Katie's Cottage
Katie's Cottage is has benefited from a high-end and thoughtful architectural restoration. The flooring, stairs and eco heating are particularly thoughtful. well located for a remote holiday, what a fabulous area of Skye, new to us, but fabuous for wildflife

Don Cottage
Beech Lodge
Beach Lodge
This is our second visit to Beach Lodge, a little piece of paradise. The house is spacious but cozy. Three living areas and just enough tech to keep in touch with the rest of the world if you have to; Freesat TV, and basic broadband with wi-fi over much of the house. Six plus a dog had really relaxing stay, amazing walks down the beach towards Killantringan or the opposite direction up to where it's gets pretty rocky and the sand runs out. Back to the house for meals, sitting out the back cooking up a barbeque or in the sun room watching the kestrels above the hillside and the cows come down to the front meadow for a bit of evening grazing. Being tucked down a rough track keeps most day trippers at bay. Been up and down here in a fully loaded car with no issue so don't let the road put you off. Portpatrick is just 15 minutes away with some good pubs and restaurants. Stranraer about 25 minutes away with a good choice of shops and supermarkets. We just stocked up for the week and enjoyed the seclusion. Barely saw another person all week. The directions are a bit misleading, the postcode is DG9 0RR; a what3words location is ///stands.enclosing.wonderfully.
Beech Lodge
Seascape Cottage
This is simply one of the best cottages imaginable...beautifully clean and well equipped, with the most stunning views across the Irish Sea, and literally a couple of minutes' walk to quiet beaches and rock pools. The host is friendly and helpful and helped make our stay really special. Totally intend to pay further visits to this beautiful and relaxing cottage.
The Challey at Heathcote
Seabank Cottage
Smashing wee cottage, ideally located for visiting west coast & Skye. A couple of tweaks would further improve, namely, update TV / Program provider & blackout curtains in bedroom. Other than that an enjoyable stay.
Fhaireag
Seal Skerry Lodge
Cottage was all that we hoped for. Very clean and well equipped. Telescope was a well used bonus. Perfect balance of getting away with a good selection of local amenities close at hand (cafe, village shop and the Chidakasha veg restaurant all within a few miles). The views over Loch Pooltiel from the house make the visit - on our stay we daily watched seals bathe on the skerry, one day a pod of dolphins visited the loch and otters were also spotted. The walk around the headland to the lighthouse is a good hike and there are variety of other walks in the area. Bird life also exceptional. Hoping to return soon.
Kincardine Cottage
We had a wonderful stay at Kincardine Cottage, it really does feel in the middle of nowhere with lots of wildlife to see, the deer even came into the garden so we didn't have to look very hard! There are a number of towns including Aviemore not too far away so you have all of the things you need and a lovely loch 1 mile away for gentle swimming.
Taffs Barn
Highly recommend Taff's Barn. Excellent location, beautiful views from the patio and balcony - really enjoyed seeing the Red Kites everyday, and very well equipped. Pat was very helpful and the scones, jam, and clotted cream on arrival were lovely. Two of our party have already booked to stay again!
The Orchids
The Orchids is an exceptional property in every way. It's in a stunning location with a constantly changing view across Loch Dunvegan, and is very peaceful. Along with the local rabbits, we had visits from some of the more adventurous sheep and lambs, recognising individuals by the end of the week. Seals swam in the loch in front of us most days and we were thrilled to see dolphins feeding on the incoming tide on a number of occasions - one evening we watched them for a constant three hours or so! We were stunned at how well equipped the kitchen was; there wasn't a single thing that had been overlooked. The living room was comfortable but, to be honest, it stayed largely unused throughout our stay, as the view from the dining room was far more captivating than the TV! We made use of some of the large selection of games and, had the weather not been so unexpectedly good, would probably have done some of the jigsaws too (this was a lovely touch). We were also pleased at the eco-friendliness of the property, due to the solar panels and the ground source pump heating system. The main upstairs bedroom was the only one we used and the bed was extremely comfortable. The ensuite shower was (to quote my husband) the best shower in the world. I honestly can't recommend the Orchids highly enough. It's perfect in every way and I'd love to visit again one day.
Gate House
Timber House
Toberaie
Absolutely fabulous cottage with the most tremendous views. Excellent customer service. Will most definitely be back again and again.
The Granary
House was perfect for our family of four. Garden with bbq and fire pit (and red squirrels) was amazing. Family/owners beside us couldn't have been more friendly and helpful.
Tor Fionn
Matheson's Croft House
An absolutely wonderful cottage, cute, romantic, and well-decorated with a good shower and comfy beds. The garden is full of wildlife, and has the most astounding view over Loch Alsh- you can see Eileen Donan Castle lit up at night, and watch terns fishing in the day. The scenery and local walks are glorious. Ten out of ten all round.
Ceol na Mara
The cottage at Loch Kishorn was great - very well-equipped, clean and comfortable. The views over the loch from the living room and patio garden were truly outstanding.
Pier Head
Beautiful location with a very well equipped, comfortable and well kept house. This was a second visit and we will book again if we go back to the sheildaig area.
Easter Knocklea Cottage
Easter Knocklea was not only a wonderful property to hunker down in but also a great springboard in which to explore the Cairngorm and Moray. The property is elevated with views out and no other house can be seen within the vista in front of you. A really comfortable, well-considered house with many rooms for guests to spread out and find areas either to be quiet in or come together. Spotless, considered and hidden away from the hubbub; book it if you can.
Cuaig Croft
Ceol na Mara
We loved Ceol na Mara warm and cosy very clean and all we needed for our stay.. The view from the window was amazing especially one evening when five beautiful stags walked along he beach in front of the cottage perfect for photography, we would be very happy to return, thankyou. Our two small dogs loved it too
Fon Tobar
Swallow Byre
Jane was the perfect host, very pleasant and informative. Swallow Byre was a lovely cottage with all you need and ideal location for the area. The treats were a lovely touch! Thank you Jane
Callakille
Burnside cottage is a real gem of a cottage! It has wonderful views from both the kitchen diner and the living room across to the isles of Rassay, Rona and Skye. Well equipped, clean and comfortable with a wood burning stove, all ready prepared with logs, if it became chilly. The bathroom must have one of best views in the UK! This an ideal place for getting away from it all: the village shops at Applecross and Shieldaig stock local smoked salmon and the inn at Applecross and the Walled Garden are great places to eat. We would thoroughly recommend it!
The Challey at Heathcote
Leachachan Barn
A wonderful house - just as light and airy as it appears in the photos. A very quiet part of the Highlands, but with easy access to Skye, Plockton and Glenelg. Very well equipped and comfortable too. Totally recommended.
Port Elgol Cottage
Both the cottage and the agency exceeded our expectations, and we had a great week. From the wheelbarrow arrival to the comfortable beds, to the extraordinary view over to the Cuillin ridge, the house was great, and we would recommend it to anyone, though probably more to adult groups than to groups with kids who get easily bored.
Don Cottage
Charleston
Wonderful stay beautiful place and wonderful scenery, our 4 th stay in Charleston and hope to stay again ????
The Mill
Me and my boyfriend had such a wonderful stay at The Mill. The place is so beautiful with stunning views, especially with the massive window at the front! Julie and Phil are so lovely and were really helpful. I couldn't recommend this place any more, what a fab relaxing week we had, wish we could have stayed longer!
Ardrannach
We stopped for a week at Ardrannach cottage in Torvaig, Portree. I am not exaggerating when I say it is best holiday we have had in a very long time. The location was spot on. Views from the window spectacular, proximity to Portree, perfect and host, Andrew, friendly and welcoming. Skye is a magical place to be and we will be back!!
Log House
We had a fantastic time at Log House. Perfect base for days out sightseeing and great evenings sitting on the decking enjoying the quiet unspoilt scenery. Will definitely look to book through Wilderness Cottages for our next holiday
Tor Cottage
We have just returned home after a wonderful week at Tor Cottage. The facilities are excellent, and the views unbeatable. Ruth and John are great hosts - there if you need them, but unobtrusive. They have lots of local knowledge which they share willingly - be it places to go, things to do or where to eat Highlights - the magnificent beaches, some lovely meals and the wildlife. Recommended 1 The boat trip to Shiant Isles (St Kilda Cruises Tarbert) 2 Walks along Luskentyre and Sellebost beaches 3 Best meals Anchorage Leverburgh - great seafood; Scarista House - not cheap but top quality food 4 Coffee shops in short supply best coffee Tala Na Mara All in all a memorable trip, hopefully to be repeated.
Easter Knocklea Cottage
Beautiful cottage set in delightful surroundings with amazing views. Very tastefully furnished throughout. Walks from the doorstep. Truely and wonderfully remote. I didn't see another human for the whole time I was there, which was just what I wanted!
Marnie's Croft
Port Elgol Cottage
Stunning location for a holiday, fantastic views and helped by lovely weather. Comfortable cottage with everything you will need. At 6'3" I found the shower a little restricted, but my wife was OK. The location and ability to relax, watching the tide come and go make up for any small shortcomings with the cottage.
Stable Cottage
Great cottage and location. Loved all the wildlife and peacefulness.
The Coltsfoots
We stayed at the Coltsfoots in June 2021. We loved the cottage, the location is great, very private and quiet and just a 10 minutes walk into Fort Augustus. Lovely large bedrooms each with an en suite. Both bedrooms had lots of storage for clothes. The kitchen was well equipped and the sitting room was cosy. Wifi was good. The wildlife was nice to see, birds and red deer.
Charleston
Charleston is an immaculate, spacious and comfortable bungalow. The views are fantastic, overlooking lochs and the surrounding mountains. The wildlife was interesting with red kites flying overhead, a semi-resident hare in the garden and red deer loping across the moorland outside the gate. It was fairly remote and the first part of the access road was rather challenging. But overall a lovely place.
Roseville
We stayed here for a week in June it is a really beautiful home from home where every amenity was provided for. We all enjoyed our stay immensely and hope to return again in the future.
The Coltsfoots
Fourth visit to this property. Fantastic location, superb well maintained log cabin. Easy distance of village. Friendly owners. Would recommend for a relaxing or touring holiday. We will return in the future.
Score Bay Cottage
Balachladdich
A spacious and clean house, plenty of room for family, wonderful weather.
Cameron's Cottage
Cameron's Cottage is in a great location with a range of walks and places to visit nearby. The house itself is spacious and comfortable and accommodated our party of six easily.
