About this cottage rental

Come and relax in a traditional detached crofter's cottage in the picturesque village of Torrin on the Isle of Skye. A fabulous base from which you can easily enjoy all the wonders of Skye.

Torrin is a beautiful village on the shores of Loch Slapin, close to a gorgeous secluded beach and nestled between the Red Cuillin hills and the mighty Bla Bhienn (pronounced Blaven, it means blue mountain). Bla Bhienn is our favourite mountain and arguably the finest Munro in Scotland!
Perfect for exploring, relaxing, walking, climbing, cycling, photographers and geologists!

The cottages been in our family for over 150 years. In 2017 we've completed a full upgrade of the whole cottage. It's wonderfully homely and comfortable and very very peaceful.

As a traditional cottage, the stairs are rather steep and narrow so care should be taken at all times.

Large cultivated mature garden with further grounds surrounding the house.

Our cottage is situated up a track off the main road. There's free parking with room for two cars in the drive on our property.

The cottage is in the village of Torrin, 7 miles from Broadford which is a lovely town with a beautiful bay and views to the mainland. It has a good variety of shops, including an artisan bakery, craft shops and Skye candles plus a really excellent Co-Op supermarket, 24 hour garage and chemist. There is a doctor, hospital, dentist, church also. There are restaurants, cafes, fish and chip shop and hotel bars. And there are two ATM cash machines, a Post Office and a mobile bank.

An absolute cracker of a cottage, bag full of character and spot on location wise for exploring the south part of Skye including the amazing Cuillin Mountains.Hidden away just off the main road through Torrin, it sits in beautiful garden surroundings alongside a clutch of other similar cottages. Facilities were first class, clean and tidy with plenty of space to relax should the notorious Skye weather hit!Communication from the owner was clear and friendly with a detailed and helpful 'things to do in Skye's info sheet issued prior to our arrival. Couldn't have asked for anything more in preparation.If exploring, hiking and outdoor adventures is your thing then Skye has all of this in bucket loads, and this cottage is perfect as a place to stay for your next trip to this beautiful isle.

Brilliant area to explore by bike and foot. Nice house, beautiful garden.However, Vrbo difficult to use. Often couldn’t access communication from owner.

Brilliant cottage, close enough to the main roads to get out and see Skye but far enough away to make it peaceful and secluded. Had some trouble with the heating as it has all been turned off and with us having mostly classic Scottish weather we were all a bit damp. Got the heating sorted and the fire on by the second day and we were well away! Cottage was plenty big enough for 6 adults and had lots to do even on a rainy day with books, games and local walks down to the loch and Torrin Pools making for some lovely evenings in.
