Great spot to relax and enjoy the wonderful nature and landscapes of the Isle of Skye. For me it was perfect isolation with no neighbouring properties and the town of Portree not far away. With your own transport you can head out to all the amazing places Skye has to offer. The property had excellent wifi connection and the Electric was very reasonable. (Around £2.50 per day for me on my own in winter. Maybe a minor observation..would benefit adding USB/c ports for charging devices..or description of property to say ensure you take your own. Would go again👍

Cottage was lovely. Good location. Only thing missing really was wooden spoons to stir things in pots, apart from that had everything we needed.
