About this property

Comfortable Cottage With Spectacular Sea And Mountain Views

Knoydart Cottage, on the beautiful and mystical Isle of Skye, is at the heart of some of Europe’s most spectacular scenery. The cottage was designed to take full advantage of the breath taking views across the Sound of Sleat to the mountains of Glenelg and the Knoydart Peninsula.

Its position makes the cottage the perfect base for a holiday on Skye, whether you are looking for an action-filled week or a relaxing break, with stunning views + beaches only a 5 min walk away. We look forward to welcoming you. Please note our change over day is Saturday .

The two-bedroom cottage has recently been completely renovated and refurbished to provide an extremely comfortable and superbly equipped holiday home, that sleeps 4.

At the end of a day exploring, if you simply want to enjoy the local fare (and not have to cook!) then Knoydart Cottage is ideally placed to sample the varied choice of gourmet restaurants, from simple snacks to fine dining.

Whatever the generation, whatever the season, the Isle of Skye has something to offer everyone

Cottage by the sea

We really loved this little cottage by the sea. The view from the front room and patio was spectacular. The beach was a short walk loved collecting shells and rocks. This is a nice quiet side of the island. It was a very good home base and so comfortable. Really really loved it.

Beautiful, spacious, and comfortable cottage. Everything was spotless. The view is magnificent. It was a joy to make dinner and breakfast and enjoy it with that view. The host was very friendly and always responded to messages promptly. Would definitely return to this place when visiting Skye again. We could easily do day trips from there and do all we wanted to do in the island in 3 days. Would love to come back and stay longer to do more hikes around, and enjoy the magnificent sunrises and sunsets from this cabin. Thank you for having us.

A very well appointed and well equiped, modern, comfortable property with outstanding views

We have stayed in many Homeaway properties mainly in France, Spain and Italy, but I have to say this was probably the best property we have stayed in. Its modern, well equipped, very comfortable and has outstanding views over the Kyle Rhea. Christine, lives just across the road and was easily available to solve any problems of which there were none. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. A walk to the pub at Isleornsay Harbour is highly recommended. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here

Lovely cottage and beautiful location

We had an amazing stay in this lovely cottage. The location is perfect for the quieter side of Skye. My son absolutely loved the garden, which is massive! If I had to moan about one thing it was the fact that there wasn’t a hand whisk however there was a blender, scales, flasks and whatever else you could possibly need! We had a great time! Thank you

What a view!

We had a lovely stay at Knoydart Cottage, the cottage itself is very homely and the view is spectacular. The kids had a ball exploring the garden, although we encountered a few ticks, so do keep an eye out. The convenience of the Duisdale Hotel literally being next door was great for the nights we couldn't be bothered cooking dinner. A beautiful part of Skye, Armadale Castle down the road is also a must see, fabulous play area for the kids. Highly recommend 👌
