"It was a wonderful trip and the Croft House was an excellent location. The rental was comfortable, clean, cozy and well equipped. I highly recommend the Croft House for a stay on the Isle of Skye. "

"We loved the remote, tranquil location. Well positioned to visit Neist Lighthouse, Dunvegan, Skye Weavers and to enjoy an exceptional dinner at Three Chimneys. Cafe Lephin also is a very cool spot with a great playlist and makes for a nice mid-morning or afternoon spot for coffee, tea and scones. The general store is surprisingly well stocked! The house is nicely updated and the space was terrific for us traveling with our young adult son. Getting there: Don't follow Google maps, it brings you in on a road that runs up the hill well behind the house with no access. Beach Road isnt labeled but make the right turn ar Hararra Lodge and head up the hill. Hopefully the internet will be up and running for the next visitors."

"This is a beautiful bungalow, well equipped and perfectly located for visiting Benbecula and the Uists. Our host was extremely helpful and always very quick to respond. We had a ferry cancellation and he offered us an extra night as he had no other guests expected which was extremely kind. He also gave us lots of tips for places to visit and where to eat.The home is spacious and close to a supermarket, baker, butcher and a couple of places to eat. There is a lovely beach 10 minutes walk away. We reported a small issue which was fixed quickly.Altogether a wonderful stay in a lovely home."

"A lovely cosy cottage in a beautiful secluded location, within minutes walk of the rugged coast or a few minutes drive to a fabulous sandy bay. Facilities seem complete, with nothing else needed for our stay and the cottage was spotless and warm when we arrived.The entire region is visually stunning. Host is friendly and responsive if needed."

"We had many troubles with our stay, from vrbo, to cottages.com (who represent the property) to the actual property owner.The good news is that we enjoyed the area. The house was quaint. Low ceilings (which we often bumped our heads on at night). The place was cute in a rural area we enjoyed.The bad news1) we (my fault) booked one more night than we needed. We fully booked 1 month prior to arriving, and when we contacted Cottages.com they said we were too close to the checkin date to alter the reseration.2) why were we contacting Cottages.com and not VRBO ? Because the VRBO chat tool to contact the host gave us errors everytime we messaged the host. Telling us our email address was wrong. Pardon ? I changed the email address, that didn't help. Then I called VRBO on the phone (because their bot chat was completely unhelpful). The representative assured me we would not have further problems, and the checkin instructions would arrive prior to our arrive.3) the checkin instructions did not arrive. This time I called Cottages.com myself (avoided VRBO). After 30 minutes on the phone, Cottages emailed me directly the checkin directions.4) the next morning, as we got ready to explore The Isle Of Skye, we could not lock the front door - door lock was not functioning. I txted the actual owner about the lock, 1 week later have not had a reply.I would avoid this place unless you feel comfortable facing the same issues we did."

"A beautiful property in a stunning location. Perfectly sized for my family of 5. Would have loved to have been able to stay longer. A huge selection of activities and equipment available to try at the property and communication with the owner was terrific. Would definitely recommend. "

"Jane, our host was very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was top notch. Room had all we could ask for. "

"Fantastic place, Rupert is a fantastic host with great local knowledge and his breakfast is outstanding. "

"Beautiful cottage. Very comfortable and cosy with gorgeous artwork by one of the owners. Surrounded by wildlife. Pond in the garden with waterlilies and a gate down to the lochan. Everything was spotless and felt new."
