Myself and my partner have stayed at the Sheiling Skye in April. We have been absolutely delighted with the property, its location, and the wonderful owners and can’t recommend more. The cabin offers everything that you need for a stay and more. It’s very nicely and comfortably decorated, filled with everything that you need for a few days away including a very nice kitchen, and is located at a very picturesque spot only 15 mins drive away from Dunvegan and about 25 mins drive away from the Neist Point. Sarah is beyond lovely and a very helpful host. Thanks so very much
