A lovely gem of a crofters’ cottage. A great place to stop just up the road from The Old Man of Storr, with an amazing view. The cottage is comfortable, clean and has everything you could need. We can’t wait to return!

Lovely crofters cottage with beautiful views from every window, short walk to stunning rocky beach called Brothers point, short drive to The Quirang mountain range. Warm and cosy with wood burner on and comfortable beds, the bathroom was great news looking and sparkly clean.
