    Fantastic views - even on a rainy day ! The property is in a very quiet location with only a couple of properties around . Closest shops are a couple of miles away along single track roads running through some amazing countryside. We had a wonderful week there .

    This was a holiday booked to celebrate my 50th birthday. We were looking for something spectacular, and this meet that 'look'. The cottage was a fantastic base to explore Skye. The views are panoramic and from the front garden we saw: dolphins, buzzards, deer & an owl. The cottage itself is well equiped. It has underfloor heating which was fantastic at heating the cottage and cold feet, so much so that we didn't even use the log burner. My wife stated she's sold on underfloor heating. The shower pressure was brilliant and a double size so plenty of space to move around in. We didn't use the bath but it was wide and deep and has a shower attachment which i'm told is good for long hair washing. The beds, bedding, fixtures, fittings and furniture were quality. The wifi signal was strong throughout the stay. Mark & Fiona were great in dealing with a minor issue we had. The arrival instructions and cottage instructions were at the right level i thought. The whole stay was peaceful and we were a bit sad to leave, that's a first for us. I have a feeling we will be returning to Red Chimneys Cottage!

    Upon arrival, guests are greeted with a welcome gift of locally brewed beer and fudge. The views of Loch Dunvegan are utterly breathtaking and there is an abundance of wildlife present, such as seals, dolphins, eagles, deer and falcons.
