About this property

The Barn, Culnacnoc, Portree, Skye

The Barn is a great place to stay if you are looking to have a spacious quiet location.
The views are spectacular, on a clear day you can see across to the mainland and the mountains there. There is a path down to the shoreline at the end of the track which is very popular with tourists and a known beauty spot on the Island.
The Barn it's self is fully equipped. The kitchen has a dishwasher, fridge freezer, oven and hob wooden work surfaces and feels homely.
A great place for entertaining and games or for just relaxing.
There are 2 separate bathrooms so no cuing.
There is a working fire place for cosying up in the winter.
The views from the bedrooms fill you with peace. Here the world is a bit more raw, a bit more exciting and exposed.
Free WIFI, Sky TV and the towels and linen are provided for you. We have had some great feedback from guests staying here and we look forward to having you enjoy it as much as they did.
Pet Friendly - Pets are allowed in this property but they will be charged at £10 per night per pet to a maximum of 3 pets. We kindly ask if you can keep your pet off the furniture and beds for the duration of your stay. Must be crated or kenneled if left unattended, and must be on a current veterinarian approved flea & tick treatment.

A perfect cottage in Skye
This cottage stay was a family favorite for sure! It is private, with incredible views and walks right out the back door. The cottage itself is well-stocked and beautifully decorated -- we loved every bit of our stay at The Barn. If we ever make it back to Skye, we will definitely stay there again!

Gorgeous home in a fabulous location!
You absolutely cannot beat the location of this home--close to Fairy Glen, Fairy Pools, minutes from Quiraing and Man of Storr. Quiet and private, with rolling hills as your view and a few minute hike down tot he coastline. The house was spotless and comfortable. This was our favorite property that we stayed at during our two week tour of Scotland. Highly recommend, and we would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Stunning retreat
We can’t say enough good things about Cat, Kel and their crew. They helped us make arrangements beyond just lodging and really connected us to the communities on Skye. The Barn is a beautiful modern adaptation of a historic structure and the setting and trail location are spectacular.

Lovely, secluded property
Lovely property, well maintained, very clean and well kept. We stayed when the weather was quite rainy and extra blustery, so the only small challenge was navigating our car down the single track ruts to the property (standing water hid the potholes!) It is extremely secluded which we loved.

Awesome location
Our stay at The Barn was magical. The views were spectacular and the stars at night were amazing. The only downside was that we only stayed 3 nights and could’ve stayed a week. Very peaceful stay, well equipped accommodation, comfortable beds and a kitchen with all the modern conveniences. 5+ stars

Brilliant stay
I’ve been coming to Skye for 15 years and have stayed all over the island. The cottage is probably situated in one of the nicest spots. The cottage was spotless and felt like home throughout our weeks stay. We hope to come back and stay again! Thank you for having us.

This Skye property was one of my favorite VRBOs of all time. We explored Skye during the day and came home to the most cozy house with beautiful views in every direction. It was amazing!
