Fantastic accommodation, the hosts have thought of absolutely everything you could want or need! Spotlessly clean, and the additional treats as well as fresh milk in the fridge were very much appreciated after a long journey up to Skye. The bed was comfy & the shower was amazing! Best of all was the view from the cottage, there are no other words than just 'Wow' we could quite happily have stayed....forever! Loved it so much ♥️

Absolutely loved our stay at half of 2. It's such a beautiful location. The views were stunning. The peace and quiet was welcoming. The cottage was warm and cosy. Everthing you needed to make your stay comfortable and worry free. The information folder was so helpful regarding how everything worked, etc.The underfloor heating in the bathroom/shower rooms was amazing and so welcome.A place to relax, or find adventure on walks, etc.
