A perfect stay
Lochsie cottage is truly a perfect accommodation for anyone travelling to Portree or beyond. We stayed for 2 nights but wish we could have stayed more. Very comfortable in terms of space and amenities, and easily accessible from the main highway. Sparkling clean.

February Holiday
The cottage is very homely and spotlessly clean. It was a lovely, peaceful break and Lochsie was the perfect base, just a short drive to Portree. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to return in the future. Would highly recommend!!

Excellent cottage
We had a great time here and felt very welcome. The kitchen was great, the living room perfect to relax, nice bedroom and huge bathroom. Everything was perfectly clean. It’s a good starting point for exploring Skye if you have a car, Portree and a big supermarket are also pretty close. I’d definitely come here again, the cottage is just lovely.

Excellent stay
Lochsie Cottage was perfect for our stay in Skye. The cottage is spacious, modern and spotless. Loved having the open plan kitchen / lounge and it was equipped with everything we needed. It's a lovely setting and it's nice having a table and chair outside for when the sun is shining. Ben made us feel very welcome. Only a 5 minute drive from Portree and a great central location for accessing all the main attractions on Skye.

A wonderful cottage! Peaceful & Tranquil!
We’ve stayed here for 4 nights & I can say without hesitation that this place ranks quite in my top 10! Plenty of communications prior to our arrival, easy to follow instructions on arrival. A bottle of wine awaited us, the cottage was nice & “toasty”, plenty of Room for the two us, spacious bedroom, very spacious bathroom & toilet & a generous living/kitchen area. Kitchen is fully equipped with everything you might need. Clean rooms, neutral decor. Really quiet & peaceful place. Ben, the manager was very helpful & communicated quite promptly! A little issue with the door got sorted on a Sunday evening at 18.00 hrs despite us saying it’d suffice if it was sorted after we’d left! Just one complaint from me! They didn’t have a “midge exclusion zone”!! (Just kidding!)

A tranquil, well kitted-out stay in Portree
Peinmore House was exactly what we needed - a five minute drive to civilisation (Portree) with all the features and facilities we needed for those days where we wanted to stay in and do nothing. It's so quiet here that we could sleep without ear plugs, a novelty for folks like us hailing from Manchester. The timeless decor was lovely, and on good-weather days, you can make use of the courtyard outside for breakfast. The WiFi was a blessing, given how patchy mobile signal can be in Skye, and the bed in our cottage is one of the most comfortable I've ever slept on. Peinmore House gets my heartfelt recommendation, an easy 5-stars.

Great trip to Skye
Lochsie Cottage was the perfect place to stay. Great location and it was very comfortable. Everything we needed was there. Clear arrival and departure instructions and good communication links to accommodation provider if anything went wrong. Would definitely stay here again.

The cottage is very well-equipped and we had a lovely stay here. It is a perfect place for a family with a baby. They provided a high chair and a travel cot. Don is very nice to talk to and very helpful.

Skye Visit
Nice cottage inside, no need to bring anything, front door rattles in the wind though, also the lock is very close to the door knob and it's really awkward to try and turn, you also need to pull the door towards you a bit when locking/unlocking, one other thing to note, WiFi is non existent, there's a 4g router in the living room but as you can hardly get a mobile signal it's next to useless, we brought our firestick so we could watch Netflix but it just constantly buffered so gave up

Excellent stay
Excellent place to be based on Skye. Everything needed close by in Portree inc. nice restaurants / bars. Very comfortable with everything needed. Great to return to from a day out / hide from the weather!

Mainly very good
We enjoyed our stay and consider the property excellent, but with one or two minor grumbles. The WiFi needs improvement. All very on off, working then not working. The "Your Welcome" tablet didn't work. When we arrived it was plugged in to the sockets to the left of the TV. So we ignored it. We worked out just prior to departure that you need to double push a plug into those two sockets before a connection to power is made. End of grumbles!

The most adorable cottage
Our stay was fabulous, we only wish it could’ve been longer. The cottage is adorable and a great location for a quick drive into Portree Harbour. We hope to come again in the future!

Well appointed, peaceful spacious home
We were thrilled with our stay at this spacious well-equipped cottage! The birdfeeder outside our window sets such a peaceful atmosphere along with it’s distance from all other establishments. We requested help with use of the VCR and reported needing a mat to feel safe in the shower and the needs were met in less than a half hour. Great service.

Very nice accommodations!
Went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. Thanks to Ben for all his help.

Lovely cottage on Skye
Lochsie Cottage is ideally situated close to Portree. It is very well equipped and the decor and furnishings are great - everything is as described and it was very clean. There is an attractive garden to sit in too.

Fantastic stay. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly and were more than happy to help us out when the lock on the door broke. Would definitely stay here again

Beautiful and comfortable home away from home
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with you for three nights when we visited Skye! The cottage was clean, quiet, and had all the comforts of home to make our visit wonderful and relaxing! We appreciate your care, and would love to visit again! - the Pearmans from Nashville

Perfect Location
It is a lovely cottage. Has everything you might need. We had issues with the “Welcome” tablet. It was really never resolved. As Americans we were sadly unfamiliar with the washer/dryer together thing so there was a learning curve. The cottage was clean but could use a regrout in the shower. We had a wonderful stay and customer service was very good. Would stay again.

Big cottage
Nice big cottage, big bathroom and living area. Nice welcoming bottle. Only remark I have is that things are slightly old, doors don't close easily and the curtains are not dark enough.
August 2022 - Patricia A. (United States)
Wonderful Cottage
We spent 6 nights at Lochsie and would do it again! Don and Ben were so great to communicate with and were always responsive. One night there was a power outage on the island and Don brought over candles and matches if we needed them. Two suggestions, one being for the ladies. Add a mirror above the wicker chair in the bedroom. That is where you plug in the hair dryer and curling iron. The cords are too short to reach the mirror above the dresser. Secondly, the large rocks around the driveway circle can present a problem . We had issues getting out of the drive on our last day and a rock got stuck under the car. Fortunately we were able to dislodge the rock and another person helped move it for us. Other than those few things we loved our stay at Lochsie.

A week on Skye
Beautiful location and comfortable , well equipped cottage. Just beware of the awkward turn off the main road down to the property. There is an alternative route if you turn off at the signpost to the camping pods. The road is rougher but the turn on and off the A87 much easier to negotiate.

Lochsie Cottage
Absolutely beautiful. Arriving in the rain and wind, Lochsie cottage was warm, comforting and a perfect place to relax. Clean and tidy, with space to unpack, unwind and enjoy a glass of wine. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans and utensils. The bathroom filled with lovely smelling Arran products. The bed was super comfy and cosy. Location was great and easy to find; quiet and peaceful too. Lochsie cottage; the perfect place to relax and recharge.

Lochsie Cottage is a great place to stay!
Lochsie Cottage Peinmore House is a great place to stay when visiting the Isle of Skye. It is under 2 miles from Portree and offers a great base to explore what the Isle has to offer. It is quiet and extremely comfortable and very private. The heating was perfect as the weather was quite cold and the bed was super comfortable. The kitchen and washer wash very good and handy too. Just perfect thank you Don.

In serious need of renovation
The property looks like it might have been nice at one point but it’s in serious need of renovation. The kitchen floor has sunken and the laminate is cracked, there’s black mould in the carpet at the back door and the on the wall. The front door handle fell off as soon as we arrived. The heat had not been on in a while and everything, including the sheets were damp and cold. The whole cottage smelled musty and we had to run out and purchase air fresheners. The only good thing was the washing machine.
July 2024 - Scott B. (United States)
Spacious and private cottage.
This was a fantastic location from which to visit Portree and travel around Skye. If you have a vehicle and don't mind a very brief drive into town, you can enjoy the quiet of the countryside during your stay. Well appointed and large living space in addition to bedroom and sizable bathroom with both tub and shower.

Zwei Tage auf der Isle of Skye
Das Objekt hat eine tolle Lage, einen herrlichen Innenhof, die Wohnung ist groß und sauber und sehr gut eingerichtet, aber ein wenig in die Jahre gekommen.
