A lovely cottage with stunning views of the Black Cuilin mountains and the loch. The cottage is well equipped with everything we needed and offered such a cosy and warm atmosphere, The garden is full of mature trees and shrubs and offers a delightful space to sit and enjoy those magnificent views. We were looking for somewhere that gave us a real sense of being on Skye and Half of Two certainly delivered.

This cottage has everything you need for a good holiday. It's warm and comfortable.The best thing about it is the view across the loch to the mountains beyond. It is amazing and changing all the time as the weather changes.There's not much to do in Torrin, but in Broadford there are pubs, cafes, restaurants and shops. They are only 10 minutes away.
