The details

The Croft is set on the coast of the Isle of Skye with sweeping sea views across the Sound of Sleat and out to the Knoydart Peninsula. This pretty house was built around 1900 by local craftsmen in a traditional style with village stone. It has been fully refurbished to create a luxurious one-bedroom holiday home surrounded by Skye’s rugged and dramatic landscapes.

Step inside and you’ll find plenty of space to keep coats and walking boots in the entrance porch. The hallway takes you through to the kitchen and the living room on the ground floor. You’ll have everything you need for a self-catering holiday in the fully-equipped Ashley Ann kitchen, however, a private chef can also be arranged for special occasions. There’s also a dining area and big double doors open out onto the patio. On sunny days, enjoy your morning coffee outside while taking in the spectacular views.

The sitting room is the perfect spot to retreat to for cosy evenings in with a big comfy sofa in front of a wood-burning stove and a TV. The ground floor has beautiful flagged limestone floors and underfloor heating throughout. Upstairs, you’ll find the luxurious double bedroom with an ensuite shower room. There is also a luxurious full size dressing room, with luggage racks, lots of storage, a full length mirror, a dressing table, a comfortable chair and even a record player! There’s an additional bathroom with a beautiful freestanding bath where you can lie back and relax while soaking up the views over the Sound of Sleat.

The Isle of Skye is famed for its natural rugged beauty which you can enjoy and explore by land or from the water. You can spend days walking, cycling or even driving through spectacular landscapes, perhaps stopping off at one of the many great pubs along the way. Book yourself onto a boat trip to see it all from a different perspective, try your hand at sailing or paddle around in a kayak.

For a more relaxing afternoon, tour the Talisker Distillery or hop across to the Isle of Raasay to sample their single malt whisky and gin at the Raasay Distillery. You’re spoilt for choice when it comes to restaurants and pubs with everything from the famous Kinloch Lodge to enjoying fresh oyster and lobster around a barrel at The Oyster Shed.
