This has to be the ideal spot to stay - and the ideal house! - if you want to explore Skye from north to south, west to east. Hygge is immensely practical, beautifully comfortable, very homely, always warm, extremely well equipped and very cleverly planned in terms of use of space. Brilliant! We'll be back...
