Holiday rentals with beach access in Skye

We had a fantastic couple of nights in the Glenview Garden Studio! It was super easy to find, and Kirsty had even left out some granola and chocolate chip cookies for us, which were greatly appreciated after a long drive up! She was super responsive and helpful, and it was an extra treat to be able to shop at Shilasdair Yarns, the little yarn shop that they also run. The room was really comfortable - great to have a toaster, microwave, and fridge for convenience, and it was a fantastic location for exploring Skye (close to some great hikes and not far from Portree) - my only complaint is that we didn't book a longer stay! Would highly recommend this spot.

Plockton is a fantastic little village surrounded by beauty. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Guillaume’s flat. Well appointed kitchen, comfortable beds, and very clean. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay - everything was in perfect condition and exactly as described. The kitchen is well laid out and functional, and we loved all the natural light from the windows and skylights. Dorothy was a lovely host and highly communicative. We thought the location was convenient about 5 minutes away from Broadford and 35 minutes from Portree. Highly recommend!

The owner replied very promptly, the house is very suitable for 4 people to stay, it is not cramped, and the kitchen is also equipped with many utensils.

Sarah’s cozy, clean home was so comfortable and practical! The beds were so comfy! Our hostess was very responsive to any inquiries we gave her. Having the crib/ cot already set up for us was such a hospitable touch. We loved taking our morning coffee in the cozy window seat and soaking in the stunning views!

Sarah's airbnb was so authentic and unique and beautiful decorated. I loved the feel and style of the airbnb. The surrounding gardens were equally as impressive. I had such a relaxing and peaceful stay! I would definitely stay again when travelling through the highlands!

Thank you Sarah for letting us stay at your place. What a lovely homely feel, amazing views of the loch from all windows, little extras in the cupboard to help spice up our meals, and great to have a washing machine after 10 days on the road. Just a few minutes walk from the pub and small shops in Shieldaig. I cannot rate Windwards highly enough, it exceeded our expectations and we would definitely visit again (if we didn’t live in Australia😂).

Its remote, and eating out is not possible after 19:00, bokings esential, drive over the hils is hard

Lovely little house, Ideal local in the village and lots of lovely places locally to visit. The house is well equipped with all the essentials you need,beds lovely and comfortable,large garden area which suited us with the dogs Would go back tomorrow,the view every morning when you get up will not be forgotten

Thanks so much, very accommodating and flexible. Will definitely visit again as it’s a stunning location. Worth every penny

Absolutely lovely little cottage in the most beautiful surroundings- view of a waterfall, loch below and sheep with lambs just outside the gate. Great spot for a sunset and to just relax listening to the birdsong. The cottage was perfectly clean and fully equipped with absolutely everything you could need for self catering. Modern yet traditional - the perfect balance. A lovely additional touch of local gifts much appreciated. Although a little off the beaten track it was the perfect haven after a day exploring all the incredible sights Skye has to offer. We wouldn't change a thing and hope to return!

Sally was an excellent host! The house is really special, in an amazing location on the harbour with amazing views around Skye and over to the Isle of Raasay. We had a great time, the house is very homely, traditional with modern touches! Thank you Sally!

Etta's cottage is absolutely STUNNING. Beautiful! Spotless and spacious, warm and cozy. Extremely peaceful and serene. Honestly, my husband and I joked about making an offer to buy it. 🤣 Etta also left milk, orange juice, croissants, and butter to get us started for breakfast. As far as location, it is conveniently located within reasonable distance to Portree. There, we found groceries and restaurants, as well as a few gift shops. Just be sure to make sure you don't need reservations for dinner! The cottage is also only about 40 minutes from the Fairy Pools and 40 to 50 to Storr, Fairy Glen, Quiraing, and An Corran Beach (dinosaur footprints). We hope to make this our go-to for lodging in Skye in the future. Thank you, Etta!

The house was perfect and I mean perfect!! Always loved Glen Brittle but staying in Diane’s house just made the Glen even more dear to us than it already was. Diane always responds quickly and makes you feel well cared for. If you can, you must stay here!!

Absolutely lovely home. A great place to stay as a base for day tripping to Syke or other Isles from the auto ferry which is just a few miles away in Mallaig. Be sure to catch a sunset on the beach about a 10-15 min walk away from the home. Be sure to scratch Stan behind his ears! Many thanks to Lorraine and George for a great stay and for the fresh eggs!!

Had a really pleasant stay. John was a very responsive and proactive host, we enjoyed his property very much!

A very stylish, comfortable, warm and cosy place to stay with views of Skye, weather permitting. Sorry it couldn’t be longer. Love the decor, very comfy lounge and bed.

we absolutely loved staying at Marie's place. The house had everything you need and was nice and clean. We got lucky and had a beautiful sunset visible through the living room window! The views are amazing and it is in a great location to explore Skye! I would definitely recommend Marie's place to other travellers!

We really enjoyed Rachel's place. It was close to town and to lots of activities on the island. The bed was comfortable, the shower water was instantly hot, the wi-fi worked well, the kitchen was clean (and the pots and pans looked new) the parking was off the street and private. We could walk right into town and we could drive to lots of the sites on the island. She even offered to do some laundry for us. It was the kind of private place in which we didn't even need to lock the door and didn't. I would recommend Rachel's place to anyone and would stay again if in the area.

This place is fantastic, super cozy, beautifully furnished, and equipped with everything you could possibly need (and more!). Sheila was always quick to respond to our questions and incredibly helpful throughout our stay. We would definitely recommend it

We had such an amazing stay! We felt like it was a home away from home. The hosts had thought of everything, even binoculars to look at the amazing views! Everything for our stay was explained very well and the hosts gave us recommendations of things to do locally. We even booked a falconry experience based on the leaflets that were left. Thankyou to you both for a perfect stay. We were sad to leave today.

John was a great host. He made sure we had everything we needed and gave some tips. His place was lovely. It is also in a great location for anybody wanting to explore the Isle of Skye.

Optimally located accommodation, which was lovingly furnished and clean. Communication with the hostess was also excellent.

Stayed at Fiona's flat for two nights in June 2025. The apartment has lovely views of Mallaig Harbour so you can watch the boats coming and going and is just a short 5-10 minute walk from the town centre. The property was easy to find and access thanks to the clear instructions provided, and exceptionally clean. The flat is also very comfortable. Overall, we had an excellent stay and will most definitely return in the very near future.
