Nice cottage with a great view

We spent a wonderful week on Skye. Betty gave us a very hearty welcome, she was very friendly and helpful. The house has everything you need and a terrific view of the landscape. It is a good starting point for excursions and hikes in the north and west of Skye and not far from Portree.

Loved Betty's cottage

We stayed for a week and found it quite easy to catch the bus at Betty's gate into Portree. From Portree we could easily travel all around the Trotternish Peninsula. We even had a walk toward Skeabost and discovered St. Columba's Island with ancient relics on it. Betty was gracious and friendly. Some of the people in our party had a sensitivity to fragrances and had an adverse reaction to the cleaning products that had been used before we came. We didn't think to ask about that. Fresh air through the week diminished scent. Betty went above and beyond offering tea, flowers and rides.

Ein herzlicher Dank an Betty

Wir wurden von Betty mit einer wundervollen Tasse Tee empfangen und fühlten uns sofort sehr willkommen. Das Ferienhaus liegt bezaubernd schön, ist perfekt ausstaffiert, sehr sauber und gemütlich. An kühlen Tagen spendet der Ofen behagliche Wärme. Ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt.

une excellente base pour visiter Skye

Le cottage est très bien placé pour visiter toute l’île, au calme avec une vue superbe sur un bras de mer et les montagnes, mais pas loin de la route principale et à 15mn des commerces de Portree. Le cottage est très confortable avec tout ce qui est nécessaire (cuisine, salle de bains, laver et sécher le linge, livres …) il a en grande partie été rénové récemment. La propriétaire est très sympathique et accueillante, elle habite à 200m. Notre seul petit problème pendant le séjour a été résolu très vite. Nous sommes restés une semaine pour visiter l’île et randonner, nous étions tristes de partir. Nous nous sommes sentis bien à cet endroit et nous recommandons vivement ce cottage.

Wonderful house and lovely owner

Betty's bungalow was comfortable and homely. It was immaculately clean and in the perfect situation to explore all parts of Skye. We didn't need any help but Betty was very close on hand to provide any assistance. The property overlooked the loch and the sheep in the adjoining field. We all really enjoyed our stay and the peace and tranquility it provides
