We were taken good care of while visiting Annie's cottage. The booking intermediary (or yours truly) failed to mention we had two littles in tow, and our hostess was able to help equip us with the extra bedding we needed ASAP, and even added in extra cookies for the kids! The local park right across the street was a huge bonus. Would stay here again if on Skye.

The apartment was in a very nice location peaceful and convenient for exploring Edinburgh. The accommodation was comfortable, and had everything we needed for a pleasant stay.

Nice cottage in a quiet location, good pub nearby. Enough room for a family of four. Rooms very cosy, if a bit dark during daytime. Good access to all the attractions of northern Skye.
