We loved staying in this property. The history of the croft along with very comfortable accommodations and unparalleled surroundings made this an unforgettable stay.
This was a lovely property. Our family of 5 was very comfortable and enjoyed the beautiful views. Helen was very responsive and helpful. I highly recommend this property for your next visit to the Isle of Skye.
We had a great stay!The pictures don't do the place justice, especially the view from the living room is spectacular. The kitchen was equipped with everything one might need and everything was spotless. The rooms are cozy and the showers hot with good water pressure.Check in was easy and the communication with Helen as well.All in all a great stay and we hope to come again!
We had the best stay in Helen's home. It is very comfortable, cosy, warm and the views - well they are spectacular. The kitchen is very well stocked. We explored all over Skye and then found that Knock Castle and Torabhaig distillery were on our doorstep. Highly recommend this home, we would love go back.
Itâs all about the beautiful view from this lovely cottage! Everything you need is there. Also not in the busy busy bits of Skye so perfect to relax. We had great weather and no midges so canât complain! Only thing would be, lack of outdoor seating, a sturdy picnic table across the track on the grass wouldâve been perfect since we had sun everyday.
Lovely property with beautiful views of the Sound of Sleat.
Our family had a wonderful stay at the little croft house in Sleat. The cottage, surrounded by fields with grazing sheep, was cozy, clean and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was well equipped and included even a washing machine. The views across the Sound of Sleat towards the mainland were spectacular. Although Sleat often gets overlooked when booking accomodations on Skye, it is a great place from which to explore the Island and is within walking distance of the Torabhaig distillery. We highly recommend this cottage and will certainly try to stay here again in the future.
Helen and the croft cottage was simply amazing! The location was perfect, and the view from the living room was STUNNING.
We would absolutely stay here again.
The cottage was wonderful.My wife and I stayed for 4 nights and would have stayed longer but for family commitments. Everything we needed to make our stay comfortable was provided and the cottage was immaculate.The location was perfect, close enough to the road to be easily accessible but far enough from it to not hear passing traffic, all we heard was the occasional bleating of the neighbouring sheep and the tweeting of the birds. Having now discovered West Cottage as regular visitors to Skye and Lochaber we have added it to our list of, "we will be back" self catering cottages, if it's available.culate. stayccomfortable
Idyllic cottage with one of the best views of the Sound of Sleat. A peaceful haven away from the busy spots of Skye, and within reach of some of the most beautiful parts of the mainland like Glenelg and Sandaig. Great communication by the owner. My second visit and I will definitely be returning.
We were thrilled with our stay at this authentic crofters cottage. On an increasingly crowded Skye, its location is perfect as it is sited so you see or hear no other visitors âŠ. Only the vistas, sheep, and the sea. It is close to amenities, well appointed, and clean; the books are a treasure! Fabulous cottage; we will be back!
We could not have enjoyed our stay at Helen's cottage more. Everything was perfectly clean, and very simply and beautifully appointed. The decor was calming and thoughtful. We enjoyed using the lovely Isle of Skye dishware, sitting by the fireplace in the evenings, contemplating the beautiful views of the sound in the large and window-filled living area. Helen provided excellent recommendations and clear instructions, and was a pleasure to communicate with. I hope we will have a chance to return someday! It's one of the prettiest places we have ever stayed.
We absolutely loved West Cottage. It has been refurbished to a very high standard whilst keeping the authentic âCroftâ feel. The downstairs ensuite bedroom was perfect for my 92 year old Mum & the view from the sitting room is just breathtaking - even better when the weatherâs good enough to enjoy the view sitting outside with a gin & tonic (which it was this week!)
...and that includes two "luxury" hotels. Frank and Helen's space is wonderful and the perfect base-camp for Isle of Skye. Great kitchen (lots of extras in the pantry so look before you shop). Everything works perfectly. Quiet location, amazing views, beautiful mattress and linens, and the wood-stove and library were the best wind-down after longs days of hiking and fishing. We are deeply grateful to Frank and Helen for sharing their space with us.
We loved staying in Teangue at this cottage. It was very well appointed and extremely comfortable. The living room is spacious with a reading area and large sliding glass doors with lovely views across to the water and mountains beyond. There is a downstairs double bedroom with en suite bathroom, and two bedrooms and a shared bathroom upstairs. Close to the Armadale ferry - just 20 mins to Mallaig, and a short drive from Broadford. Nock castle is worth exploring - you can see it from the cottage and when the tide is out the shoreline makes for interesting rock pool exploration! Highly recommend!
Great cottage with everything you need in a beautiful part of the Isle. Sleat is fantastic as a point to see the rest of the island. Sleat Peninsula itself is beautiful. We even toured the finally opened Torabhaig distillery in its first week of opening. The beach down by Torabhaig is a must when tide is out. The cottage itself has all the amenities including great wifi. The views were amazing and Helen was very helpful. Very simple process to check in and check out. Great holiday for relaxing, sightseeing and walking. Highly recommend the cottage and Isle of Skye at this time of year to avoid the tourism rush. We loved it.
Wir können dieses Haus absolut empfehlen! Die Lage ist perfekt, der Ausblick aus dem Wohnzimmer fantastisch. Helens Anfahrtsbeschreibung ist klar formuliert und wir haben das Haus schnell gefunden. Die KĂŒche ist super ausgestattet! Wir haben uns selbst bekocht und es ist alles vorhanden. Sogar Salz und Pfeffer befand sich im Schrank. Die Isle of Skye ist auch im Herbst wunderschön und wir hatten gutes Wetter.
Ein sehr gemĂŒtliches, sauberes und liebevoll eingerichtetes Haus. Der Ausblick ist grandios. Beim KĂŒchenequipment hat nichts gefehlt. Alles war
Der Check-in war absolut unproblematisch. Die Gastgeber waren in unserem Aufenthalt selbst nicht da, haben sich aber 2x telefonisch erkundigt, ob alles in Ordnung ist.
Just out of the way of the throngs of tourists, this location is ideal. While we drove out to Trotternish and surroundings a couple of times, what really astounded us was just how gorgeous this part of Skye is. We had a fantastic time exploring the area, and would 100% recommend this location for ease of movement, access to all points of Skye, and comfort. Hosts were very understanding after I had trouble finding the key (my own fault! - didn't read all the details closely!). Kind folks.
