Lovely old building

Fantastic property with lots of character. Was easy to access with key in a little lockbox, for which we were sent the code. Masses of space, comfy beds and sofas. Well equipped kitchen. Amazing views. We had sheep in the garden one morning.Only issue was as it's an older property there were very few electrical sockets, and those that were there were already filled with electric heater plugs.

Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025

Perfect stay at the old schoolhouse

We had a perfect stay at the old schoolhouse. Everything we need was there. Good equipped cottage.The only thing I can think of is the shower. I take only cold showers and the shower would not stay cold and the water pressure was very low for cold water. Only a small amount of water came out. I would definitely recommend the old school as nice place to stay on Skye. Florian Gardner from the Netherlands
