Isle of Skye Cottage In the Scottish Highlands

Loch Vatten cottage is quiet, even for Skye, with fantastic views over the Loch and mountains. Few cottages are this near to the water. There are fabulous walks from your doorstep to prehistoric remains (Vatten cairns and nearby Dunbeag Broch are two of Skye's most important sites) and spectacular viewpoints and a secret white sand beach.

You can watch seals basking on the rocks from the kitchen window and even enjoy occasional visits from otters. There are deer, hawks , peregrines and eagles to be seen from the cottage.

The cottage is filled with chic furnishings like Cath Kidston crockery, OKA furniture, Crucial Trading rugs, Moroccan cushions/throws, patchwork quilts and original artwork from all over the UK.

Wi fi, TV.

Outside is a third of an acre of enclosed garden overlooking the Loch.

Beaches are a couple of minutes walk away.

There are Adirondack chairs and a picnic table to enjoy al fresco meals.

All linen, towels, soaps and a welcome pack of groceries are provided.

Heating and solid fuel included.

The cottage is in an exceptionally quiet position, down a private track off the very quiet loop road, yet only 4 miles from the shops, pubs and cafes of Dunvegan and 25 minutes from Portree.
