Reviews
"A gem of a cottage in a stunning part of Skye. Beautifully presented with everything we needed and more. Excellent attention to detail with a kind welcome pack, games and DVDs to play and a wood burning stove generously prepared. Ideally located for the Quirang and the ferry and only 20 minutes from Portree. Note there is no mobile reception (a good break on holiday), but there is WiFi. We couldn't have been made to feel more welcome by the hosts and loved our stay and visit to Skye."
"Absolutely a superb accommodation and memorable stay at a working croft. Owners were wonderful and helpful. It is a good location for day trips or catching a ferry at Uig to islands. Highly recommend."
"We have been to Skye twice a year for the past ten years and I can honestly say that this cottage is probably the best presented one in which we have stayed. Well worth the eleven hour drive with our two wee dogs. Gordon and Margaret should be rightly proud of this little gem. Clean, comfortable, warm and welcoming. The location is ideal for travelling round the north of the Island with Portree only a fifteen minute drive away and Uig only ten minutes away. It was nice to know that Gordon and Margaret were only next door if anything was needed but everything worked well. I was going to pass the details of this wonderful cottage on to my friends but decided against it, just in case they wanted to book the same time as me! We will definitely be back. Thanks."
"We loved this cottage. Well worth the 8 hour drive. Lovely owners who helped when asked and couldn't do enough for us. The Isle of Syke is a beautiful place with so many stunning places to visit. Gordon let us use some of the land to comfortably walk our dog off lead away from cattle. We appreciated that. A little word of warning the National Lottery funded walk across the river is great BUT please watch out for the 3 cows through the second gate! In summary we had a relaxing week but Gordon please sort out those noisy pipes from the log burner!"
"Our first trip to the Isle of Skye and we couldn't have found a more perfect place to stay. Very welcoming hosts Gordon and Margaret who have paid considerable attention to detail to ensure guests enjoy their cottage experience. Loved the woodburner in the evenings, watching the lambs playing outside and the stunning views. If you are thinkng of booking we highly recommend you do. If you want a remote and relaxing location you have found it."
"Trotternish cottage was well presented and decorated. It was warm and cosy on arrival, with the log fire prepared and ready to light. The owner met us at the door and was friendly and helpful. All appliances worked perfectly, and the wood burning stove was fantastic - we stuck on one large log and it kept the house warm all evening with no further coaxing required! Lovely, comfy beds too!! The cottage is in a peaceful location, well situated for visiting Uig, Portree and Dunvegan etc. There is a pretty garden, which would be ideal for a barbecue (provided) in good weather. If you like cats, there are some friendly ones on the farm that will come into the garden and socialise if invited! It should be noted that there is no mobile phone coverage at the house, though there is a phonebox down the street. If you want to get away from the rat race, this is a great place to stay. We had a great time, thanks!"
"Helpful on-site owners. Clean, comfortable house with appliances that worked well.2 bathrooms were a boon. Good beds. Quiet,cul de sac. Traditional house nicely renovated."
