Welcome to Katie's cottage!

Katie's cottage was built around 1915 by a resident of the community of Holmisdale, part of the township of Glendale. The price in that day for a two bed Skye croft house was £15 and three hogs. And the brick layer would not get paid if he did not complete a full row of stones in one day. Times have indeed changed.

Katie's cottage is completely renovated and installed with all moderns conveniences, all tastefully integrated with the traditional features of the croft house: the fire place with multi fuel stove, the stone walls and the beautiful woodwork to name a few.

Downstairs on your left you will find an open plan living area. On your right there's an open kitchen and dining table. in the back extension there's a spacious bathroom with shower, wash basin and toilet. An open staircase gives access to the second floor with two bedrooms. You can check the accommodation in full detail here.

Outside you will find a spacious garden with secluded spots to enjoy the views over the glen. There's ample off road parking space.

Katie's cottage is situated in an elevated position overlooking the Glendale glen. From the garden you can see the glen unfolding in an amazing pallet of shades of green. To the south you will have majestic views of MacLeod's Tables with the Hamara river meandering through the glen.

The cottage is a paradise for bird watchers: golden eagles, buzzards and even sea eagles are among the regular visitors to the glen. Most of them can be seen from the garden. And if you're into a hike, just follow the river upwards to the MacLeod's Tables to spot the golden eagles more up close.

Katie's cottage is a dog-friendly holiday cottage. You can bring along up to two well behaved dogs on your holiday. We're confident your dog will enjoy Skye as much as you do!
