Cottage vacation rentals in Eilean Donan

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 Stars! Excellent home in a really peaceful beautiful location. It was easy to find and no issues entering the property. Stunning old house which clearly has a lot of history. The home was well presented and we found it comfortable. All the instructions were clear. The hot tub was excellent and the kids loved it. So peaceful at night. Only a 10 min drive into Alyth where there is a couple of shops, but many many lovely walks about ideal for dogs. The wifi was a bit hit and miss we struggled watching tv as it kept freezing with no signal. However given the rural location this is excepted and didn’t bother us too much. AGA cooker was great a real experience and I’m sure in the winter it’s beautiful and warm. Overall we would recommend the property, my only room for improvement would be looking into the WiFi and potentially adding a better dining table and chairs outside. It would have been lovely to dine outside on some more comfort chairs and better seating. Still 5 stars!

A lovely, peaceful cottage ; clean, cozy, and fully equipped for a comfortable stay. The host was helpful and responsive, with thoughtful touches throughout. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a relaxing getaway.

This garden cottage was straight out of a romantic fairytale! The gorgeous garden surrounding the cottage and the view of the water and misty rolling hills framed perfectly by a stone wall and ivy were just breathtaking (especially while sitting in the wood fire heated hot tub). The cottage itself was incredibly cozy. We had nearly gotten stranded on Islay with car issues and we weren’t even sure we’d get to enjoy this stop on our holiday. By the time we arrived, we were completely exhausted from the chaos of the previous 24 hours so this relaxing and welcoming space was exactly what we needed to decompress. ☺️ The cottage was well equipped and very clean! We had everything we needed and then some. Caroline was an exceptional host. She was remarkably responsive and lovely to interact with both prior to our stay (when we weren’t sure we’d be able to make it) and during our stay! Anyone with the opportunity to stay here, should absolutely do it! Thank you for everything, Caroline!!

We stayed here a few days in May. The Cottage is very remote, but you can reach the next village in arround 10 minutes by car. It offers great views of the surrounding area. the hot tub was amazing. Also the fireplace. we came to do some hikes and in the end decided to stay a whole day in the cottage, because it was so great.

We had an amazing couple of days in this awesome Airbnb. Michelle gave us a warm welcome, when we arrived. The house is a perfect place to explore the Isle of Skye and relax in the hut tub in the evening and enjoy the sea view. We would have wished to stay longer and will definitely be back. One hundred percent recommended.

It was a beautiful area, and the place itself was lovely, very easily made our home for the time of our stay, the utilities were easy to use and it was overall a very comfortable stay

This was a great find. Katrina is one of the most responsive and informative hosts I have had on Airbnb. Being from out of the country we had several questions and she answered so quickly. There were some hiking trails near by which was a nice surprise, and Katrina recommended Gloagburn which was a hidden gem! Would recommend this to anyone looking to be off the beaten path but still have plenty to do!

The house was wonderful - we were delighted with both the location and with the property. The house was immaculate, and beautifully furnished with some really lovely pictures and objects throughout. The rooms were all good-sized and bright with the kitchen/dining area overlooking the garden a real standout. It was very well maintained and it felt like a proper home from home. The location was really lovely too - nice and quiet with a very short walk to the beach. We particularly enjoyed our walks around the area and along to Chanonry Point to look for the dolphins. A local pub and a lovely restaurant were close by too which was a bonus! Our host, Eva, provided us with clear and concise information prior to our arrival and messaged us a couple of times during our stay to make sure that all was in order. This was very much appreciated. We would not hesitate to recommend the property to others, and we certainly plan to visit again!

great stay at obbe view! gorgeous views and an easy to find location with plenty of space and kitchen amenities. if you are staying in the summer, recommend an eye mask to block out the long hours of sunlight! enjoyed the skylights in the bedrooms for natural lighting. thanks for a great stay.

House it's very cosy, we felt like at home. Place is beautiful I've just wish we could stay longer...

Beautiful cottage. Felt out of the way but was close to road into portree. Very warm building, bathroom and rooms superb. Would highly recommend and revisit. Visiting sheep was an added bonus!

Located in a very peaceful and private village in Ord. The house is extremely cosy and clean giving all of us a home feeling rather than a place just for temporary stay. Love the homemade baked scones from the host too!

Beautifully presented cottage with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It’s a 7 mile journey on a single track road from Gairloch but it’s worth the journey.

This cottage fully deserves its star rating and one of the few we would visit again without hesitation. Very generous and tasteful accommodation for two, the welcome pack was a really lovely touch and the outside bath an unexpected treat looking over the fields and beautiful view. Have stayed at others designated rare gems before but this is the first to more than live up to that billing. The midday checkout on Sunday helped with the relaxation factor.

We spent a very nice week in the vacation home. If you are looking for seclusion and tranquility, this is the place to be. The house is very modern, nicely decorated and we felt right at home. Our dogs enjoyed the fenced garden very much. Although dogs are allowed and blankets are also available for them, the house was very clean when we arrived. We can only recommend the property. But you should be aware that it is very remote. There are other houses around, but no real place or the like. On foot or by car you can reach great beaches, unfortunately we did not find real hiking trails, you usually walk along the road or through sheep pens (leash dogs!) A dream for a few days of togetherness and tranquility!

Stephanie didn't promise too much. A lovely apartment: so cosy and comfy. Everything fits together. The furnishment is in the same color as the laundry, the plates fit to the cups. Incredible. From the bed you have also a view to the green as from the kitchen table. There is also a lovely sofa next to the oven, where you can sit by a fire after a long day. You have the opportunity to cook on a gas stove, there is a big fridge even with a freezer for tour own food, also a kettle and a toast machine is available. The bed is comfy, and you can sleep wonderful there, as it is peaceful and quiet. The dog is friendly and happy to cuddle and play. There are wine and jam to buy (selfmade) for a fair price and the appartment is very very clean. Kind of a fairy apartment. You have a view into the green (fits to the inside). Your car parked can enjoy the sea view, and no wishes were open. At least for us. We enjoyed it really and want to come back one day.

Joyce’s studio was a stunning place to stay. It’s near enough to local amenities and the key things to do on the Isle of Skye, whilst being off-grid for a private and special place to stay. The scenery is absolutely wonderful and the location is very quiet and idyllic. The space has been designed very well and we immediately felt at home. Very clean, great kitchen with all the required amenities and a good sized bathroom with a great shower. The bed was comfortable and lounge area was perfectly placed to look out over the loch. We would absolutely stay here again if ever back on the Isle of Skye.

Out of all the places that we stayed while in Scotland, this was our favorite. It felt very homey and comfortable and super clean. We had a few visitors like chickens and a little lost sheep named Lucky Bucky. It was a beautiful home with all the amenities. The shower was very nice and hot and strong. The bed was comfortable in the bedding was luxurious. It wasn't but a ten minute drive to town to get groceries or go to a restaurant to eat. Location to the isle of skye was perfect. You will not be disappointed if you stay here.

A stunning location for this cottage. It was peaceful and has incredible views over the waters to the mountains. It was wonderful to see the tide come and go, we felt close to nature. The cottage was clean and well stocked with kitchen equipment. There are games and books and enough for wood for your first night there. Underfloor heating was lovely and the fire heated the house really well to the point I needed to open the door to cool down - which is great to know you won’t be cold when you’re up there at the end of Autumn! Having a bath while looking out in the views to the mountains felt like a luxury.

Kenneth's place is simply fantastic. The location, the tranquility, the amenities, everything you need is available. If we had more time, we would have stayed longer, but the visit is also worth it for 2 nights.

Fossil Cottage is an absolute gem! We loved our time there and cannot wait to go back. For us, it was all about the idyllic location, on top of which, the place is exactly as described: clean, comfortable and well equipped with everything you need. Despite being slightly off the beaten track, it is only a short distance off the main road hence conveniently placed for the amenities in Broadford or Kyle as well as for exploring the rest of this wonderful island. Our thanks to Fiona for being a great host, we hope to see you again before too long.

everything was extraordinary and the accommodation is excellently equipped...we felt like home...thank you very much

An absolutely charming place to stay. Extremely spacious and we loved the real Scottish vibe of the furnishings. A real bonus was the ample breakfast goods and little treats that were left for us…chocolates and shortbread biscuits. Heating, if required, was super efficient. There is a gorgeous outdoor area; unfortunately we didn’t get to enjoy it as it was too wet. Only a few minutes into Fort William, but a real rural feel. A perfect stay!

My mom and I stayed 2 nights at Gloria's while visiting Isle of Skye. We wish we had stayed there our entire visit to Scotland! It was an incredibly well appointed little house. It was private, immaculately clean and so comfortable. It had everything we needed. I would absolutely recommend this home and I look forward to staying here again.
