Lochsie Cottage

The location is great, but only if you have a car. It is not walkable to Portree. The size of the rooms is nice. They left us a bottle of wine. The space was clean.

I have never written a poor review, but here are the issues we found that should be fixed. 1. The fan in the bathroom doesn't work. The plaster tape is peeling from moisture. 2. The light bulb above the bathroom sink needs changed. I called manager the 1st night and left the door to the cottage unlocked per her request for a full day. It was never replaced for the 4 days we were there making it difficult to apply makeup and shave. She had scoffed at the idea of coming to replace it, but said she would. 3. We couldn't get the towel rack to work. Asked manager to check on that, too. 4. The bathroom is very large, but the sink has no counter space and the shower is unnecessarily small (even for a small woman). There is a chair in the corner next to the sink where a small corner shelf could improved the situation. I put my toiletries above the toilet in the opposite corner of the room, fearing I might damage the chair upholstery if I placed liquids on it. This was inconvenient as I had to keep walking across the rather large room and reaching behind the toilet. 5. Only 1-1/2 rolls of toilet paper were left for 2 adults for 4 days. We bought our own as manager had never shown up for the above. 6. We couldn't find any appliance information. This would be especially good for the washer/dryer combination unit. 7. The kitchen floor has cracked and buckled so that we stubbed our toes frequently. 8. There is a dark spot in one corner of the living room that looks like mold to us. 9. It would be nice to have a recycle bin in the kitchen. 10. The sofa is getting rather soft making sitting on it uncomfortable. 11. The seal around the front door needs repair as you can see light (and feel wind) coming through around the door lock. June was cold. Overall, the cottage needs a bit of money spent on it in order to be a good value for the money.

Beautifully equipped self catering facility. Short 10 minute drive from Portree.

No working towel rail . Only 4 leftover coat hangers in bedroom wardrobe. Heating system control options limited to on (baking), or off (cold)

Location was minutes from Portree and felt more rural than staying in town. Hosts were exceptional and everything was perfect. You can walk the grounds and see the Old Man of Storr from the road, and have mountain views at the doorway. Excellent location, excellent hosts, above and beyond!

Well equipped, spacious, clean and warm!

Beautiful little cottage, close to Portree. A very comfy bed, large bathroom, full-stocked kitchen and cosy lounge. Lots of little details to make your stay lovely. Thank you!

The only thing would be the pot-holes in the drive - be careful as they are vicious!
