Ask a questionAbout Alison Phillips
We have always loved holidaying in Scotland and bought The Old Croft House on a whim when we saw it (as a derelict cottage) and fell in love with it and its wonderful location!
Alison Phillips purchased this cottage in 2003
Why Alison Phillips chose The Hebrides
Skye is a beautiful island and Sleat is 'the garden of Skye' and aptly named as the greenest part of the island. The cottage is located in Aird, a village on the southerly most tip of Skye and we have amazing views out to Eigg & Rhum & Ardnamurchan. It is a truly magical place to stay & we love it!
What makes this cottage unique
We go for a rest from the world, peace and tranquility, wild storms, beautiful sunsets and great wildlife & walks.
