What our customers say about their holidays
Matt - Verified booking
We arrived at the house on a wild rainy night and it instantly felt like a home from home.
The house is larger than expected, well equipped and extremely clean, which is very reassuring given the current pandemic situation. The wood burner was lovely with the added bonus of a complimentary basket of logs! The kitchen had everything you would ever need, and the cottage had lovely touches including maps, books and guides for the local area. The internet worked perfectly (those with tech wise kids will understand the need!!). The Smart TV was great and streamed iPlayer and Netflix with no problem. The following morning the sun came out and the house filled with light, the views are spectacular, with the large panoramic windows making it a fabulous place to sit. The MistyIsle boat trip to Loch Coruisk was fantastic, we saw minke whales and seals, the children loved the whole experience. The local shop was great but itâs worth stocking up at the Co-op in Broadford on your way through. We walked to Bonnie Prince Charlieâs cave which wasnât far and easily manageable for the kids. They also loved playing on the beach near the harbour, a short walk from the house. The beds were really comfortable and bathrooms modern with plenty of hot water. We would thoroughly recommend staying here and would come back in a heart beat! Sykes were amazing as always, we are continually impressed with the professionalism and service they offer.

Booking might well have been compromised if the owner and I had been unable to come to an agreement over our dogs.
Thankfully resolved. I had previously visited Askival and its former owners, but had never stayed, but was aware of its location so when viewed on 'Sykes' website knew it was a great property and all our party of seven required was some good weather! The house is in a prime situation overlooking Elgol bay, Ardnamurchan, the 'Small Isles' to the south and west with the Cuillen Ridge to the North, and from the top of the garden completing the 360' to Glenelg and Kintail. A truly stunning location! Askival easily accommodated our party of seven guests with a well laid out interior with accompanying en Suite for the 3 main bedrooms and a separate bathroom and shower for an upstairs lounge with pull out bed. The whole property was furnished to a very high standard throughout and pristinely clean, with the added bonus of a 'deck' accessible from the panorama lounge and exterior. The owners have provided blown up photographs of the surrounding views and popular places in Skye and these add a modern ambience to the property. During our week we were blessed with the very best of West Coast weather and we're able to enjoy Skye, its environs and the islands at their very best. We all found it difficult to drag ourselves away from Askival at the end of our lovely week. No doubt we shall return!

Beautiful isolation!
Elgol is a fantastic place with amazing views and surprising wildlife. The weather (as you might expect) can change from minute to minute and usually comes with a healthy breeze. I travelled to Askival with a mixed party of eight. We had teenagers, young people and parents. The house itself is just perfect. Spacious, modern, warm and brilliantly equipped. It's decorated beautifully and has lovely features. The owners have a great eye for style and its a fantastic place to stay. I can't think of anything that could be improved and we all loved it from the moment we arrived. Excellent value for money and even better than it looks in the pictures. Elgol is the quieter part of the island and if you want hustle and bustle this is NOT the place for you. The best words to describe the area are wild and remote but also spectacular and amazing. It takes around half an hour to drive from the last real 'town' area down a one car wide road to get to Askival but it's always an eventful journey peppered with sheep, highland cattle and (if you are lucky - and you probably will be) even the odd stag! If you love the outdoors and want a base for great walks; boat trips to even more remote islands; Lochs; access to mountains and peaceful isolation this is the place to go.

If there is ever a place if Eutopia for stressed city people to find, it would be 'Askival'.
We were spoilt by this beautiful property, and the weather was a magnificent 10/10 while we were there. The views? Down right amazing, and the fresh air was very restorative. It was lovely to get a welcoming phone call from the owner on arrival, and any queries I directed toward the housekeeper were met with prompt, friendly responses. My husband-- a chef by trade-- remarked how extensive the range of kitchen equipment there was. Shop at the nearby village of Broadford's CO-OP as you go up, it will save heaps if car space, and the store is a very large and well-equipped one. Also, the 15 mile journey between Broadford and the crofting community of Elgol is a long, windy and one roaded, and make a the journey feel much longer. If the house doesn't wow you, the views will. And if THEY don't, you have no business being there. Thank you for such an amazing stay.

The cottage is fantastic.
Immaculate well designed and stylishly decorated. It's warm,cosy and very comfortable with a great size bed, and plenty of hanging space. Lovely hosts left us a beautiful welcome pack and made us feel very welcome. Provided great information before our arrival. It has a great outdoor space fabulous hot tub and the access to the little room at the back of the house is great for drying wet towels etc. It is right in the heart of the town so everything is on hand good bus service to local area's if you don't want to take the car. Lovely places to eat in the town and locally. The cottage has everything you could possibly need in a great location we had a wonderful stay would happily stay again and recommend it to anyone.
