This stunning architect-designed property is situated on the water’s edge, with floor to ceiling windows, unrivalled views to the islands and its own private access to the shore. It is perfectly located for an easy walk or short drive to the shops and restaurants of Broadford, Skye's second largest village.

The property is elegantly furnished with Scottish tweeds and luxurious linens, underfloor heating and wooden floors. You'll find a master bedroom with a UK kingsize bed, electric blinds so that you can wake up to the view without even getting out of bed, and an ensuite bathroom with a shower and hand-made copper bath (with a view).

There is a second bathroom with a shower and the second bedroom is a cosy bunkroom, with solid, adult-sized wooden bunks designed by a Scottish furniture-maker. It conjures up hints of a ship’s cabin. We provide dressing gowns, towels, hairdryers, body wash, shampoo and towels.

The kitchen-diner is open plan with the lounge and the wood-burner has pride of place, making for cosy stays all year round. You’ll find a large smart TV, music system and plenty of games and books, but we suspect you’ll spend a good deal of your time looking out to sea or watching the weather fronts pass across the bay. Binoculars are provided.

The lounge leads out to a covered decking area where you can sit and gaze at the stars or look out for the glow of the Northern Lights in winter. The Shorehouse is close to one of Skye’s Dark Skies sites but you can see nearly as much from the comfort of your own Adirondack chair, hand made from whisky barrels and complete with a slot for your glass of wine.

The kitchen is well-equipped with oven, combi oven/microwave, dishwasher and large fridge freezer. We provide real coffee, tea, sugar and instant coffee, herbs and spices and basic condiments so you will be well set up for dining-in. We provide details of local suppliers in our welcome pack so you can pre-order.

There is also a utility room with washing machine and tumble dryer.

Outside there is private onsite parking for two cars and an EV charger for your private use if you have an electric car. (You must bring your own cable). We charge a reasonable fee for this.

Location-wise The Shorehouse has it all. Teeming birdlife, an island for exploring, and at low tide a glorious beach, perfect for romantic walks, games with the kids or a midnight dip. At high tide you’ll be just metres from the water’s edge – watch out for otters and deer or admire the views to the island of Pabay and beyond. We provide lots of ideas for walks from the door and recommend wellies or sturdy boots for year-round exploration.

For dining out there is a selection of restaurants and cafes in the village, all within walking distance or a short drive. You can leave the car behind for a relaxing night out or there are taxis available for venturing further afield.

Broadford is also in a great location for exploring the whole of Skye and Lochalsh – from the beautiful Sleat Peninsula, to the picturesque villages of Duirinish and Plockton across the Skye Bridge, to Elgol with its Cuillin panorama and all the main sites of Skye. The Storr and Fairy Pools are around 45 minutes drive away.

We're over the moon when our guests use words like 'superlative', 'exceptional', 'magical' to describe their stay at The Shorehouse and just as delighted when we learn how many people have become engaged, got married, enjoyed their honeymoon with us or simply come to celebrate a special moment in time.

With its sweeping vistas over the bay, enormous skies, ever-changing tides and waterfront views from the master bedroom, ensuite bathroom and living area, The Shorehouse is a place that will leave you with memories and where you can indulge your senses all year round.

Our check-in days are Monday, Wednesday or Friday meaning that our minimum stay is just two days although often people stay for much longer. We are open for most of the year.

We’re sorry but we don’t accept dogs in The Shorehouse.
