The Old Croft House was just perfect, immaculately clean, comfortable and in a stunning location. The views from the property were amazing. It was everything we wanted from our visit to Skye. It really is a home from home property and we would definately stay there again. The enclosed garden was perfect for our dog, he loved it as much as us.
Very old house that has been fabulously updated. Kitchen is gorgeous with all amenities, aga wood burning stove was warm and toasty and added just the right touch to the ambiance . Beds were comfortable. House was warm and the view was to die for. A bit scary driving in, and quite far from amenities but thats what you get and thats what we paid for. Thanks Alison for all your help with medical issues. Made a big difference! Love stay!
Allison, i wanted to let you know I found the Beiderlack blankets available stateside. Bought one and love it. Still searching for the cow with painted hair you had at your house. If you can let me know where to get one of him, id love it. So cute . Thanks agian for a lovely stay!!!
We were charmed by the beauty of The Old Croft House and it's views. It was very neatly appointed and had a small working fireplace that we used with delight. We are already plotting to return and will treasure our memories there for life.
The Croft was cosy and in a delightful location on the coast. Lovey well equipped kitchen, The woodburner was great on colder evenings. The isolation was wonderful . Truly a place to relax, unwind and enjoy the peace and quiet . Loved it ❤️
We have always loved holidaying in Scotland and bought The Old Croft House on a whim when we saw it (as a derelict cottage) and fell in love with it and its wonderful location!
Why they chose this property
Skye is a beautiful island and Sleat is 'the garden of Skye' and aptly named as the greenest part of the island. The cottage is located in Aird, a village on the southerly most tip of Skye and we have amazing views out to Eigg & Rhum & Ardnamurchan. It is a truly magical place to stay & we love it!
What makes this property unique
We go for a rest from the world, peace and tranquility, wild storms, beautiful sunsets and great wildlife & walks.
