Skye at its best! Making memories that count.

This property is the perfect location and was extremely beautiful. Stoirm surpassed all of our expectations. Imagine sitting on the back deck with a clear view of Portree across the harbor and Old Man Storr in the distance, but no doubt to the rock formation. Dunvegan is about 35 minutes away, and Kilt Rock was about the same. This home is just lovely, modern and beautifully appointed. There is a full size washer/dryer, which was handy as we were already 8 days into our trip to Scotland, the 3rd city we had stayed in so far. I would not hesitate to stay here again. We had 4 of the best nights of our 12 day vaca. Thanks to our hosts who provided the perfect location for us to make memories that will always be etched in our hearts.
