely, large house . Wood internally gives the building a slight feeling of being in an Alpine/Nordic chalet . Six of us had plenty of room. (We were able to use one bedroom as a ‘dressing/clothes room as wardrobes in only one bedroom.) It worked very well for us. Whist there, we celebrated a big birthday for my husband with our two daughters and their partners. ( I found a wonderful woman on Skye who made and delivered a fabulous cake to us at short notice!) We had a great time. Living area is very spacious, comfortable , bright and the views from the huge windows are genuinely stunning. We used BBQ and gradually became used to the Arga. Location is fabulous if you have a car and it is easy to explore both Skye and mainland. We crammed in so much during a week. Would happily have stayed longer if possible.

Phenomenal location
We had high expectations for the house and they were all exceeded. Great base to explore the Isle of Sky, relax and enjoy the highlands. Our time here was the highlight of our trip to Scotland!

beautiful and near skye
it's a beautiful place especially for kids. the house isn't that modern and in the kitchen there isn't enough cutlery (small spoons, small knifes to cut cheese and veggies) for a group of eight. the view is great and the location to visit the isle of skye and surrounding is perfect.
