Impeccable stay in the Isle of Skye
Thank you Nate and Lizzie for hosting us! The location of the cabin is a perfect starting point for exploring the Isle of Skye. We loved the thoughtful touches upon arrival, and we had everything we needed for a comfortable and quiet stay there. We will be back!

2 day stay - loved it!
The property was very clean, and the hosts provided us with plenty of cookware to make meals plus an extensive book on local sightseeing, walks, and places to eat! Modern interior, very warm and cosy, and the bathroom/shower was very comfortable (no problems with hot water!). Lively views from the large windows and curtains to cover up the windows at night. Waking up to views of the hills was really special. Thanks very much!

Sheep and mountains
This cabin worked out well for our plans on the island. It's a great location for getting an early start on the best hikes. It was very comfortable and had a great view of the mountains. Although it's near the owners house, it is positioned to have a nice amount of privacy. Elizabeth was quick to respond to any questions we had and very helpful. We enjoyed some of the items in our welcome basket that she prepared as well. The only disadvantage of staying up in Staffin is that food options are limited so you'll need to plan your meals well while you are near Portree. We would gladly stay here again.

Komfortabel und ruhig
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt mit 6 Übernachtungen sehr genossen. Das Häuschen ist klein aber fein und gut ausgestattet. Alles sehr sauber. Die Umgebung ist grandios. Vom Bett aus ist ein wunderbarer Blick auf das Bergpanorama. Vor dem Fenster grasen friedlich die Schafe. Nur 10 Minuten Fußweg zum Strand. Die Gastgeber sehr diskret,. Absolut empfehlenswert für Naturliebhaber!

Perfect honeymoon stay!
My partner and I stayed for 3 nights as part of our honeymoon in Scotland and this was the highlight of our trip. The cabin was a perfect place to relax and easily accessible to countless activities in isle of skye. All the touches to the cabin were so thoughtful and we had everything we needed. In fact, we needed up spending an afternoon at the cabin playing scrabble and enjoying the views as we were so comfortable there. Thank you so much Lizzie. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend.

Perfect Place to Stay
We had an amazing time! Everything was exactly as described (or even better - my personal highlight was the coffee machine). You can really see the love our hosts put into the cabin. The location is perfect to explore the most beautiful places on the Isle of Skye. The weather wasn't great during our stay, so we really enjoyed relaxing in the warm, comfortable cabin and looking out on the beautiful landscape after a day of hiking. We also loved the thoughtful welcome gifts. Lizzie was a great host and I would highly recommend staying in the cabin! Thank you for everything!

OMG the views!
This was the cutest little hidden getaway. The cabin was nicely decorated and the views as you sit in the couch was breathtaking and our favourite place to sit. We had a little fire outside while we ate supper and was truly home away from home. Lizzie the host went out of her way to make it comfortable by attending to some of my concerns (without even being asked). They left an amazing little welcome package and though my sister and I do not drink or eat sugar so we did not get to take full advantage, it did not go unnoticed! Thank you for the wonderful stay and definitely a highlight of the trip. Thank you Lizzie!

Quiraing cozy cottage
This was a lovely studio cottage. We stayed for three days and found this to be a great location. We made full use of the kitchen to cook up meals. All necessary items were there. Loved watching the sheep in the pasture next door. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to others.

The property is amazing and well located. It is near the local buses (57A and 57C) that pass fairly frequently. There is also the cafe the hungry gull that I highly suggest going! The locals are also really friendly.

A Little Paradise
The small cabin we rented was a marvel of efficiency and a simple, beautiful design, placed in a meadow that faced mountains and friendly, grazing sheep. The place had everything we needed, including fine welcome gifts of locally made products. The locals were extraordinarily friendly. Elizabeth was very helpful and available to answer any questions we had. This is a place I will not forget.

Unterkunft mit schönem Ausblick
Eine wunderschöne kleine Unterkunft ("cabin") im Nordosten der Insel Skye mit tollem Blick auf eine Wiese mit Schafen! Davor gibt es eine Terrasse und einen kleinen Garten. Die Küche hatte alles, was man für ein paar Tage zur Selbstversorgung benötigt. Wir empfehlen die Unterkunft auf jeden Fall weiter!

Idyllic
Trotternish is the place of stories and this VRBO is your gateway. With incredible views of the Quiraing right from the cabin, this clean studio venue was wonderful for our getaway. The host and hostess made sure everything was ready for us. They had a welcome package and a full booklet of pamphlets to help you get to know the opportunities in the area. It's proximity to the Quiraing Hiking area as well as An Corran beach were great. You are also a short drive from the Old Man of Storr, Kilt Rock, and Lealt Falls to name a few others. The drive to and from Portree took a little time, but the scenery made it a journey instead of a burden. We spent time across the Isle of Skye as well as other parts of the Highlands and came away thankful that the bulk of our stay was in Staffin. Despite being situated just in front of a farmhouse, the cabin felt very private, since the windows all faced away from the buildings in close proximity. You can't beat the view that you enjoy every morning, afternoon, and evening. We cooked several meals and found the kitchen to have everything we needed. The small couch next to a small library of games and birding books were enjoyed during our stay. The only drawback of the location was the heat. It was unseasonably warm during our stay and despite following directions of opening the bathroom window and door while shutting all the curtains, it was very very warm in the cabin by the afternoon and into the evening. Regardless, we hope to return!

Best Cabin on Skye
If this cabin is available during your stay on Skye - book it right now. This quaint cabin on the base of the Quiraing has absolutely spectacular views of the hillsides, the Quiraing, and the surreal beauty that Skye has to offer. Lizzie was absolutely amazing to work with - she is very responsive, kind, and even met us when we checked in to make sure we were settled! She and her husband Nate have a gem of place, and have quite a good thing going with their businesses. We would absolutely stay here again as we loved every second of our stay!
