Great base for touring this area of the Highlands and easy access to Skye. The cottage is well cared for with all you would need. A short drive into Kyle has Hector's Bothy and Fisherman's Kitchen for good food. The well stocked Spar is a short walk from the cottage so no worries about buying any provisions. A good place for a holiday. Janet & Ian

Cozy, clean and spacious for two adults and two teens and even snacks were laid out for our arrival. Everything was well provided for us, including a store near by! We had no idea the views would be so lovely and we enjoyed the heat of the coal fireplace our first night. My son enjoyed his morning runs up the local hills and we enjoyed hopping over to Skye to day trip. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our family on our first trip to Scotland. We hope to be back and would definately visit again!
