Situated on the Sleat Peninsula, this incredible cottage offers an enviable base from which to explore the Isle of Skye, hosting a total of four guests and perfect for a small family or couple. The property is set on an elevated position with a backdrop of the sea, allowing you to step out and begin a long, rewarding hike with immediate sea views. Make your way up to Armadale (1 mile), a waterside hamlet with a pretty beach. The hamlet is home to a vibrant water sports scene and plenty of rare seabirds including oystercatchers, rock doves and puffins. From here you can also take a passenger ferry over to Mallaig (6.5 miles), a village on the mainland. Back on Skye, take a walk along the southern coastal path to reach The Point of Sleat (5 miles), a spot with a spectacular white sand beach, a small gorge and rugged rock formations leading to impeccable views.

Enhanced by the light that floods into the property, this single-storey cottage is bright and cheerful. Step into the lounge, an inviting room with comfy sofas, a Smart TV and a coal-effect electric fire that you can switch on to create a warm, welcoming glow when the weather’s cold outside. Next door, a kitchen/diner is spacious for all your cooking needs. Pick up some fresh ingredients on your travels and rustle up something tasty at mealtimes. Move back into the hallway to reach two bedrooms and a refreshing family bathroom. The bedrooms are set up as one double and one twin, both with comfy mattresses and soft linens to sink into at each day’s end.

Admire the panoramic sea views that surround the property from your very own patio space. The paved patio features a small lawn beside it and outdoor furniture made for alfresco afternoons and evenings with incredible Scottish scenery in the backdrop.

A little piece of magic in Skye. Upon arrival at Glen Nevis, the view exceeded our expectations. Once inside the warm, clean and well maintained cottage our holiday began. We settled in and made ourselves at home, which was easy in our new home from home. The kitchen was well stocked and everything was easy to find. Our bedrooms were comfortable Read moreand the decor was themed throughout. The cottage had lots of information about the local area and of further afield. The local convenience store was our amazing find, appealing to those who are visiting the area. Our host, Janette was friendly and kept in touch throughout our stay. Thank you again for a wonderful week in Skye. Hide

Loch Nibheis is a beautiful cottage with stunning views. There is a TV but we didn't switch it on once, we literally turned out backs and enjoyed the fabulous views ever changing with the different weather and light. The furnishings in the cottage are high quality and very comfortable. It was spotless and we felt at home immediately. The kitchen iRead mores very well equipped too. Easy to find, parking and easy to access. The host is very friendly and makes an effort to be in touch, even popping round to say hello and check everything was ok. Compared to many cottages this is good value as prices seem to have gone crazy in some places. The area is peaceful, lots of beautiful drives and walks close by. We had a lovely week and definitely recommend the cottage. Hide

We had a great week on the Isle of Skye, managing to work visits around the weather. The cottage was a good base for the south of the island, with all the facilities we could need and stunning views across to the mainland.
