Lovely Cottage in a Beautiful Place
Seashell is a delightful cottage, immaculately kept and elegantly furnished, poised over a small bay on the edge of the Hebridean sea. We were looking for peace and beauty following a stressful year and we found it at Seashell and in the entirety of the Fiskivaig and Carbost area.

Off Grid Weeks Holiday
Excellent cottage with stunning views and sunsets. Location out of the way, so very quiet. 4 miles from nearest hamlet/village of Carbost with good pub and a community shop. Carbost is also where you find the Talisker Distillery. The cottage has all the necessary items to cater for a weeks stay. Would recommend anyone who goes, goes self suffiencent as nearest supermarkets are in Portree and Broadford. We did take our own air fryer as this was the only thing lacking. It was good to have the american style fridge freezer to store all the food we had taken. Cottage is decorated beautifully. Nice gardens - it would have been nice to see the fantastic view from the dining table when eating, but the view was obstructed by the canopy of a tree ! It was great to see 2 deer in the garden on our last day. Thanks for a great stay and the weather was kind to us.

Seashell Cottage
A lovely property with wonderful views but in need of some updating especially the bathrooms and heating. Property was cold and we had to ask for heating in lounge dining area to be increased but old storage heater in main bedroom was too hot and could not be turned down. We also had a water leak in kitchen from dishwasher. As I said a lovely cottage but in need of a lot of TLC.

The house was even better than the photos suggested. The views were absolutely amazing. Perhaps slightly further from the sea shore than I thought but a 5 minute easy walk. Very well equipped with both equipment and provisions. Shame about all the instructions framed on the wall, but maybe people wouldn't read a file. We had a great stay.

This cottage is just as described, a fantastic location and extremely well appointed for a stay in Skye. The views at either end of the day are tremendous. I would recommend this cottage and Skye to everyone. I have just booked for next Easter, this will be our third year in a row.

No words to describe how beautiful is Isle of Sky. The cottage is in awesome location and all the family enjoyed staying in it and enjoying the views from the living room. Absolutely no regrets traveling 12 hours with a car all the way from London

Peace and quiet, home from home.
Seashell was warm and cosy, tucked away in a quiet corner of Skye. The cottage had all you could need for a relaxing stay. The location near the beach, with views to the west, was perfect.

Stunning location, beautifully designed with fantastic views of the sea. V warm.
We spent a superb New Year week at the Seashell with our 2 dogs. There are loads of beautiful walks all over Skye, and we travelled about most days. The Seashell has wonderful views through lovely picture windows over the sea (from several rooms). A lovely place, very well equipped, v clean and well set up. In all we had a great holiday. We highly recommend The Seashell.

Luxury at your fingertips
My first time to the Isle of Skye and the Seashell was superb. The Seashell has every luxury your require and even more with the peace and quiet overlooking beautiful views. It is a fabulous bolthole to all the exploring of the Isle and there is plenty to see. I went in March and very few places are open so made my packed lunch and had a fabulous time. The weather was lovely as well. I even got to see the northern lights. Thank you for a fabulous stay - only downside the garden is not secure but luckily my dog follows me around like a shadow

Tolles Haus an ruhiger Lage
Das Haus bietet alles: Eine tolle Aussicht. Guten Zugang zur Meeresbucht. Wer Ruhe sucht und keine Touristenströme möchte, ist hier an der richtigen Adresse. Es ist der optimale Ausgangsort, um die Isle of Skye erkunden zu können. Beim Einkauf sollte man möglichst nichts vergessen, da der nächste Einkaufsshop über eine halbe Stunde enfernt ist. Wenn es kühl ist ist es empfehlenswert, warme Kleidung dabei zu haben. Auch für die Hunde ist das Haus und der Garten ein wahres Paradies. Ausreichende Umzäunung und wenige Treppen im Hausinnern sind garantiert.

Wir kommen wieder !
Unsere Bewertung sagt alles. Wir hätten uns keine bessere Unterkunft wünschen können. Das Seashell Cottage ist modern eingerichtet, sauber, alles war im Haus vorhanden. Die freie Sicht in die Bucht Fiscavaig war überwältigend . Auf der Insel gibt es viel zu entdecken. Hierzu gibt es bereits ausreichend Berichte. Wie schon gesagt, wir kommen wieder.
