Greshornish Boathouse is praised for its peaceful location, stunning loch views, and cosy atmosphere. Guests appreciate the warmth and comfort provided, as well as the opportunity to unwind and enjoy the natural surroundings. While some guests mention issues with maintenance and cleanliness, the unique experience of staying close to the sea and the wildlife sightings are cherished memories.

Cleanliness

Reviews indicate a mix of experiences regarding cleanliness. Some guests found the property to be clean and cosy, while others noted issues with dog hairs, dust, and mould. The presence of snail trails and a general need for a more thorough cleaning were also mentioned.

Location

The boathouse's location is highly praised for its tranquillity, beautiful views over the loch, and proximity to nature. It serves as a serene getaway, although some guests noted the proximity to a fish farm and the condition of the access road as detractors.

Comfort

Guests generally find the boathouse comfortable, with cosy settees and a warm environment. However, some discomfort was expressed regarding the bed accessibility, shower issues, and seating arrangements for more than two people.

Facilities

The boathouse is equipped for a comfortable stay, but several reviews cite issues with maintenance such as a broken shower head, non-working appliances, and the need for some TLC. The lack of mobile signal and internet connectivity is noted, though this may be a positive for guests seeking to disconnect.

About this property

Dunvegan 8 miles.

Spectacularly located on the shore of Loch Greshornish next to a working fishery, this first floor apartment in a refurbished boathouse offers breathtaking views across the loch and the stunning Skye mountains. With its rural waterside setting, this Isle of Skye self-catering apartment is the ideal place from which to explore this mystical island. This self-catering apartment on Skye is situated above the boathouse itself, with direct access to the water. The sitting room boasts a lovely view across the loch from the gable end window - keep your eyes open for passing seals! A double bedroom and bathroom complete this cosy Isle of Skye self-catering accommodation. Edinbane village, 4.5 miles away, offers a village shop, hotel and pottery shop, while Dunvegan, just a few miles further on from your Isle of Skye self-catering apartment, is the main village in the area and boasts hotels, shops and restaurants. After a visit to Dunvegan Castle you must take the boat trip to see the seals basking on a nearby island. Skye offers breathtaking scenery, spectacular walking and an abundance of wildlife. This is truly an ideal Skye self-catering apartment and location for a tranquil holiday. EPC Rating: Band E

Set on the north-west of the famous Isle of Skye, the village of Dunvegan is a quirky mixture of traditional stone dwellings and modern houses. With a wide selection of shops and hotels, Dunvegan is only a mile from the thirteenth century castle home of the Clan Macleod – who are said to have had dealings with the "wee folk" at the Fairy Bridge. Also in the area - with fantastic rock forms and pinnacles - are the Cuillin Mountains, which many climbers consider some of the best in the country. The Aros Centre provides a wide variety of concerts, theatre and cinema throughout the year and is well worth a visit, whilst Portree, the island's only town boasts and excellent range of shops, restaurants and hotels, as well as a picturesque natural harbour.
