Set in the most idyllic of locations, with panoramic sea views; the Duckling is the ideal bolthole for couples looking to get away from it all, whilst having the perfect base to explore the Isle of Skye. This cabin has been designed to offer guests their sense of privacy whilst being able to enjoy the stunning surroundings, no matter the weather or time of year. The front-facing wall is predominately glass, whilst the decking scales the length of the property, so come rain, hail, or shine, the changing tides can be continuously enjoyed.

As the perfect offering for two people seeking a romantic escape, the interior being made into a modern but homely studio accommodation suited to all four seasons. Inside, the living area is light and bright, the spacious kitchen area comes well equipped, including an induction hob, microwave, double oven, and a generously sized fridge freezer. The double bed at the far end of the room comes with one large chest of drawers and wardrobe at either side providing ample storage. The bed can fold away, so guests have the option to create extra room to enjoy with much ease. The couch can be reclined for the extra level of comfort and even moved around so guests can enjoy the panoramic views, from the warmth and comfort of The Duckling. There is also a separate shower room with walk in shower that is perfect for relaxing after those long walks along the beach or in the surrounding hills, and ample parking in the area beneath the decking.

Located at the far end of the Minginish Peninsula, overlooking the pretty harbour at Portnalong, this whole area is a walker’s, climber’s and water-sports enthusiast’s paradise. The famous Talisker distillery is only few miles away in the local village of Carbost which also boasts a fantastic inn and restaurant, looking over Loch Harport.

Perfect place to chill out for a week and absorb the amazing landscape of Skye.

Perfect place to chill out for a week and absorb the amazing landscape of Skye. Compact but very well appointed. We love the location but others might find it a bit secluded from amenities such as restaurants and shops.
