A perfect place to be with nature. The Sheiling offers all the comforts needed for a perfect gateway. Hosts were so lovely and conscientious of sustainability. The Sheiling is quietly tucked into the hillside overlooking Dunvegan Loch with views of the castle, Coral Beach, Cuillin Montains and the Isle of Harris.

We had a fantastic stay at the Sheiling Skye. Beautiful cottage in a stunning location with lots of amazing sights and walks to do. The site had its own private beach, so fantastic for lazy relaxing days, with the chance for a lovely bracing swim if you are up for it! Sarah, John and Thomas were great hosts and made sure that we were well looked after supplied.

The cabin was very clean and well equipped. The view of the Loch was fantastic and we were even lucky enough to see some wildlife (buzzards, dolphins and a seal).
