The cottage has modern amenities (dishwasher, washer, dryer, etc) with gorgeous antique touches. It was comfortable and cosy and had a gorgeous view over the fields with mountains in the background to enjoy. The bed was insanely comfortable. Location wise it was very convenient for seeing the well known sites on the island, but still felt pretty private as there were no other houses in view at the cottage. The hosts were super helpful and responsive when we reached out (we had some car trouble). Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Beautiful cottage with so much space! My family had a wonderful stay :)
We had been travelling for a while prior to our trip here so we made good use of the kitchen, washing machine and dryer!
Bonus having a fire although the home was very warm and cosy without it going and the owners provided a bunch of board games :)
Location of the cottage was perfect and it was a wonderful place to stay for anyone wanting to go out and explore or just have a relaxing few days

Beautiful cabin, well appointed, modern design, convenient location close to Portree but in the countryside, interesting family history associated with property
Shower in steep sided tub would be difficult for some to get in.

Well equipped, very cozy and amazing place. We are impressed by all the preparation of the owner and the thoughtful preparation of the owner. No faults, we would come again for family trips. Hopefully we didn’t make any disturbance on such a peaceful and beautiful place.

The location - east to find and beautiful views
The twin beds- maybe if there was an option to zip them together to make a double, but still they were comfortable.

The Skeabost Wood Cottage was exceptional! The big windows brought the outside in and the skylights in the bedrooms brought the stars in at night! We did not want to leave!
There was nothing not to like!

This was probably the best equipped place we have stayed in. Everything was fantastic. Lovely crockery, cutlery, furniture , linen , beds. Lovely decor- the right balance of old and new. The location was fantastic. I’d thoroughly recommend staying here

This place is GORGEOUS! Very spacious for our family of 4. Kitchen was so well-stocked and we enjoyed the many games there as well as the Netflix. A short drive into town and to many scenic locations (Trotternish Loop, Dunvegan Castle, etc). Just a perfect place to unwind! Highly recommend!

Skeabost Wood Cottage was a lovely, charming cottage. It was well designed and decorated. The family room has a fireplace and comfortable seating. The bedrooms were comfortable with cozy beds and ample closet space. Bathrooms were nice and updated. The kitchen was well equiped and large. It opens onto a dinning area which has large picture windows to view the lovely surrounding countryside. The cottage is definitely the perfect location to explore all of Skye.
We have visited Scotland for 6 weeks and Skeabost Wood Cottage has been our favorite lodging.
Just wish that we had had more time to stay on Skye at Skeabost Wood Cottage.

Fantastic cozy, comfortable, clean cottage. Located within a few miles of the busy capital of Portree BUT away from the crowds. There is a grocery store a few miles away (Co-Op), in Portree. The personal family touches/decor made you feel like you were witnessing a little Scottish history. The cottage is decorated with a lovely blend of old and new with fun touches of the Highlands-local soaps and goods/decor showcasing the adorable Highland cows. Our family of 3 (adults and teenager) thoroughly enjoyed our stay-it served as the perfect base to explore the Isle of Skye. The beds/sheets/appliances are of high quality. The kitchen is very well appointed and it it came in handy because many of the local restaurants we found were fully booked or closed as we were finishing our day/s of exploration. I didn’t recall seeing there was a washer/dryer BUT we were thrilled it did! I actually don’t think the pictures do the property justice….it is surrounded by green with views of the fields for miles. The nearby 2 person pod looks perfect if we were to have had another couple or older children with us-just a stones throw from the house. The host/s were very responsive. They do provide instant coffee and tea BUT there is a French press & Moka pot-just bring ground coffee & don’t forget to try the fresh, local cream. Would love to return. Thank you for the bubbly & treats!

the cabin was huge and really fantastic. the decor was excellent and the kitchen in particular was very impressive. the open plan of the downstairs area really created a fantastic sense of space. the floor to ceiling windows give spectacular views of the surrounding countryside.
the property is very difficult to spot in the dark.

Very spacious and comfortable cottage. The location is great, very central in Isle of Skye and an ideal basis from
which to do some exploring, whilst also being in the middle of nature. The kitchen was very well equipped and the fireplace is a really nice touch.

Tastefully appointed, clean, neat and tidy. Amenities were of high quality befitting the interior décor. Location made it a good base to explore Skye.
Location a little too close to the main road made sitting out on the deck less peaceful. Could consider moving the property name signboard from gate to fence to make identifying cottage easier.

Fixtures and fittings lovely - beautiful pottery etc.
Welcome message & gifts from the hosts a lovely touch.
Extras left in kitchen.
Our only slight disappointment was the separate annexe, which was one large wooden-clad room, so no separate bathroom facilites and also a little damp.

Lovely modern house with stunning views. Really enjoyed watching the sun come up in the morning. Close to Portree and easy to get to other parts of Skye. Appreciated the small things like having soap, washing up liquid, etc in the house. Kids loved playing in the woods. A great break, thank you!

Une vraie pépite cachée sur l'ile de Skye ! Confort absolu ! Décoration écossaise soignée et cosy , vaisselle ravissante, casseroles Le Creuset, la cuisine est un paradis pour les gens aimant cuisiner comme moi ! Lits très confortables , lave linge et sèche linge à disposition, tout y est jusqu'au dosette de café et plein de petits plus en cuisine ! Canapé et poufs invitent à la relaxation face à la nature ! Gentils cadeaux à l'arrivée ! Tout était parfait ! Je reviendrai avec plaisir !
L'accès un peu dur à trouver à l'arrivée car je n'ai pas vu le message de Charles du fait d'un problème avec mon portable...
Problème vite oublié en découvrant le cottage

Dieses kleine schnucklige Häuschen, hatte alles was das Herz begehrt. Am schönsten war die Aussicht und die abgeschiedene Lage, somit ist auch der Hase zu Besuch gekommen. Kleiner Hinweis: die Betten sind sehr bequem, jedoch muss man sich darauf einstellen, das sie höher sind. Wenn man auf der Bettkante sitz baumelt die Beine in der Luft.
Diese Frage kann ich nur mit einem kurzen „Nix“ beantworten.

De locatie was prachtig, heerlijk rustig en afgelegen, en toch maar 15 minuten vanaf Portree. De cottage was van alle gemakken voorzien. Toen we aankwamen lag er tablet (soort Schotse fudge) en prosecco voor ons klaar. Er was een leuke spelletjeskast en meerdere boekenkasten (inclusief handige wandelboekjes).
We hadden liever een wat goedkoper verblijf.

Nous avons passé un séjour de 4 nuits fantastique. Le cottage est très bien équipé et très bien décoré. Des plaids, des oreillers, des fauteuils pour se détendre ont été appréciés. A 4, dont 2 enfants de 5 et 10 ans, nous avions de la place pour jouer, lire... La cuisine est complète, on peut tout cuisiner avec des éléments de qualité ! Les lits sont très confortables et le volet des velux permet de bien couper la lumière. Bien qu'au calme, le cottage est très bien situé par rapport aux différents lieux que nous souhaitions voir. Les mangeoires à oiseaux permettent de les observer, c'était très apaisant. Les instructions pour trouver le logement étaient très claires. Nous n'avions pas envie de partir !
Nous avons TOUT apprécié, ce lieu est exceptionnel.
Il faut juste savoir que les lits sont assez hauts (pour notre fils de 5 ans nous avons ajouté une chaise pour qu'il monte et descende en sécurité) et que la troisième chambre (que nous n'avons pas utilisée) est située hors du cottage au bout d'un petit chemin de 20 mètres.
