This home is beautiful and just perfect for a visit to Skye. It is centrally located with easy access to services in Portree. The town's larger CO-OP grocery is lovely and has all you need. The views are exceptional. The home is well constructed, warm and cozy. I hope to return and stay again!

Shore cottage is perfect

Wonderful cottage that the pictures don’t do justice too. Just lovely and comfortable. Clean and excellent location (with a car). Great shared spaces and bedrooms/bathrooms are perfect. Only issue was some woodsmoke smell in Family room and master. Overall a great stay

Wonderful stay.

My recommendation to anyone who stays here is to plan at least one night to stay home and cook. Great kitchen and such a beautiful space to spend time with friends and family.

Sunsets by the fire

Our stay here was absolutely amazing. The space itself was beautiful with everything you could need. Extremely clean with comfy beds. Our favorite thing about our stay was lighting a fire each night in the living room and getting to watch the sun go down over the water.

Un très bon séjour en famille.

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié cette location. Il y a tout le confort nécessaire. Nous n’avons pas profité des extérieurs car la météo nous l’a pas permis. Je recommande pleinement cette location.

Fantastic stay

Property was better than described. We found it well supplied compared to other places we have stayed. Checkout was painless and we weren’t surprised with excessive work or cleaning. They looked after us from checkin to checkout.

Great end to our trip

After a two week trip through Great Britain, we ended our stay at Shore Cottage. We commented various times that we would have liked to have spent more days there - so relaxing and beautiful. It was very well appointed and clean. Highly recommend.

Lovely cottage in a lovely location

Lovely cottage in a beautiful location, very handy for all the sights, walks and restaurants Skye has to offer. The cottage itself was comfortable, clean and well equipped with salt, pepper, oil, vinegar, dishwasher tablets and washing machine capsules. Thank you we really enjoyed our stay.

Great end to our vacation

Beautiful property with extraordinary views. Great communication from property management company. Very nicely appointed kitchen. We used the washer/dryer upon arrival and they worked well. Highly recommend. Wish we could have stayed longer.

The property was as described, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was very spacious, giving everyone plenty of space for lounging and sleeping. The views were spectacular! The only problem we encountered was with locking the door. I had to call to find out how to do so, which was to lift up on the handle when locking. This would be helpful information to include in the check-in process.

Best Stay!

Perfect location to explore Skye! We had an amazing stay - the house was clean, spacious, cozy, convenient, and well-appointed. Loved being right on the water with gorgeous views of Portree and The Storr. 8 minutes to Portree, and easy access to the rest of Skye. Communication was clear and responsive. We explored quite a bit, but my kids said their favourite part of Skye was this cottage. One of the neighbours has sheep that come right to the fence which was pretty exciting for the kids also. We already can’t wait to come back!

The most spectactular view on Skye

This is specactular cottage in so many ways: directly on the sea with a direct view on the Storr! It's huge with ample space for 3 couples or 2 families. Not far from Portree center if you have a car. Entry directives were clear but some equipment were very hard to operate and the people we phoned hag no clue what to do (they were not the owner). We also had to assemble the baby chair ourselves.
