About this property

Park Cottage - A very private and scenic holiday home.

Park Cottage is a traditional Skye crofthouse built in the 1890s and was completely renovated throughout in 2017. Graded 4 star by VisitScotland, STL licence HI-30039-F and a 'C' Energy Performance Rating (EPC), it sits at the end of the Park Bernisdale crofting township, 9 miles from Portree in a very private, peaceful and beautiful location with absolutely no passing traffic whatsoever. The open plan sitting/dining room is furnished in a very homely style including a log burner with some logs provided. The downstairs bedroom has a king size bed with an en-suite, including a big shower. There is a second shower room downstairs and 2 bedrooms upstairs (a single and a double) that have coombed ceilings to the sides and are well appointed but much smaller. The well equipped kitchen includes a dishwasher and a washing machine with tabs for both included. Along with many other items including washing up liquid, dish towels, etc, etc. Park Cottage is in a great location for visiting north and central Skye with a minimum stay of 3 nights and arrival can be on any day of the week. It can accommodate a maximum of 4 people comfortably (including children of 8 and over).
Park Cottage has an EV charger exclusively for guest use. Charged separately at 35p/unit (Kwh). More detail sent nearer time of stay or on request anytime.
Sorry but I do not allow pets.

Perfect cottage on Skye

What a wonderful cottage! It was perfect for our trip to Skye. The cottage was warm, cozy, well stocked and in a secluded but central location. The host was fantastic and made us feel extremely welcome and at home. Book this home, you will be very happy.

This cottage is beautiful, and is in such a peaceful setting…just what we needed after a month in the cities. It was actually bigger than the photos made it out to be. The views were amazing, beds comfortable, and the kitchen was great. It was easy access to Portree, and centrally located to go do all the things on Skye, especially on the Trotternish Peninsula. We wish we could have stayed here longer. The extremely short walk to the hill above provide breathtaking views (wear hiking boots though).The host was easy to communicate with and responsive. 5 stars all the way around.

Stunning views

This cottage was everthing I'd hoped it to be. It was comfortable, quiet and the views were amazing. Margaret was an exceptional host and maintained contact throughout. This cottage had everything you could need. I would highly recommend this cottage, if you like to be in the country side away from the busy cities.

Serenity

A perfect place to switch off from the to-ing and fro-ing of modern life. We sat outside on the bench one clear night enjoying the stillness and silence and the wonderful view of the night sky. The house itself is lovely - really cosy, smartly appointed and plenty of room too. Highly recommended.

Quiet Skye.

Wonderful stay with great living areas, and kitchen. The views were outstanding and peacefulness of the area replenished our souls. Though another couple was supposed to be with us, it ended up just being my wife and I. Waking up to the sheep and their new lambs was a added bonus. Though the weather was not ideal, gale force winds, driving rain, sleet and hail, it didn't stop us from exploring from this ideal location. We will return someday. It was a wonderful stay.

Gorgeous, Quiet house

Great place. Quiet with wonderful views but about 20-30 minutes from Portree for groceries and dinner. Place is well set up with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Parking was included. We enjoyed watching the sheep and water each day. We had car trouble and the owners were willing to work with us, give us advice and a little slack while we got the car checked out the next day. Overall, all four of us would gladly go back.

Just perfect

A friend and I wanted to "get away from it all" stayed at this property, and it COMPLETELY delivered. Our neighbours were birds and adorable ewes and lambs, but there are a few other homes in easy walking distance. Amazing view over the Snizort. House was perfection - large shower, comfortable beds, easy to use appliances that worked perfectly. Great, easy to use fire with wood and kindling supplied. Easy drive to attractions such as Dunvegan Castle and Fairy Glen. Lovely outside bit with a picnic table was perfect for leisurely coffee mornings. I can't recommend Park Cottage enough, I am trying to figure out when next to come back! Thanks so much for a great stay!

Great location

This property was located perfectly for everything we wanted to do. It was central so we could get easy access to portrait, but it still allowed us to go all directions in the aisle of sky. It was very quiet and very much country setting but still within 10 minutes of town.
