Its all about the name "The View"
The name says it all, what a view. The View is centrally located and allows you to see the other locations on the isle. The house is in an isolated area but the are two restaurants within a short distance. There is a grocery store within a 10 minute ride. Of the 6 different places we stated in Scotland over our 14 day trip, we loved this one the best.

First class accommodation
Well, what can we say about The View? There aren’t enough superlatives to describe it! The whole house is so beautifully done, with everything you could possibly need. The house is well named as the panoramic views from the massive windows are incredible. We were privileged to share this lovely place with ‘Martin’ the pine marten who lives nearby. If the property was a car it would be a Rolls Royce . Can’t wait to go back!

Absolutely Beautiful
This property was just fantastic: a hidden gem on the coast of the Isle of Skye, with breathtaking views and spacious, beautifully furnished rooms. Watching the sun go down next to the log fire at the end of each day - unbeatable. I really can’t recommend this place enough. It made our stay in Skye extremely special.

The View- Spectacular by Sound of Sleat
My husband spent childhood summers on the Sound of Sleat. He had always talked about how magical it was. We named one of our twins Skye, after the most beautiful place on earth. We came for their 21st Birthday. We all were blown away by the view from the property. From the house, wherever you look out of a window you see magnificent mountains and sea. It changes daily with the weather. The house is conveniently located not to far from food stores. The eat in kitchen is gourmet and we didn’t want to eat out. Everything we needed to cook in was there. The house is beautifully appointed- the beds and pillows we so very comfortable. The house is well kept and immaculately serviced. The owner was very Responsive and answered any questions. If they ever want to sell it we would love to own it. I felt I was home. Thanks so much.

The View - What a relaxing place
Overview: Such a beautiful place. You can calm down and enjoy the View - or even better - your life. It is located a little bit off the track of the typical skye tourist routes, but everything on skye is still reachable and grocery shopping and petrol station is in the next town. House: it is really comfy and nicely decorated. The only issue I had were some real fur carpets which had collected quite an amount of lint and long dark hair when I tried to remove them. This is why we gave 4 stars instead of 5 for cleanliness. Might be normal, but I am not a fur expert and actually not a fan, but this is my taste and not everyone’s. The rest was very tidy and clean, just that you know. Bens Videos “how to use…” also are a great help. Special: we had an issue with the outside light and one of the martens broke the bird feeding station, and I had to contact Ben. He was organizing help immediately and was very friendly. So 100% thumbs up. Thanks a lot, Ben, you were the best host. Summary: we hope to be back at some stage. And decided to buy a house with sea view - somehow, somewhere at some stage ;)
