The location was perfect—close to all the places we wanted to visit, which made getting around incredibly convenient. Highly recommend!

This is an absolutely beautiful cottage, we could not fault it. The location is great for travel to Skye, Plockton and other beauty spots. Eilean Donan castle is a stones throw away, with beautiful night views from the cottage, of it all illuminated.Great communication from the owners when I acted like an air head and couldn’t find the wi-fi password, (it was on the router)!I am so glad that we managed to find this accommodation, my elderly father is very unwell and it gave us some great memories to hold close. We will most definitely come back, if we are lucky enough to get booked in.

The perfect cottage, the perfect base for exploring the western isles!

A great little cottage, beautifully presented , wedged between two delightful pubs and within walking distance of Eilean Donan Castle. A great base from which to explore the Isle of Skye. Warm, comfortable and everything you need to relax after a day of exploring. Dornie is a magical little village and certainly one to come back to. Thanks to our hosts for making everything so easy.

Very comfortable stay

My family of 5 adults stayed for 3 nights. The home is very clean and has everything you need for an enjoyable stay. All the beds are comfortable, even the pull-out sofa bed. The kitchen is well stocked with plenty of room for a sit-down dinner. The pub next door has good food and drink with live music on some evenings. The castle is a short walk away with guided tours, gift shop and cafe. The whole area is beautiful, and this home is a great place for a home base.

Nice little house in sweet little town

Everything went smoothly. Nice house and surroundings. Ideal for explorations in all directions.We highly recommend Calum's Seal Trips, a tour to the Isle of Sky or the Croft Cafe where you can also do a Coo Tour. It was lovely staying in quiet little Dornie. The Pub next door has very good food and live music on Tue/Thu.The house is well equipped and it was really helpful to be able to do the laundry being on a roadtrip. Beds were very comfy.the best: take pictures of Eilean Donan Castle at various times of day and night.

Great family rental in convenient picturesque location.

We really enjoyed staying at this house as a base for our time on Skye. The house was really comfortable for the 4 of us, and we felt right at home. All of the appliances and amenities were exactly as described. The hosts communicated well before and during the trip and we were able to get into the rental with ease. Having the Clachan pub next door and the Dornie Hotel just over the road was perfect for us to get a meal or a drink as we came back from a day out. Waking up and going for a stroll while seeing the castle nearby was a hi-light. This is the perfect base for visiting the area, as the nearby entertainment options did not dissapoint.

Wir haben uns wie zu Hause gefühlt. Das Badezimmer war das schönste und ein kleines Kunstwerk. Ich würde gerne direkt nochmal buchen. Ein ganzes Haus steht hier zur Verfügung.

Perfekte Lage vor der Isle of Skye

Sehr schönes Ferienhaus in idealer Lage in Dornie mit herrlichem Blick auf das Eilean Donan Castle. Man kann von hier aus in bequemen Tagestouren die gesamte Isle of Skye erkunden. Das Haus hat alle Annehmlichkeiten die man braucht ein sehr modernes Bad und viel Platz für 4 Personen. Nebenan ist der Pub von Dornie, ideal um abends dort noch einzukehren, es gibt jeden Dienstag Livemusik, aber im Haus hört man vom Betrieb im Pub gar nichts. Kurzum das Haus kann man uneingeschränkt empfehlen.

Convenient location and bigger than looks.

The house is much bigger than it appears on line and it is well equipped. It was very clean and the beds and sofa extremely comfortable. Although we knew that the house was next to a pub, the pub has changed hands and now has covered outdoor seated area at each side of their main entrance. The pub is doing very well and was constantly busy. We ate at the pub one night and the food was excellent. We also had pizzas from Pizza Jo (across the bridge) which was a nice experience. The location is fabulous for access to Skye, Plockton and wonderful local walks etc but sadly there is a single storey bed and breakfast directly opposite the house obstructing the views. To enjoy the views you need to be outside the property. There is a table and chairs we used at the side of the house. We were able to park outside the house every day and stored our kayaks in the rear passageway. Thank you for accommodating us and for the kind bottle of fizz which was much appreciated.

Wedding stay

Ideally located cottage for our family wedding. Spacious and clean including a well-stocked kitchen with all the glasses, dishes and cooking equipment we needed. Easy access to the Loch for watersports and parking at the door. Excellent food at both the Clachan Pub and Waterside restaurant at the Dornie Hotel, both next door to the cottage.

Great location

My daughter and I loved this property. We stayed 3 nights. The location was great - close to Isle of Skye, near the Eileen Donan castle, right next door to the pub selling great food ( but quiet) and lovely walking. The property was clean, and had everything we needed. I would definitely stay here again.
