Come and relax in a traditional detached crofter's cottage in the picturesque village of Torrin on the Isle of Skye. A fabulous base from which you can easily enjoy all the wonders of Skye.
Torrin is a beautiful village on the shores of Loch Slapin, close to a gorgeous secluded beach and nestled between the Red Cuillin hills and the mighty Bla Bhienn (pronounced Blaven, it means blue mountain). Bla Bhienn is our favourite mountain and arguably the finest Munro in Scotland! Perfect for exploring, relaxing, walking, climbing, cycling, photographers and geologists!
The cottages been in our family for over 150 years. In 2017 we've completed a full upgrade of the whole cottage. It's wonderfully homely and comfortable and very very peaceful.

As a traditional cottage, the stairs are rather steep and narrow so care should be taken at all times.

Our cottage is situated up a track off the main road. There's free parking with room for two cars in the drive on our property.
The cottage is in the village of Torrin, 7 miles from Broadford which is a lovely town with a beautiful bay and views to the mainland.

About the host
Hosted by Cary Harris
Hi I'm Pete and I live in Edinburgh with my wife Cary. We love the outdoor life - walking, cycling, exploring new places. Skye is the perfect place to do all of these! I've been coming to Torrin since I was a wee boy as this was my aunt's house. As adults we've come to Torrin on holiday every year for the past 35 years and we feel it is our spiritual home. We hope you enjoy the cottage as much as we do. Enjoy!
