Cosy cottage with very good amenities and cooking facilities. Lovely having a wood burner for chilly evenings and a separate room for television. Generous heating if cold. Beautiful views from the extensive windows of the Cuillins enjoyed from the very comfortable sunroom. We would go back.

We absolutely loved our stay. Torrin is a hidden gem on Skye. Peaceful and so close to many hikes not yet overrun by tourists. The unit was spotless, modern and spacious. Fully equipped with all the kitchen gear we needed. It was such a bonus to have a dishwasher and washing machine as well. Highly recommend staying here!
