Styled as a traditional Scottish longhouse and located less than 1 mile from Uig, this holiday let has been designed to blend in perfectly with the dramatic landscape. North Skye is best known for incredible landmarks such as the Rha waterfalls, Castle Ewen and the Fairy Glen so there is plenty to explore less than 4 miles away.

This property is an architectural masterpiece with high vaulted ceilings, wooden floors and fresh decor. The open-plan living space is filled with natural light from the windows, with views of the surrounding glen.

Accessed via a few steps and warmed by a charming wood burner, you'll be able to relax and unwind in utter comfort after a busy day. Climb the wooden staircase from the hallway to reach the mezzanine level overlooking the living area; a wonderful spot for admiring the countryside views. The bedrooms are located at either end of the house on both levels. On the ground floor you'll find a double bedroom with en-suite shower, a twin bedroom and the main bathroom, with windows facing the glen. The master king-size bedroom with en-suite shower and the family bedroom are upstairs on the first floor with a separate WC.

 

Outside, the private garden has a slate patio that is ideal for al fresco dining or drinks under the stars.

Beautifully situated property, with lots of natural light and fabulous views. Kitchen is well equipped. Downstairs bedrooms are perfect for guests with reduced mobility Shop/restaurants are a fair walk, a car journey for most people. Fairy Glen is only a few minutes walk and is fabulous, regardless of weather!

Great location near the fairy glen, scenery is stunning everywhere you looked, cottage was very roomy for 8 and dogs. Kitchen was well equipped with a large table to eat round. I was in a wheelchair and the inside was perfect. However there was a slight lip at the door for 50 quid you could provide a ramp.

Lovely house but fixtures & fittings of a poor standard and the floors are creaky. There was no outside furniture as this was damaged in the recent storm. With a bit more care and attention this would be a fabulous house.

This home is outstanding, really well equipped throughout in a beautiful setting. Easy to access all sights and local landmarks. The local shop at the bottom of the hill is also very well stocked so id recommend using that otherwise its a trip to Portree. The Uig hotel for food was also fantastic. We had a great holiday.
