Overlooking Loch Alsh and set in a secluded spot, the croft has been beautifully restored keeping much of the original character. With stunning views from the croft across Loch Alsh and towards Loch Duich and the famous Eilean Donan Castle.

A week of peaceful retreat, warm and cosy, quiet. I love the layout of the Croft house, location and views. I don't have any negative feedback, I will return.
The cottage is lovely, isolated and with beautiful views on the Loch from the garden, from the first floor and along the trail leading to the beach (starting on the back of the cottage, next to the fuel tank). Warm, well equipped, very clean. We had great fun cooking with the AGA kitchen. The garden was in full bloom with bluebells, azaleas and rhododendrons. We spotted roe deer in the garden and along the road leading to the cottage (be aware when driving along ). Highly recommended!
Superb location and the cottage (croft) is well equipped. Beautiful views across the loch. Cooking with the Aga was fun and a bit of an art form. The last 50m of track looks challenging but is easily passable. It was an ideal base for exploring Skye. One minor plea, a small welcome pack of tea/coffee and milk would welcome and is common amongst other properties of this standard.
Lovely cottage with a fantastic view! You have to go outside to get the best view though. We saw deer nearly every day. Usually very early in the morning and it's very important to not make any noise. We also saw an otter in the water(binoculairs) AND a small group of porpoises one evening! It's a lovely & quiet place. Kyle of Lochalsh was a bit of a disappointment. But for a nice bite to eat you can go to The Clachan in Dornie. You have to make a reservation though. Eilean Donan Castle is a must as it's very nearby and it's worth the visit. There are a few lovely walks in the neighbourhood.It was lovely to be able to cook on a Rayburn. Our advice is to extend the worktop on the left side of the sink, it would make it more workable to do the washing-up. There is no dishwasher, which was a bit of a bummer(but we knew that beforehand).But there were not enough glasses so we kept having to wash the same glasses all the time. And that's not particularly a nice thing to do while on holiday. We had asked the caretaker on our second day there if we could get more water-& whisky glasses. We did get the whisky glasses, but never got the water glasses. The bed was fine but the double duvet was not wide enough for 2 people. Other than that we really enjoyed our stay. And we can recommend this cottage to anyone who seeks rest, wildlife and a fantastic view. Adrian & Harriet (from Holland)

Thank you very much for your feedback, it has been very helpful. There are now additional glasses and a new duvet in the cottage. Thank you
Absolutely outstanding holiday. The house is perfect and cosy with such amazing views and so handy for days out to Distilleries, castles, beautiful beaches etc. Wi-Fi excellent and the music system is great . I can honestly say it's the most relaxing environment to clear the head and just chill out . Definitely be back
We have been before in the Matheson and like the first time our stay was very nice. If you like remote, cosyness, yet all you need in reach, choose the matheson.
