Dunvegan, a community on the northwest coast of Skye, features a mix of old stone and modern homes, as well as several retail establishments and lodging options. Dunvegan Castle, located within a mile of the village, has been continually occupied by the Clan MacLeod from the 13th century. The renowned Three Chimneys Restaurant is only five minutes away by car, while the very well-received Old School Restaurant is only ten minutes away on foot. The Cullin Mountains are also nearby, and their impressive spires and other rock formations are a major draw for rock climbers. The Talisker Distillery and the town of Portree, which is centred on the island's natural harbour and features a wide variety of lodging options as well as the popular Sea Eagle tours departing from the pier, are just two of the many tourist attractions on the Isle.

The Cabin is lovely and we felt very relaxed there. Very peaceful. Disapppointed that we couldnât get down to the loch but it was only a short drive to park at Harlosh and walk out to the point - beautiful.

Debbie and Barry were the perfect hosts. On arrival there was a home-made loaf of bread, milk and wine. A great way to start our holiday. The Cabin is well equipped, with just about everything you need to hand and very cosy. A beautiful bedroom, great bathroom and a lovely kitchen. It was perfectly situated for exploring Skye and Dunvegan is a lovely village. We would highly recommend a stay here and hope we can return soon.

It had everything you could possibly need for your stay. Views from the cabin were picture postcard. It is also in close proximity to a bakery, and eating places,
