THE OLD FORESTRY COTTAGE, Portree

The Old Forestry Cottage offers a ground-floor holiday home with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Each bedroom has its own sink and a TV, a setup that guests have noted makes getting ready easy. The living room is spacious with windows allowing garden views, and the kitchen includes a dishwasher and washing machine for longer stays.

The private garden features outdoor furniture and a terrace where guests can sit and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The garden views are accessible from the living room and the outdoor seating area. This tucked-away location provides a quiet retreat while being close to town.

Dunvegan Castle is 34 km from the cottage, offering a day trip to one of Scotland's historic sites. Benbecula Airport is 102 km away, making it accessible for fly-in visitors. The cottage is a 5-minute walk from central Portree, allowing easy access to shops, restaurants, and the harbour.

Guests are welcomed with the lights and heaters already on, a small gesture noted in reviews. A generous number of packets of cereal and breakfast bars are provided so guests do not need to shop for breakfast immediately. Board games and puzzles are available for indoor entertainment.
