Lovely large property for family stay

We had a super stay at Ardmore cottage. The 3 bed property was much larger than expected, was extremely comfortable and had everything we needed for self catering stay. Broadford is a great base for exploring Skye and Kyle of Lochalsh and we would happily stay at Ardmore again.

Very nice and spacious house on Skye

Located in a quiet area in Broadford, yet very close to local restaurants and supermarkets, we found the cottage an excellent home base for our travels on Skye. Very friendly host, thanks again for the tip to visit Elgol! We spent a great day doing the boat trip to Loch Coruisk, even seeing seals and dolphins on the way.

Perfect Week in Skye

We are so thankful we booked this property. It was spacious, well appointed and better than the pictures. Sunrises and Sunsets were beautiful over the water and mountain. The views were fantastic and Ian was a delight to communicate with. Especially for food recommendations, which we appreciated. Broadford had everything we needed and was central to all our travels. We were able to walk to the end of the road for food and a very short walk to access to the beach to explore tide pools each night. We had a sunny week with no midges and would absolutely return.

Amazing & Unforgettable

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ardmore. It was beautiful and really made our holiday extra special. It was extremely clean, welcoming and very spacious. We were touched by the welcome pack of tea, coffee, biscuits and fruit which was greatly appreciated after our long journey. It’s in a perfect location for exploring the picturesque Isle of Skye with places to eat nearby as well as a very convenient supermarket and petrol station. Everything had been thought of and we felt totally at home, so much so, we did not want to leave. It has set the bar high for any future accommodation booked elsewhere. We hope to return again one day. Thank you Ian and Anne for such perfect accommodation.

Fantastic place to stay

An early Christmas surprise for our mum and dad made even more special as house was so homely. So much that my dad didn't want to leave. Every aspect of house was well designed, an excellent kitchen with all the essentials, beautiful bathrooms and luxurious bedrooms. Cozy and warm throughout and was perfect for our elderly parents.

Great Location for exploring Skye and boating

The property is a credit to the owner, we had a great time. Milk, sugar coffee, tea, and a bag of ice etc waiting for us on arrival, also a lovely basket of fresh fruit, we cannot fault the property. Ample parking and a quality outdoor hose pipe was great for hosing my Rib down after a trip out to sea. We met Ian the owner who was lovely.

Fabulous cottage, Very helpful owner, perfect location

Ardmore is simply a stunning property, it has absolutely everything you need, it is spacious, classy and warm... even in mid February, the views from the cottage are breathtaking. It is in a great location, quiet but near enough to walk to restaurants and a perfect base for exploring the island. The owner Ian was welcoming and friendly, he went out of his way to come and help us.. even in the pouring rain! He regaled us with a couple of funny stories and recommendations for restaurants and local walks. We would highly recommend a stay here.

Great place for a Christmas break

We stayed for 7-days over Christmas 2021 and had a wonderful time. A beautifully presented property in an ideal location for touring. Everything was spot-on, just as listed, couldn't fault it. Very warm and cosy especially considering it was winter. The Christmas tree and decorations were a really nice touch and much appreciated. The Isle of Skye was stunning as expected - we were quite surprised just how quiet the roads were as we thought there would be more tourists (like us!) having Christmas breaks there. We would highly recommend Ard More to anyone.
