23rd September 2024:
Beautifully appointed spacious dwelling for two. Views from the windows are stunning. Kitchen included all the crockery, cutlery, pots and pans and utensils required, and everything was in good working order. Shower worked well, with good hot water flow and a decent shower head. There was heating available but this building is so well insulated that we didn't need to use it (mid September, clear skies so cool at night)
Tips:Amy's Place for coffee and cake is a short stroll away and good value. Boat trip from Ergol to Loch Coruisk in the Cuillins is worth the fee, and we combined this with evening meal at Ergol Bistro and sunset on the beach for a memorable day. Broadford Co-op stocks everything you'll need. The fuel price here is best we found on the island, and cheaper than Fort William so if you're driving a long way south then fill up on Skye first. The Armadale to Mallaig ferry was a simple journey, and the sandy beaches south of Morar are great for a stop-off once back on the mainland (or before you sail over to Skye)
Would Recommend: Yes
Owner Response:Thanks for the great review!

Very comfortable cottage, with everything you need. The owners are friendly and knowledgeable. Stunning mountain views on 2 sides. I had a peaceful and relaxing stay, thank you.
Tips:Despite such a rural location, the Internet worked brilliantly, so I could keep in touch with family via WhatsApp. I highly recommend the wildlife boat trip from Elgol, just 7 miles down the road. And 10 mins walk from the cottage takes you to the stunning Cuillin mountain-ringed Loch Slapin, and if you're there on the right day you can see it whilst eating fabulous cake from Amy's Place tearoom - stunning views and amazing cake - life doesn't get much better!

Really a comfortabel warm and cosy house, spacies and a lot of light inside. Beautiful view, complete kitchen, great shower. We had a very nice time. The road to the house was not easy, for usothe motorbike a little bit difficult. Loose grit, bumps. But that was the only thing that was not nice.
Tips:Great spot for people who like to stay in nature, far away from the Village, and just a few people in the neighbourhood. Very kind owners.

First class communication and service from the hosts of this property. Exceptionally well appointed, clean with a baffling level of attention to detail and welcoming ambience the minute you enter. I spent an amazing stay in July 2023.

I stayed at Bluebell Cottage last week with my 19 year old son. On arrival Jemima & Rupert made us feel exceptionally welcome. The cottage was in a stunning setting with spectacular views and had everything we needed and more. The amazing shower and very comfortable beds were a real bonus. There was great attention to detail and everything had been considered. The biggest accolade is that my son adored it & felt it was just perfect. Quite an accolade from a 19 year old! While Jemima & Rupert gave you complete privacy, it was lovely to talk to them and benefit from their huge knowledge of the area. What lovely people!
Tips:Perfect location for getting away from it. Very close to Bla Bheinn for keen hill walkers. Lovely village with a great cafe (Amy’s) and Mrs Mack’s food van. Only 11 minutes from Broadford for supplies. Close to Elgol peninsula and great views of Cullin Only just over 30 minutes to access the Cullin Ridge

Beautiful location with fantastic views of the Cuillins. A gorgeous cottage with almost everything you could possibly need for a stay. We only noticed two items in the kitchen we missed which was a frying pan and a drying rack for plates and cutlery we didn't want to put in the dishwasher. Wifi signal could've been stronger but we were totally fine with it. There were plenty of games and books to keep us occupied in the evening.
Tips:Lots of walking - get the ferry from Elgol to the heart of the Cuillins and walk the coastal route back. There are plenty of routes near the cottage that you don't have to go further afield :)
Would Recommend: Yes
Owner Response:The frying pans are in the drawer beneath under the oven!

We greatly enjoyed our stay in Bluebell Cottage and appreciated the welcome and help we received from our hosts. The accommodation is attractive and warm with great views to the facing hills. We watched the birds on the feeder,saw a twite rummaging in the moss on the wall and saw 13 transiting geese in the field.
Tips:We mostly ate in, shopping in the local co-op. The location is great, with a dramatic landscape and views at the end of the road beyond the turnoff to the cottage, and we covered most of the Island's principal roads. We were mostly focused on photographing the dramatic scenery, enhanced by rainbows and Jacobs ladders, but also enjoyed a trip off Skye via the world's last operational turntable ferry at Glenelg.

Beautifully clean with welcoming and very friendly owners who love this part of Skye. The cottage is very well appointed with everything you need and we had a lovely time enjoying this area. Lots of info about local walks etc and somewhere we will return to one day. Thanks especially to Jemima for the delicious scones and jam and to Rupert for the knock on the door one evening to say 'Come quickly, golden eagles flying overhead'.

Wonderful location and very helpful service in making arrangements. Warm and cosy place with spectacular views and friendly neighbours. One thought: A microwave would have proved helpful (and the WiFi signal was not especially good)
Tips:The local walks (in the Cuillin especially) are amazing. We saw seals in the Loch and deer in the hills along with many varieties of birds and plants. However, the ground can be boggy and it is often wet

A great little hideaway cottage in a central location for exploring. A no fuss booking system and good communication. With friendly neighbours just in case of any unforeseen circumstances.
Tips:A great location for exploring whether it be walking, mountaineering, mountain biking, photography, sea kayaking or anything else; it is all within walking distance from the front door or between a 5 to 60 minute drive to any point on the island. Be prepared for 4 seasons in one day which is not a problem, just bring the right clothes. Only went to the fish and chip shop in Broadford as I brought all my provisions for the week. I do believe that 'the Oyster Shed' a farm shop and takeaway is the place to go for seafood lovers.
Would Recommend: Yes

Beautiful location. Cottage is well built and comfortable. Due to the remote location some facilties are not available such as mobile phone. It does have wi fi albeit slow but we enjoyed what was available, the scenery, walks, good cafes and restaurants. If the weather was bad the cottage was provided with books and games. We were sorry to leave and would not hesitate to go back.
Tips:The Blue Shed café was very good with lots of info about wild life. Our favourite was the tiny shop and café at Elgol, a great welcome and tasty soup.Lots of locally made souvenirs. Also worthy of mention, Café sia at Broadford and the little café at Armadale Ferry terminal. We were a bit disappointed in Fairy Pools. We came across a stream with stepping stones which were under water. Being over 70 I decided not to attempt it. Most people coped so if you are agile it would be fine but there were younger people than us who decided not to cross. Loads of walking for all abilities. The local community are looking for funds to improve this attraction.

Lovely cottage, beautiful location, near enough to the Cuillins to get to them easily but also out of the way of the busier spots.
Tips:5 minutes drive through Torrin towards Elgol takes you to Kilmarie, the start of a lovely walk to the isolated bay of Camasunary, and on to Loch Coruisk - takes 5-6 hours but it's worth it! There's another great circular walk south of Torrin to the deserted villages of Suisnish and Boreraig. The Blue Cafe in Torrin is very friendly. And, further afield, the Oyster Shed in Carbost has great fresh seafood, and a trip on the Raasay ferry from Sconser is worth it - Raasay is a really beautiful island and well worth a few hours exploring. The walk from Arnish to Fladday, following the coastal path, is stunning.

Lovely space with everything we needed. Great location for hiking from with lovely views from the cottage. Not too far from the shops and amenities in Broadford. It's very cosy and we were plenty warm enough, a perfect place for quiet and relaxing evenings. Loved the decor and the artwork on the walls and the shower was good.
Tips:We mostly made use of the self catering facilities but we visited the chip shop in Broadford a couple of times and it was very nice. The loch just down the road from the cottage has lovely views and would be a lovely picnic or swimming spot in the summer!

We had a brilliant stay at the Blue Bell cottage. The cottage itself is very clean and we were treated to home made scones and jam by Jemima. Waking up to the amazing views of the cullin mountains has been a wonderful experience for us. A 5 minute walk down the road takes you to a lake (cannot remember the name.) The scenary anywhere in the isle of skye is stunning.There are plenty of walking trails in the area. The cottage itself is very well furnished and although there is no mobile phone reception, the wifi / broadband seemed to work okay. There were plenty of utensils and all the cleaning detergents were provided. All in all we enjoyed the stay at the cottage.
Tips:Weather is a bit temperamental and you cannot rely on the forecasts. We visited the Eilean Donan castle. The western coastal trail was fabulous and we would definitley recommend a visit to cafe Bealach on the western coastal trail. We also travelled upto Dunnetts Head; a 4 hour drive from Torrin. The walks upto the fairy pools and the Old man of storr were great.

Bluebell Cottage was exactly what we were looking for - a cosy cottage with good facilities and great views. All of this and more meant we had a wonderful trip. We loved the fact there was no TV, and (when we weren't enjoying the outdoors) spent our time reading, talking, listening to music, cooking etc etc. A real break away from it all.
Tips:We went to Skye with the idea of climbing a multi-pitch route on the Black Cuillin and swimming in the Fairy Pools. We did neither, and we're so pleased! The mountains were covered in snow (In late April!), so no rock climbing for us. And the owners of the Blue Shed Cafe told us about some other pools that are less well known but just as good as those that attract the tourists having been featured in wild swimming books. We ended up doing a snowy ridge walk on the Red Cuillin and seeing two golden eagles within a few metres of us! We walked to an abandoned village in a blizzard. And we dipped a toe in the 'locals' pools! Our advice... go prepared to do whatever Skye will allow you to do and embrace it. It's a spectacular adventure playground, so just do what suits you and enjoy!

Lovely place. Absolutely no criticisms at all. Warm and cosy and comfortable. Beautiful views. So peaceful. Well placed to visit many of good places to visit. The Dutch couple who were house sitting were brilliant, helpful and friendly.
Tips:Must do. Visit to Loch Coruisk from Elgol. Definitely stay longer than the shorter 1.5 stay time or walk out if you are fit enough. Visit Talisker distillery, and the pub just up the road (can't remember the name), Talisker bay, the coral beaches above Dunvegan, the chippy at Broadford, and go on as many walks up the hills as possible.

The cottage is gorgeous, very clean and well equipped. Very, very cozy. We had some difficulty in leaving the cottage to go outdoors due to its confort and magical views from the wide windows. The mountains, the colored flowers and the bunnies!!! So cool! The isle is fantastic, amazing views and spectacular scenarium. We really enjoyed it! Hope to be back one day. The owners are very friendly and helpful.
Tips:There is a supermarket about 15 minutes by car from the cottage in Broadford. We used to buy our food there and prepare at the cottage, which is fully equiped. We couldnt find interesting places to eat nearby, most of them were pub like places. The internet works perfectly in the cottage, no telephone signal. The road to the cottage is one way with passing places, I recommend to drive slow and pay attention, specially if you are not used to drive in the left side of the road. (We are Brazilians). Everything worked perfectly! We wish we could have a place like this to go every weekend. Its so relaxing...

Excellent hosts. Very helpful and friendly but also tactfully non-intrusive! Liked the cottage decor, including Rupert's paintings. Fantastic views from the large windows. Perfect for the inevitable rainy days on Skye. Cottage very well-equipped and comfortable. Excellent shower : strong water pressure and big enough for the most substantial user! Excellent wi-fi connection. Cottage is very quiet but does not feel too isolated as is part of a hamlet and only 7 miles from Broadford.
Tips:Great location for exploring the Elgol peninsula especially. The walk from Elgol to Camasunary is spectacular. Also we very much enjoyed the walk which passes through the clearance settlements of Boreraig and Suisnish. (There are some v useful guides to local walks in the cottage.) We didn't go out at night during our 2 week stay as post days of vigorous walking and scrambling it was great to hole up in Bluebell Cottage. Excellent cooking facilities so a pleasure to eat at 'home' looking out at the Red Cuillins.
