We loved our stay here in Portree! The house was perfect and very spacious and comfortable. Very convenient to town and a great spot to launch our day adventures around Skye. The views are lovely. The house is not directly on the beach and there wasn’t access to the shore without going past another house and it is near the road so there wasn’t access some traffic noise, but minimal. I would stay here again and recommend this great spot to anyone!

Lovely Property

We had a lovely stay, the house had everything we needed and comfortably accommodated 6 adults, the downstairs bedrooms/bathrooms were perfect for our elderly parents. The accommodation was clean and the bedrooms were extremely comfortable. The view was fantastic and constantly changing. We would definitely stay here again.

Delightful Stay!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We would rate it a 10 if possible. The space was fantastic for 4 of us traveling together. The location was excellent to work out of while visiting all of Isle of Skye. This is a gem and we highly recommend it. Book right away so you do lot lose the opportunity to stay here.

Thank you Heidi, it was a pleasure to host you. Unfortunately for a couple of reasons, we no longer advertise on this platform, but on another platform that works better for us as hosts, and just as well for guests. Regards

A wonderful house in Portree!

The house was just as advertised and it was lovely. The photos don’t do the amazing view justice, and the house is also much bigger than I thought it would be! It was incredibly clean and Alex was great to communicate with! We hope to come back for another stay!

Lovely, spacious cottage with wonderful views.

This is a lovely house with stunning views. The house was spacious with plenty of room for 2 adults and 3 children. Lots of books provided as well as some board games and DVDs. It's also in a good location, only a 10 minute walk to Portree.

Wonderful Stay

We had our entire family, including a son-in-law and grandson with us -- all eight! It was a great time for family connection. The entire space was excellent for the family meal together in one room, and the family room was perfect for evening games. Location was perfect with a view of the water, and location to all the best hiking on Skye. Everything worked great, and Alex was very attentive to a couple of needs during the stay!

Comfortable and Close to downtown

This accommodation provided several spacious and comfortable rooms for all seven members of my family. There was laundry services on site, which were easy to use and instructions were left everywhere for ease-of-use. The view was beautiful and one of the major draws for booking this home. Highly recommend this home if staying in Portree.

Quaint, yet modern amenities

There was plenty of room in this great house. Being from the USA, we had to get acquainted with a few things like the showers which had to be activated via a switch in the hall. View was lovely; not really walkable to town but very close by taxi.

Wonderful place on Isle of Skye

Our group of 7 friends had an amazing stay at Alex's house in Portree on Isle of Skye. The house is beautiful, fully equipped, and has the most amazing views of the water and surrounding mountains. We had plenty of space to gather in the common room and adjoining dining room and everyone slept comfortably in the spacious bedrooms. Alex was extremely helpful with a very minor issue when we arrived (tripped breaker) that we resolved quickly. The location in general is fantastic for getting to all the major things to do on Skye. I cannot recommend this house enough!

Thank u to Alex and team

We had amazing time staying at this place , it was just perfect for family including babies , they enjoyed a lot. House is just fabulous . Babies had a blast and enjoyed a lot , especially the morning sunrise and dancing on guitar that was kept in the house . We had huge snowstorm on last day and it made us worried about changing our plan and possibly delaying return flight but our host Alex helped immediately and she made extra calls late evening and provided us extra hands to clear out the driveway so we could leave on time . Thanks to all of u and we will be definitely revisiting in future !

Stunning views, spacious interior

Our family of 5 (2 adults, 3 kids) had a fantastic stay at this property. The views are gorgeous and the interior very spacious. Aromatic rose bushes all along the front of the house too! It was a very easy 15min walk into town. Washer/dryer worked well. Showers always had hot water. Bedrooms had blackout curtains so we always had a good nights sleep. This property was a bit of a splurge for us, but Skye has been on my bucket list for awhile & I was hooked by the views in the pictures -- the real views are even more stunning and it was very nice how the sofa and tables are arranged so we could always see outside. It was tricky pulling out of the property because cars at the nearby gas station frequently blocked the view. It would be super helpful if a mirror were installed across the street. I would happily stay here again and recommend it to others.
