    Be aware that the kitchen and living areas are shared with others guests. We did not find this a problem as the others were very nice and considerate. As the house is big there is room to spread out b

    Spacious, spotless, comfortable with a welcoming host. Fully recommend.

    Nothing really just we couldn't get into any local restaurants so we had to go to Portree, but we should have booked sooner.

    Beautiful cottage with loads of room and very comfortable. Lovely continental breakfast 😋

    Everything was good!

    This cottage was super comfy for us! First of all, Angie, the owner of this property, was super friendly, she always asked us whether we needed any help or any additional things in the house. We were lucky to have good neighbors. Breakfast basket was enough for us to have a decent breakfast in the morning. There was a parking near the house and the location was good enough to travel to any direction of the island. And there is a bus stop right next to the house, so I suppose you could travel by bus too? I can fully recommend this cottage ☺️

    We did not find any concise information about the accommodation or local area, which we would normally expect. I'm sure there would have been some but it was not obvious where! It was not a big issue.

    The accommodation was beautiful and set in a lovely area overlooking the fells. It was quiet and very good for sleeping.

    It was great honestly!

    The cottage has private rooms which share living spaces and the kitchen. Everyone had a private bathroom which was great. The living space were comfortable and big enough so you don’t have to engage with others if you don’t want to. The host was also lovely and responded to our wishes quickly. Stargazing was also possible on the porch. Definitely coming back!

    We had a super comfortable stay in Room 1! The bedroom and en-suite toilet were clean and spacious, and the rain shower was superb with warm water. The shared areas like the kitchen were clean, and everything was provided for. Great service by Angie too - who gave accurate directions and checked in on us regularly.

    Can’t say there was anything I disliked. I’d say having some drinking cups in upstairs bathrooms would be good. Maybe a fan for warmer nights too (just suggestions)

    The stairs and the low ceilings in the bedroom. I banged my head several times.

    A different concept from the usual b and b. We had everything we needed for breakfast.

    Unfortunately, and not the fault of the property, there was no water on our second evening. One begins to appreciate the importance of water in so many of one's daily activities, especially when it involves toilets.

    Very quiet and loads of amenities.

    Would prefer to see Scottish butter and jam for breakfast if possible. And a sign explaining the recycling (I might have missed it!)

    Lovely kitchen with everything you might need (including a laundry).Comfortable lounge areas and very comfy bed. Continental breakfast supplies provided were lovely and more than enough. I appreciated the flexibility of being able to have breakfast anytime (including when I got back from the pub the night before....) Beautiful big windows looking north west for sunset.
