About this cottage rental
Raven Cottage features a lounge with a woodburning stove for cosy nights in. There is a TV and a DVD player well stocked with DVD's for your enjoyment. We have super fast Starlink satellite Wi-Fi with download speeds of about 200mbps. The kitchen/dining room is modern with all conveniences, including a dishwasher and seats six comfortably.
There is a large utility/cloak room with washing machine and tumble dryer and further inner cloakroom/store for all the things you never know where to put.
On the ground level there are two bedrooms; one double and one bunk room with full size beds sharing a bathroom (bath and overhead shower).
Upstairs, accessed by an Italian beech spiral staircase, is the master bedroom with king size bed and en suite shower room. There is also a reading and games area with table football.
Outside is a large fully enclosed garden for children to play and explore (being aware of the stream mentioned below) and for all to enjoy the magnificent mountain scenery and the local wildlife (including ravens, buzzards, owls, bats, golden and sea eagles and occasionally otters and pine martens). The Allt nam Fitheach stream marks the easterly boundary of the garden and can be enjoyed from the overhanging decking. There is a shed that houses garden chairs etc and has space to store bikes etc. Glenbrittle Forest is across from the stream and offers excellent walking and cycling with magnificent views of the Cuillins. There is also a sea kayak put in point less than 2km from the cottage. It’s only about a 10 minute drive to Carbost with local amenities (shop, pub, distillery, cafes etc) and a 15 minute drive (depending on number of camper vans) to the Slig and Fairy pools for trips into the Cuillins.

The cottage is very well appointed. It included everything we needed to be comfortable. The location was very peaceful, yet close enough to many places to visit. We would definitely rent Raven Cottage again.

Superb accommodation in a very quiet part of Skye - remote setting but easily accessible with a bit of driving. Wonderful local walks nearby. Lovely garden too. Everything you could possibly need provided. Laundry facilities particularly good - new washing machine, tumble dryer and airer. The main bedroom is spacious with lovely views. Can’t fault the place. Would love to stay again if we return to Skye

Everything was available that we needed
6 / 10Average·Nov 2022
An amazing property in a beautiful location. Our communication was sub-optimal though - the locks on the house didn't work and we weren't able to get them fixed, then we were charged extra for a small tear on a sheet and a stain on another. Is this normal? Hmmm. Very quiet spot, slightly off the beaten track, well-suited to those who want to avoid crowds.
