Bit of a disappointment

I was very excited about our stay here, so you can imagine how upset I was to arrive to a dirty rental after hours of driving with three young children. The cleaners came promptly, but then we had to leave the property so it could be cleaned. We then had to drive around and went to 5 restaurants before finding one with room. We were compensated for our dinner, but I don’t feel that was enough based on what I paid for this rental and what we experienced. There was no coffee and some of the bathrooms had a strong sewage smell. Other than that the place is lovely with a great view.

The house was very open and easily accommodated six people. The kitchen was well stocked. We saw deer, watched the lambs play, played games on the large dining room table.

Perfect location

Although the house is close to Broadford for stores and restaurants, the location still feels remote enough to fully disconnect. So quiet and beautiful. We loved being able to take hikes from the house and it is a great location for exploring closeby Elgol and Torrin. We also ventured further afield up to Portree and Old Man of Storr, but it was great to get back to our peaceful house at the end of the day. Clean, Comfortable and spacious. We were sad to leave!!
