Everything about staying here was so easy. The drive out is beautiful. You feel like you are on the edge of the world. The kitchen is one of the most fully stocked kitchen's I've ever had the pleasure of using in a rental property. The wood burning fire stove is very straightforward to use. This is the perfect cozy cottage!

Absolutely stunning views and lovely cottage

We were charmed by the beauty of The Old Croft House and it's views. It was very neatly appointed and had a small working fireplace that we used with delight. We are already plotting to return and will treasure our memories there for life.

Beautiful property in stunning location

The Old Croft House was just perfect, immaculately clean, comfortable and in a stunning location. The views from the property were amazing. It was everything we wanted from our visit to Skye. It really is a home from home property and we would definately stay there again. The enclosed garden was perfect for our dog, he loved it as much as us.

Lovely setting

Very pleasant cottage in lovely setting. Well equipped and very dog friendly. Just a shame the final part of the road is so poor, pot holes and badly marked passing places for 3.5 miles not good in a low slung car!

Our stay on Slest

The Croft was cosy and in a delightful location on the coast. Lovey well equipped kitchen, The woodburner was great on colder evenings. The isolation was wonderful . Truly a place to relax, unwind and enjoy the peace and quiet . Loved it ❤️

Nice Scottish bungalow

Very old house that has been fabulously updated. Kitchen is gorgeous with all amenities, aga wood burning stove was warm and toasty and added just the right touch to the ambiance . Beds were comfortable. House was warm and the view was to die for. A bit scary driving in, and quite far from amenities but thats what you get and thats what we paid for. Thanks Alison for all your help with medical issues. Made a big difference! Love stay! Allison, i wanted to let you know I found the Beiderlack blankets available stateside. Bought one and love it. Still searching for the cow with painted hair you had at your house. If you can let me know where to get one of him, id love it. So cute . Thanks agian for a lovely stay!!!

Nach einem abenteuerlichen Weg der Küste entlang mit schon atemberaubenden Ausblicken erreicht man dieses liebevoll eingerichtete Cottage mit einem großen Grundstück inmitten von Weiden und einem fantastischen Blick auf die Küste. Jeden Morgen und jeden Abend egal ob bei Sturm, Sonne, warmen Regen sass ich mit meinem Kaffee oder Wein und genoss diesen einzigartigen Ort, umgeben von Schafen und Rindern dazu. Auch wenn man denkt, man ist hier am Ende der Welt so kann man viel unternehmen von hier aus - 300 m den Hügel hinauf vom Haus geht direkt ein Wanderweg zum Point of Sleat - malerisch. Die Küche war großzügig und bestens ausgestattet, genau wie das Wohnzimmer mit dem wärmenden Kamin. Die Betten sind gut und alles war super sauber. Das Bad ist zwar etwas kleiner und für große Menschen wird es durch die Dachschräge etwas schwieriger in der Dusche, aber mann kann ja auch baden ;-) wenn man sich damit also arrangieren kann, ist dies wie einzuleiten Zuhause. Besonders hervorheben möchte ich die wunderbare Kommunikation mit Alison - hab vielen Dank, wir kommen wieder.

The Old Croft House was a delight. Beautifully clean in stunning surroundings, this lovely house has everything you need for a wonderful holiday. We saw seals, deer, eagles, otters and made friends with the cows in the neighbouring field. The road in from Armadale is twisty and care is needed.The Armadale Store is well stocked and Armadale Castle, Cafe and Gardens are a lovely place to spend an afternoon. The Aird of Sleat is remote but not isolated - there are plenty of neighbouring cottages- but do allow for extra travel time to drive to other places on the island- narrow roads with passing places, as well as sheep and cows on the road, do slow you down. The beach at the Point of Sleat is stunning, and well worth the walk there. Travelling back to the mainland on the ferry to Mallaig is straightforward and be sure not to miss the Hogwarts Express travelling over the Glenfinnan Viaduct. Our week in the Old Croft House was unforgettable. Thank you to the hosts for sharing their wonderful cottage.

Traumhafte Lage im wundervollen Cottage

Gepflegter Garten, herrliche Aussicht auf das Meer, gemütliches, kleines Cottage, 2 Minuten zum einsamen steinigen Strand, super ruhige Lage am Ende einer Sackgasse. Was braucht man mehr für einen erholsamen Urlaub. Netter Kontakt zur Vermieterin Alison, die sich gleich um alles gekümmert hat. Wir kommen gern wieder!

Perfect cottage with amazing sea views

We had a peaceful and relaxing stay.The cottage was warm and cosy and had everything we needed and more. Great host who kept us up to date every step of the holiday, including covid 19 information, which the cottage was more than ready for and we had no concerns. The welcome pack was much appreciated after our long drive. My partner was so excited to have a buzzard visit the garden, who even sat and posed for some amazing photos. The garden was all enclosed and dog friendly. Some great walks nearby and the private little beach was special. Would definitely recommend and if ever in Skye again I wouldnt hesitate to book The Old Croft House Again.

Peace and tranquillity in abundance

Simply stunning location and a lovely little house that had everything we needed. Much time was spend in the garden just looking at the views. Brilliant secure garden for the dogs and the cove was an added bonus for all of us. Would highly recommend to anyone that wants to get away from it all.

Großartiges Ferienhaus im ruhigeren Teil der Isle of Skye

Wir haben eine wunderschöne Woche in diesem gemütlichen Ferienhaus verbracht. Das Haus bietet sämtlichen Komfort und wunderschöne Ausblicke auf den Atlantik. Es ist nicht ganz so einsam gelegen wie die Fotos vermuten lassen, es sind ein paar Häuschen in der Umgebung. Sehr nette Nachbarn. Wir haben es immer sehr genossen vom Trubel der restlichen Insel wieder zurück in dieses entspannte Paradies zurückzukehren. Toll auch für die Kinder mit dem großen Garten und den angrenzenden Feldern mit Zugang zum Meer, wo wir Delfine, Roben und Otter gesehen haben. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Thank you for your review. We are so pleased you had a lovely holiday on Skye. We are currently updating our photos and website, so hopefully guests will get a better idea of the location and surrounding area when we do that. We love the quiet location, but as you say, there are enough houses around to feel secluded but not isolated. We hope you will recommend the cottage to others who may be visiting Scotland in the future.

A trip to stay in a little piece of paradise

The Croft was wonderful, the scenery magnificent, the weather unbelievably warm and sunny. We wanted to get away from it all and recharge our batteries and we left after a week having had the most amazing time in our first trip to Skye. The peace, tranquility and scenery were just what we needed.Everything about the stay was perfect from booking, paying, directions, instructions for the croft. Everything we needed was there for us. Vixen our Patterdale Terrier had a wonderful time in the garden which is almost terrier proof. I can't recommend this property highly enough.

Lovely cosy cottage in a peaceful setting

We loved our stay at the Old Croft House! Cottage was perfect and homely, very well equipped. The setting is wonderful -breathtaking sea views towards Eigg. Large garden perfect for our dogs, and short walk to a small beach where we enjoyed fishing, watching for wildlife and admiring the view towards the mainland. Can't wait to return!

A beautiful cottage, comfortable and very well equipped, in the most stunning location near the bay. We had a fantastic week, walking and sightseeing and eating meals in the garden overlooking the water. Can't wait to go back.
