It is situated right on the shore of the Inner Sound, with views across Broadford Bay towards the island of Pabay and the Applecross Peninsula beyond. It’s a perfect spot, and with such a large tidal range just outside the property, the view is constantly changing. When the tide is in, the water will be lapping the garden edge, but at low tide there’s a marvellous beach that goes from the garden for miles and miles.
The Isle View Nest is perfectly formed and a couple will love it, the cabin and has its own decking with furniture, just the spot where you can enjoy a bottle of wine. The sliding patio doors lead into the open plan living/dining room/kitchen. There’s comfortable seating, a nice little table and a very large, modern kitchen with all the appliances you will need. The 50” Smart TV is a bonus, too. But the real asset of this room is the wall of glass that allows an enormous amount of light to flood in, but also gives you the chance to simply watch this wonderful coastal scene change minute-by-minute. Beyond the living area is the double bedroom space, which is separated by a low wall, so The Isle View Nest is essentially a studio cabin. A walk-in shower is off of the bedroom.
The Isle View Nest is very well placed for couples wanting to explore all corners of Skye, with The Old Man of Storr and the Quiraing only 40 minutes away. Point Neist Lighthouse is 50 minutes, and the magnificent Cuillin is only 20 minutes away. Elgol and the Sleat Peninsula are also very close. Broadford has an excellent supermarket and plenty of restaurants and bars to enjoy after rushing around seeing the many things Skye has to offer. Beach 100 yards. Shop, pub and restaurant 1 mile.
The Isle View Nest can be booked together with Isle View (28284) to accommodate up to 6 guests.

A fabulous find for a cold rainy week in November. The Nest was small but perfectly formed. It had everything we needed and was warm and cosy as we say looking out the windows at the ever changing weather. Plenty of hot water, the radiators warmed up quickly and the place kept it's heat. Cooking appliances great. Fridge good size with a freezer compartment. It would be good to have a slightly taller cupboard maybe above the microwave to store some of our food stuff. The internet is great though did have some times where it dropped out when we were watching the smart TV channels but I think this is just the challenge of living on an island. I would definitely go again.... maybe in the summer next time.
