Cosy cottage

Perfect location for exploring the Isle of Skye. We enjoyed walking and fishing off the peninsula at Braes Beach. Great views of the bay and mountains as you drive up to the cottage. The cottage was clean and cosy. The kitchen was well equipped and we enjoyed using the open fire in the evenings. Only a 15 minute drive to Portree where there are plenty shops and places to eat, I would recommend booking popular restaurants. The email I received on arrival was full of useful information. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Amazing hide away in a beautiful location

Half of Six cottage was the perfect quiet get away. It has stunning views towards the Isle of Raasay and has bucket loads of character. It is about a 15min drive to Portree so easy to get provisions etc. The cosy nature of the cottage is enhanced by the two fires. The owner was very helpful with any questions we had.
