Lovely setting
Very pleasant cottage in lovely setting. Well equipped and very dog friendly. Just a shame the final part of the road is so poor, pot holes and badly marked passing places for 3.5 miles not good in a low slung car!

Beautiful property in stunning location
The Old Croft House was just perfect, immaculately clean, comfortable and in a stunning location. The views from the property were amazing. It was everything we wanted from our visit to Skye. It really is a home from home property and we would definately stay there again. The enclosed garden was perfect for our dog, he loved it as much as us.

Nice Scottish bungalow
Very old house that has been fabulously updated. Kitchen is gorgeous with all amenities, aga wood burning stove was warm and toasty and added just the right touch to the ambiance . Beds were comfortable. House was warm and the view was to die for. A bit scary driving in, and quite far from amenities but thats what you get and thats what we paid for. Thanks Alison for all your help with medical issues. Made a big difference! Love stay! Allison, i wanted to let you know I found the Beiderlack blankets available stateside. Bought one and love it. Still searching for the cow with painted hair you had at your house. If you can let me know where to get one of him, id love it. So cute . Thanks agian for a lovely stay!!!

Absolutely stunning views and lovely cottage
We were charmed by the beauty of The Old Croft House and it's views. It was very neatly appointed and had a small working fireplace that we used with delight. We are already plotting to return and will treasure our memories there for life.

Perfect cottage with amazing sea views
We had a peaceful and relaxing stay.The cottage was warm and cosy and had everything we needed and more. Great host who kept us up to date every step of the holiday, including covid 19 information, which the cottage was more than ready for and we had no concerns. The welcome pack was much appreciated after our long drive. My partner was so excited to have a buzzard visit the garden, who even sat and posed for some amazing photos. The garden was all enclosed and dog friendly. Some great walks nearby and the private little beach was special. Would definitely recommend and if ever in Skye again I wouldnt hesitate to book The Old Croft House Again.

Peace and tranquillity in abundance
Simply stunning location and a lovely little house that had everything we needed. Much time was spend in the garden just looking at the views. Brilliant secure garden for the dogs and the cove was an added bonus for all of us. Would highly recommend to anyone that wants to get away from it all.

A trip to stay in a little piece of paradise
The Croft was wonderful, the scenery magnificent, the weather unbelievably warm and sunny. We wanted to get away from it all and recharge our batteries and we left after a week having had the most amazing time in our first trip to Skye. The peace, tranquility and scenery were just what we needed.Everything about the stay was perfect from booking, paying, directions, instructions for the croft. Everything we needed was there for us. Vixen our Patterdale Terrier had a wonderful time in the garden which is almost terrier proof. I can't recommend this property highly enough.

A beautiful cottage, comfortable and very well equipped, in the most stunning location near the bay. We had a fantastic week, walking and sightseeing and eating meals in the garden overlooking the water. Can't wait to go back.

Traumhafte Lage im wundervollen Cottage
Gepflegter Garten, herrliche Aussicht auf das Meer, gemütliches, kleines Cottage, 2 Minuten zum einsamen steinigen Strand, super ruhige Lage am Ende einer Sackgasse. Was braucht man mehr für einen erholsamen Urlaub. Netter Kontakt zur Vermieterin Alison, die sich gleich um alles gekümmert hat. Wir kommen gern wieder!

Großartiges Ferienhaus im ruhigeren Teil der Isle of Skye
Wir haben eine wunderschöne Woche in diesem gemütlichen Ferienhaus verbracht. Das Haus bietet sämtlichen Komfort und wunderschöne Ausblicke auf den Atlantik. Es ist nicht ganz so einsam gelegen wie die Fotos vermuten lassen, es sind ein paar Häuschen in der Umgebung. Sehr nette Nachbarn. Wir haben es immer sehr genossen vom Trubel der restlichen Insel wieder zurück in dieses entspannte Paradies zurückzukehren. Toll auch für die Kinder mit dem großen Garten und den angrenzenden Feldern mit Zugang zum Meer, wo wir Delfine, Roben und Otter gesehen haben. Wir kommen gerne wieder!
