Snaptrip says

Burnside Cottage receives high praise for its stunning loch views, immaculate condition, and high-quality furnishings. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, comfortable living spaces, and thoughtful touches like fresh flowers and local fudge. The central location on Skye makes it an ideal base for exploring the island, despite some noting the long drive from mainland UK. The lack of reliable internet is a minor drawback for some, but overall, the cottage offers a memorable and luxurious stay.

Guests that stayed at this property said

Reviewers consistently mention the spotless and well-maintained state of the cottage, indicating exceptional cleanliness that contributes to a comfortable and welcoming stay.

The cottage's central position on the Isle of Skye, with its breathtaking loch views and proximity to local attractions, is highly valued by guests, despite the distance for some travellers.

Guests report a high level of comfort, with numerous mentions of the cosy atmosphere, underfloor heating, and quality of the beds and furnishings.

The property is lauded for its comprehensive facilities, including a well-stocked kitchen and entertainment options. However, some guests noted the lack of reliable internet connection to the smart TV, slightly impacting the score.

Visitors frequently express gratitude for the considerate touches like fresh flowers and a box of fudge. While these gestures are greatly appreciated, it's important to note that such personal touches may vary and are not guaranteed.
