Idyllically situated in Braes near Portree, our traditional Skye crofter’s cottage has been sympathetically renovated, offering luxury accommodation.
Kirsty’s Cottage is located by the seashore, just a 3 minute walk, with stunning views over Loch Sligachan towards Glamaig and the Cuillin hills.
Double and Twin bedroom upstairs. The Sun-room is ideal for relaxing or dining and enjoying views to the seashore where seals bask on the rocks. The sitting room has a wood burning stove and there is also under-floor heating through to the kitchen/diner.
There is a spacious, enclosed garden with patio area – ideal for all the family.
Climbing, walking and sight-seeing are all available on the doorstep. Wildlife is all around you. From the Sun-room you can watch Seals laze on a rock at the water’s edge, using our 80mm Monocular. When you are out, always keep an eye out for a glimpse of an Otter, a Golden Eagle, or even a Sea Eagle. The deserted shore of Loch Sligachan, ideal for beach combing is a short stroll. A sandy beach ideal for swimming and picnics is also within easy reach, approximately a 20 minute walk.
