Beachfront vacation rentals in Gruinard Bay

We had a great couple of days in Talmine. Jenny and Andy are lovely friendly hosts. The Wee Housie had everything as described and everything we needed. Very comfortable for us and our dog. The views from the front are stunning. Some great walks and trails around - we did Castle Vallich, around Tongue and then drove the loch. Great place to stop on our journey around the North of Scotland.

Great host and loved the location and accommodation. Garden was great for the dogs and chilling with a beer and beautiful beach 5 minutes across the road. Locals and neighbours were very friendly Travelled to John ‘Groats, The Black Isle and Nairn during our stay. Highly recommend as either a base for touring or just a peaceful break in beautiful unspoilt surroundings.

The cottage was adorable and the location absolutely beautiful! We spent some time on the beach soaking in the sunset over the water. Phil was a fantastic host - super attentive and informative. Wish we could’ve stayed longer!

This was one of the best AB&B we have stayed at. Such a warm and clean property, with views of the beach that were breathtaking! A great central location to explore the North Coast. Although very rural and quiet, there is a nice coffee hut a few minutes walk in one direction and a lovely camp site in the other, with a cafe, restaurant and pub. The owners live on the site but were never seen or heard and it felt very private. They were on hand if anything was required and gave lots of helpful information. Our dog Rusty absolutely loved the large lawned area at the front of the property, which was totally enclosed and secure. We would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the North Coast.

Harbour House was the perfect place to stay for our trip to the Isle of Skye. The views are amazing and proximity to hikes, distilleries, etc. was exactly what we were looking for! Fiona was very helpful in sharing directions and recommendations leading up to our stay. We hope to be back sometime in the future!

Beautiful place by the water, responsive and helpful host. Amazing bathroom all my friends told me to say! Ha

When we arrived at Juliet’s cottage we instantly knew we were in for a treat. With lambs and bunnies literally outside the front door - we felt fully immersed in nature. The cottage has been beautifully decorated with extra special touches including the local artwork and textiles. We absolutely loved our stay, and feel incredibly grateful that we were lucky enough to experience Skirnish Cottage whilst on a trip visiting Scotland (where my family is originally from) with our 1 year old before our next baby arrives!

Very cozy house. Everything is designed to make vacationers comfortable: space in and on the cupboards, a clothes drying rack, a coffee maker. Very professional. The environment is particularly peaceful. Three houses away, an inn where we spent a very Scottish evening with bagpipes, guitar and bombard with beer etc, full of people. Recommended by Joël. The food looked great. In short, we are won over and we recommend

Beautiful, quiet location. Caravan is nicer than the pictures show. Evelyn is a lovely host. We walked up to the Old Man of Storr, walked the fairy pools, visited Armadale Castle Gardens and Portree where the IoS pipe band were playing in the square. Drove through Quiraing to the Fairy Glen. Nice ice creams and friendly service from the Market Kitchen, also the deli opposite and Broadford Hotel. Efficient service received from Skye fit garage. Overall a fabulous experience.

It is a peaceful place with great location. Directly located at the beach, has a great view even from inside. There are couple of great restaurants and a supermarket in walking distance. Debbie was a great host and extremely friendly to us. Highly recommended.

There is not enough space in this box for me to express how lovely Fiona and her cottage are! Everything is exactly as pictured (actually even more beautiful than pictured) and Fiona is lovely, incredibly responsive to any messages and happy to go above and beyond for any questions that I had. Everything in the cottage is clearly labeled with helpful instructions for use, and Fiona reviewed everything with me at check-in as well. I was traveling alone, and she checked in with me several times to make sure I was comfortable and ensure that everything was going well. A minor repair was needed while I was there and Fiona's husband quickly addressed it and was very considerate with ensuring the repair was done at a time that I would be out. The surroundings are peaceful and incredibly beautiful. I will absolutely be back!

Such a beautiful opportunity to experience the quiet and authentic side of Stornaway. We loved every minute we spent at The Bunker! The views were spectacular and the sunrises/sunsets ever changing. The kitchen was sprinkled with locally baked treats and even homemade jam for us to enjoy. It was such a delight. The only drawback, for me personally, is how I move forward with no warming towel rack in my life!! I can’t unfeel the delightfulness of warmed clothes on a chilly morning. They are not common in the states. On a scale of one to ten, The Bunker was easily a 72 ;).

My partner and I had an incredible time at Sandava for his 30th birthday. The view from the cabin is incredible and we spent many an evening just sat in front of the window with our books. The location is a quiet area of the island which was exactly what we wanted, but still close enough by car to all the main attractions of Skye. Would absolutely stay here again and would recommend to others.

Leo’s place was amazing—super comfy and spacious with absolutely breathtaking views. I’ll admit, I thought the GPS had lost its mind a couple of times… those roads are narrow. But hey, dodging sheep and cows turned out to be half the adventure! We have so many pictures of them on the road ❤️. Leo and his wife were incredibly responsive and answered all my (many) questions quickly. We already miss Fisherman’s Loft!

Definitely a five star experience: we were having a great AirBnB stay. This apartment is in excellent shape, very clean and provides all accessories one can think of. The hosts were extremely friendly and very concerned about our well-being. We even have been surprised with welcome goodies. Great place to stay for Isle of Skye!

We loved the quiet rural setting on the loch with colours changing in the light all day long. The villages and towns in the area had some good restaurants and we found many places for long walks. The facilities at the house were adequate for cooking and leisure. The only downside, which did not affect us really, were some peculiarities that we've never before encountered in the many airBNBs we have rented in the past: several rooms, closets and cupboards were locked and off-limits; and many rather unnecessary "polite advice" signs posted. In our previous experience, the number of guests has had no effect on access.

Linden House 4 bedroom bungalow with two car park spaces. It is new property with fresh look from inside. Scenic view from longue. We enjoyed stay a lot.

Fantastic stay! The place was spotless, well-equipped, and everything was exactly as described. We were traveling with elderly family members, and the home was very accessible and comfortable for them. Couldn’t have asked for more. Would definitely come again!

We had a wonderful stay here! The house was cozy, clean, and full of character, set in a beautiful and peaceful location. Communication with the host was excellent — clear, prompt, and helpful throughout. The amenities provided made our stay very comfortable. We truly enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway!

We have just had a fantastic family holiday in Mark's beautiful house in Ardelve. The house is very spacious and thoughtfully laid out, with top quality furnishings and equipment and we especially liked the large living room, modern kitchen and using the games room. The house sits right on Loch Alsh and has incredible views towards the Five Sisters which have got to be up there with the very best in Scotland. The family made a lot of use of the loch to both swim and Kayak on and we managed to see a seal and a sea eagle every day from the house's large windows. Ardelve is also a wonderful location, as it gives you easy access to the Isle of Skye , loch Carron with the stunning village of Plockton and walking round the loch to the world famous Eilean Donan castle. Eating out and take away options in the area are also excellent particularly for seafood & fresh fish and is a must to try for any visitor. We loved our time at the But N Ben and will certainly return in the future.

A little piece of Heaven. Fantastic house, surrounding and view. We fought for the couch to bird watch over tidal pool. Can't say enough about this property and our host. Until next time.

We had a fantastic stay! The house was absolutely beautiful—immaculately kept, well-equipped with everything we needed and more. The location is stunning, perfect for exploring the surrounding area and Skye. Sarah Jane and Steve were lovely and always on hand if we needed anything. We truly couldn’t recommend this place highly enough. Six days wasn’t nearly long enough—we’d love to return. Thank you, Sarah Jane, it was perfect!

This place was the absolute best - I really hope to be able to go back some time. The house is large and comfortable, is SO well supplied, is very close to a gorgeous beach and is surrounded by the most beautiful scenery. Lochinver is a really cool town nearby, and Ullapool is amazing and only about an hour. The owner was very communicative around all the details and was flexible when we requested to make a couple of changes. In short, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

We had a wonderful time at the house. The architecture is beautiful and the view stunning. The kitchen was fully stocked and a supermarked is just a 10 min drive away Therefore we had nice breakfast and dinner at the house. George prepared a lovely welcome present with nice cookies and crisps. We would highly recommend staying at George‘s place.
