We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Raven cottage. The sheep and bird sounds were lovely, as well as the babbling water from the creek. Being able to build a fire in the living room was a lovely way to heat the house as well. Thank you for all the helpful information about the area and the Isle of Skye.
The Raven Cottage was an idyllic place to stay while you explore Skye. Perfectly set up to be a comfortable base to start and end your day. Great kitchen set up and the hosts were marvelous with communication when we had questions. Hope to be able to stay there again someday.
Loved our stay at Ravens Cottage.Perfect spot for a quiet vacation. So quiet!Take all your supplies with you. There are shops, but they are a car deive away.So many beautiful walks around and the scenery is amazing.
Raven Cottage was every bit as charming and magical as it looks in the photos. Worth the drive into the Highlands! (Not for the faint of heart.) Pristine, cozy, incredibly well planned and laid out. Drinking tea looking at that garden every morning was a highlight of our trip, and the kids loved exploring the property. We had everything we needed to truly relax.
Wonderful stay. The cottage is cozy and the entire family of 3 generations enjoyed our stay. The surroundings are great and we loved the fact that you are very secluded and off the beaten path.
The location is really wonderful and quite unique. I don't have to describe it since you see it well on the photos. The house itself is very nice and has everything one needs.
Raven Cottage was a quiet and peaceful home base for our stay on Skye. I would recommend this location for anyone wanting to step away from the areas full of tourists at the end of the day. There are beautiful nearby hikes, waterfalls, and beautiful stargazing at night if you're lucky enough to have clear skies.
Beautiful countryside property! Away from the noise and only a short drive away to everything Skye has to offer. The accomodations were clean, well-sorted, perfect.
A beautiful, cozy cottage in a very quiet area of Skye but with easy access to the sights. The cottage is very comfortable and well equipped. We would loved to have stayed longer to enjoy all the area has to offer. Highly recommended!
We did a lot of driving around during the day. Coming back to the cottage was one of the highlights of the day. We both appreciated how nice and clean and quiet the space was. There were beautiful views both coming and going. I am sure we will never forget our stay at Raven cottage.
What a great place to stay for your visit to the magical land of Skye. We loved the location, just far enough off the beaten path but not too far once you learn the island. Absolutely recommend Raven Cottage and visiting the Isle of Skye!
Absolutely loved the setting and the cottage. Short drive to many wonderful sites and villages, but remote enough to give me the peace and quiet I was looking for.
If you want you a beautiful remote location for a relaxed family holiday, Ravens Cottage is the ideal location. The property is lovely and gave us a great base for many walks around the rugged yet beautiful landscape of Skye. We would highly recommend Ravens Cottage if you want to explore the Isle of Skye.
We loved our stay at Ravens Cottage! The drive is beautiful, the Fairy Pool and Talisker Beach were close by and wonderful. The cottage was clean, comfortable and had a lot of space for our family. My son loves cows and could sometimes see them outside of the living room grazing up the hill.
We loved our stay in Raven Cottage and being close to great hikes and nature. The cottage had everything we needed and the layout was comfortable. Great place if you want to get away from it all!
We had an amazing stay at Raven Cottage! There were four of us staying there for a nice, relaxing trip to the Isle of Skye, and we loved everything about it. We were looking for a remote location with things to do locally, and we also wanted somewhere that was close to some of the main sights on Skye. We loved the location, including the nearby loch, abbey ruins, and forest. We also weren't too far from most of the big-ticket items around the isle, so it was perfect for what we were hoping for. The cottage was well-maintained and had everything we needed. We absolutely loved the fireplace and how cozy everything was on rainy days. The host also had some excellent suggestions for places to eat and places to visit. Overall, a truly perfect visit, and we hope to stay at Raven Cottage again someday!
Brilliant house for extended family holiday for 6... beautiful location next to creek & secluded bordering a forest. Great local walks & close to Carbost for groceries & coffee. House was well insulated & had great amenities. Happy to recommend
Easily found, large, warm, clean, well-appointed property. Beautiful location by a burn just up from the loch on the edge of a forest. Wildlife on the doorstep
Very quiet location but quite a distance from amenities. You definitely cannot walk to town for a few items. The yard was beautiful but we were not there long enough to really enjoy it.

Why they chose this property
Although only 10 minutes from Carbost, Raven Cottage and Eynort is a world away from rush of modern life. This is a real escape into the peace and quiet that most people can only dream of elsewhere in the UK.
What makes this property unique
Walking, biking, kayaking, eagle and general wildlife spotting, history going back over 1000 years, even some summer river swimming, all direct from the cottage. Peaceful even compared to the rest of Skye, but with excellent for those occasional rainy days.
