I donât think the owners could improve it as they have thought of everything. Itâs a good base to use to see the local area. The owners are very responsive with any questions. The only reason perhaps we would not stay there again is for us, very limited evening eating options in the evenings apart from one hotel and a couple of takeaways but that is nothing to do with the property at all.

Great location and well equipped. The beds were quite uncomfortable though.

The owners have thought of everything needed for a great stay in their property.The house is a short walk into Kyle,which has a range of small shops including a small supermarket,pharmacy and butcher.It also has a Chinese takeaway which we used as the local hotels were only able to serve residents meals,due to staff shortages(a familiar story all over and not one that is easy to resolve)The weather was superb and we were able to explore the beautiful local area including Skye which is very easy to access via the nearby road bridge.
