slower WiFi, one BBC channel.

Excellent view, spacious new house, kind and accommodating homeowner, the most beautiful scenery on the entire Isle of Skye, slower WiFi, one BBC channel, amazing close-up view of sheep and cattle farming, an unforgettable and beautiful holiday...

No contact with owner. Tried phoning a couple of times, although in fairness didnt leave a message. Would have appreciated a bit of honest guidance on the TV situation (of which there are three on site) No aerial signal, no Wi fi to speak of and main TV only works with a Sky card (which we didnt have). Sky did allow viewing of 4/5 channels, so not a complete disaster. Also would have liked notes on where we can walk, as everywhere is fenced off other than the road. Be warned to gravel drive is very steep indeed, but we had no problem with it.

Absulutely stunning location. Very remote, so suggest clients are warned in advance to arrive equipped with plenty of provisions. It is 25 miles to the nearest supermarket, and 9 miles to the village store. Lovely large bungalow, plenty of space. Liked hard floor instead of carpet. The whole place felt clean. Comfy bed. Great to be able to sit out at the picnic bench or gaze out of the living room window, watching the sun go down. Magical.

There was nothing I didn’t like about the house. Very comfortable and warm. Minor suggestions would be more kitchen utensils like a grater and frying pan/wok.

The house is in the most amazing location - just about at the end of the Waternish peninsula. Views and serenity you dream about.

The approach road condition to the property is not good. The road needs to be repaired urgently.

The property location is excellent. The location itself is a good viewpoint.

The goat track leading to the property is a test for all cars suspension and if anyone from the council reads this perhaps they could spare some tarmac!

Stunning location in a remote area away from the real world. Watching 2 sea eagles hunting was a real bonus along with seeing the milky way in a crystal clear dark sky. If you just want to relax this is the ideal place.

A manual for the television and wifi would be helpful

Never could figure out the television. Also tried to locate a place on Skye to purchase dvds to play on the dvd player but there is no where to buy them. So evenings were quiet, but would have loved for the kids to have been able to relax at night with a show or movie.

lovely home

Too secluded for us. Booking.com address brought us to a different property nearby but we found Bitacora on google maps. The host was not at the property for check in as we expected but we received an email just after we arrived to let us know where the keys were. The house manual should be updated to include TV/ Wifi instructions.

Lovely warm spacious house with great view over Ardmore bay. The house was equipped with cleaning materials, toiletries, tea/coffee and biscuits, salt&pepper - nice touches. Secluded location.

Amazing

poor WiFi. TV only free channels through sky. No access to Netflix etc via own account. Minimal instructions for TV & heating, but lots of “do not instruction” signs everywhere!!

location was amazing. Quiet & remote with fantastic view.

Sadly no communication from the owner prior to our arrival, so we had to hunt for a way in on arrival and as the location is remote it would have helped to have detailed directions.

Stunning location and everything we needed in the house. This is a great base for local walking and wildlife spotting we would be happy to return

absolutely nothing

Its a beautiful house located quite literally at the edge of Skye facing the sea. Very calm and serene with stunning views. The house is very modern with all the facilities one needs. Definitely recommended!

We couldn´t get the TV to work and had to call our host. He helped us right away, but it is always nice when everything works perfectly.

The house was amazing, we loved it! it was modern, super clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Even though the property is a bit far away, the location is perfect because of the ocean views, the silence and the calm. We had 2 minor issues upon our arrival, but our host was very responsive and everything was resolved in a matter of minutes. I totally recommend this property for those who are looking to enjoy a few days surrounded by peace and quiet and wonderful sights. If I go back some day I will look for Bitacora again.

Covid-free check in / check out without even seeing the owner, we did not mind though :) Nice cozy place at the end of Skye. Can only recommend.

Nothing we didn't like!

Fab cottage and location, loved it. Ticked all our boxes

We were happy with everything. You cannot expect fast Internet in the middle of nowhere.

The location is amazing, and the house is impeccably clean. It is a fantastic property.

WiFi is limited but for us that was a bonus!

This property is a real gem.The property was a credit to the owners and we hope guests respect it so that others can enjoy the exceptional quality of the property, the views, peace and tranquility we were afforded. We look forward to renting the property again.

Nothing.

Everything. We had a super time and would love to experience Skye and Bitacora again in the not too distant future. Would not stay anywhere else, simply exceptional. Thanks very much.

The main trouble was that the owner told us that a unremovable stain was found on the drawer of a bedside unit in the master bedroom and accused us of causing the dirt on 22 June 1023. The owner said that we would be charged for the repair cost. While we had certainly not done anything causing the so call "stain", we had checked out of the apartment on 14 June 2023. We wonder what happened after we left and whether the stein was there when we checked in! We are troubled and annoyed. Future guests may consider checking carefully all around to notice if there are any problems, or even take photos as a precaution. I have been using booking.com for many years to book accommodation at various countries and it is the first time that I have come across an accuse by an owner. We are greatly disappointed by the unreasonable accuse and claim. We would certainly reflect our disappointment and experience through various means as well as lodging a complaint towards the unreasonable treatment on us. Furthermore, the water outlet in the separate bath room was not functioning well, resulting in some flooding and slippery floor. There were many midges outside the house and their bites caused much discomfort to us.

Remote location with good view, quiet：no disturbance and apparently few cars passed by, large rooms with plenty of space, good kitchen equipment, pleasant decoration, all on ground floor no need to climb stairs, washing machine, and good wifi.

In hindsight the house is very remote. But the view is spectacular and made up for it. It is a long drive though from any part of the island and the roads to it are terrible. On our arrival day we got a disturbing call that the house was not ready and that the owner had tried to cancel it but due to booking.com that hasn’t come through. We booked at the 27th of april paid the full amount on the 17th of may and arrived on the 31st. How come you just then realize (probably because i sent a message at what estimated time we intended to arrive) after 35 days that your cancellation hadn’t come through. And then the request. Please come as late as possible because I have other things to do today. That is not funny at all and very disturbing since we don’t het have any alternative then to agree. That is was a real bummer to our holiday. Also to hot water supply doesn’t allow you to fill up the jacuzzi so that is worthless also.

What you see is what you get.
