Superb , quiet location with spectacular views. Always spotlessly clean on arrival. Beds pretty comfortable. Kitchen well equipped.
The only downside for a group is that the kitchen is quite small so hard to squeeze around the table to sit to eat. However we have returned multiple times so it hasn’t stopped us!

Prima huis op een mooie rustige locatie.
Van de accommodatie viel eigenlijk niets tegen. Het eiland Skye daarentegen wel. Dat is in onze ogen te veel gehypet. Er zijn mooiere plekken in de Schotse hooglanden te bezoeken. Ook de restaurants op Skye waren meestal niet erg goedkoop en moesten (wij waren er in september) veelal ruim van te voren worden gereserveerd.

A beautiful cottage in a remote beauty spot. The property even has its own local buzzard that you can spot outside at any time of day.
There's nothing we didn't like, really. It's an old cottage, so bear in mind the creaky stairs, and you will spot the occasional insect around. One thing I will say is that it would be great if they could work on getting a fence sorted. My dog is well trained and didn't go near the road, but some guests might need to keep their dog on a long lead or something.

The cottage was roomy and accommodated 4 people well. The kitchen was well set up. The location was very good, and we enjoyed the view. Although it was quite plain, the place was clean and tidy.
We sent several texts to the number provided to let them know the door of the washer would not stay shut. Booking.com told us they contacted the owners to let them know, along with the fact that the flush button on the toilet broke, but the toilet was still functional. They told us the housekeeper had requested more info about the toilet button, but no one responded regarding the washing machine. The toilet was not fixed, and we went the full 4 days without communication about the repair of the washer. This was frustrating, not having a way to wash our clothes after lots of hikes. Having a washing machine was one of the reasons we booked this place. Very disappointing to hear nothing, even after a second message with Booking.com. We were unable to figure out why the dishwasher didn't work properly - the dishes came out dirty and we did them by hand.
We would recommend having a blanket or throw available to use while sitting on the couch.
To be honest, given the price of renting Altvaid, the 4 of us agree it does not measure up to other places we stayed in the area. It has excellent potential with some more thought and TLC.
