The house is absolutely fine but not more. Fixtures for curtain cords are falling off the wall, some of the heaters are rusting, the silicone on the bathtub is coming off, the garden wasn’t tidy, lights didn’t work (would not go on/off), I couldn’t get the cupboard in my room open, the curtains don’t block out the light, a mirror in the bathroom was chipped/rusty… but the local rental was extremely friendly. And the house is in a great location within walking distance from Portree town centre.

8.0 / 10.0

House was great, location was great - right next to a play park for my daughter, near a Co-op for supplies and 15 mins from Portree centre.Only knock off 1 star because the heating was either fully off (when we arrived) or fully on (after they came to fix it) - the timer/heating controls didn't seem to work at all. But they were very reactive and tried to sort as best they can, so thanks for that! I'm sure it'll be fixed for the next guests! Overall, I would fully recommend this as a place to stay in Skye. :)

Great place! Ample space for our crew, the afternoon sun through the patio doors was so wonderful--beautiful patio outside, we love the flowers! Thoroughly enjoyable stay, and plenty of provisions such as soaps and toilet paper!

The house is comfortable enough and it appears to have been well-set up, although it needs some care and attention and needs clear information for guests.

This house was clean and comfortable. Our group of 5 family members had a nice stay here. The Co-Op was just around the corner to buy food. The kitchen was nice to make our own meals. The washer in the kitchen and dryer in the garage make it nice to wash our clothes mid way through our Scotland tour.

If you are looking for a lovely home to stay at when you are visiting Skye/Portree area this home is the place for you. Large kitchen and sitting area are very inviting. We appreciated how quick the response was from the management company with any questions we had. Location is perfect, the home is only a 10 minute walk to the restaurants and shops in Portree. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect house for couples/friends or small family. Ideally located in walking distance to downtown Portree with grocery shopping just around the corners The house could need some touchup in the near future but other than that we really liked our stay here. It’s a perfect base camp location for exploring all of Skye in a couple of days…

8.0 / 10.0

Ideally located to walk to downtown Portree this house offers everything you need to stay a couple of nights on Skye. Grocery shopping is just around the corner. Facilities are in okay condition, some details would need a bit of fixing. Other than that we can totally recommend!

The house is comfortable but a little tired. Some updates needed. Overall a good stay

10.0 / 10.0

Cute house in a centrally located neighborhood, within walking distance to groceries and downtown Portree. House was well stocked with kitchen essentials and was comfortable for our family. One bedroom could stand a new mattress as our kids could feel some springs. Also some blackout curtains would be great in the Spring/Summer months as it is light most of the day and night. But other than it was cute and nice and we’d recommend it to others.

This property was perfect for two couples. It had everything we needed and was clean and comfortable. It was lovely to have a little back garden. The walk into town was easy. The host was very responsive and friendly. Would definitely recommend!

Home is lovely with a nice backyard in a quiet neighborhood with play area across the street. We could easily walk to grocery store and downtown Portree. There were some issues with maintenance while we were there, but that couldn’t be helped.

Our group of 2 couples and 2 friends enjoyed a 3-nights stay at this cottage which is a 10-15 minutes walk outside of Portree. Rooms are spacious and the kitchen is well equipped for cooking. Would recommend this house for a group of friends or families.

10.0 / 10.0

Our group of 2 couples and 2 friends stayed 3 nights at this house. You will find everything you need for a pleasant stay. The kitchen is well equipped. The interior walls are poorly soundproofed so that you can hear everything between the rooms. The location is a 10-15 minutes walk from the center of Portree. Would recommend this house for groups or families.

Thank you! Everything was just as described. My only comment is maybe more lighting in the TV room. We tried playing a game but couldn't see the board very well but that's if I'm being picky.

Great place to stay! Portree was incredibly busy. The accommodation was large, plenty of space for family, has its own garden and parking spaces. It was clean and well equipped and comfortable. We were pleased to be able to cook our own meals as kitchen had full sized fridge/freezer and full sized cooker. Garden lovely and sunny with garden furniture for an evening drink! Thank you would definitely stay again!!

I would just like to thank the owners of this beautiful accommodation. The house itself was immaculate and has been taken very good care of, beautiful decor, spacious and the beds were beyond comfortable. The location quiet and very family friendly it was perfect for us as we were visiting family in Portree, close enough to walk into the town centre. The owners themselves were also extremely helpful and very nice and easy to deal with, recommending activities for the kids etc Highly recommended, I miss sitting in the garden with my morning coffee and beautiful views already thanks again

Visit to Skye

Visit to Skye

We picked this VRBO for its location. It’s centrally situated for day drives around Skye. It is also ab easy walk into the main shopping and eating areas as well as the food Co-op. It was quite chilly the first night and we couldn’t figure out the thermostat/heat. We quickly got a helpful reply. Someone even came over in the morning to check. My one suggestion is to add a “renter’s binder “ with information about check in/ out, appliance user manuals, Portree restaurants, etc. We were three adults and there was plenty of room

Easy to follow instructions! The house was as it shows in the pictures and has everything that we need during our stay. The location was good too, near to the supermarket 1 min drive and 5 mins walk, and near to most attractions in Skye. We had a lovely stay in the house with the facilities available and easy communication with the reservation manager too.
