Brogaig Cottages

25th March 2024:

Kathy and Charlie were very welcoming hosts. Quraing cottage is well equipped especially in the kitchen and very comfortable for my wife and myself. We plan to return.

Local stores are well stocked and the beach is but a short walk

Would Recommend: Yes

Many thanks for the kind comments. It was lovely to meet you and we wish you well in your new adventure! We look forward to seeing you again.

24th February 2024:

Very clean and modern cottage with all mod cons. Great views out across Staffin Bay. Good location for exploring Skye.

Close by are the Quiraing and the Old Man of Storr both of which have good walks. Follow the sign to Staffin Slipway to see dinosaur footprints on the beach. A well stocked brewery shop in Uig. The Flodigarry Hotel has a good restaurant and if you want to go further afield there's the Three Chimney's on the road to Glendale and the Stein Inn near Waternish. The Talisker Distillery at Carbostis worth a visit.

Would Recommend: Yes

26th November 2023:

Had an amazing holiday made perfect by our stay in Storr cottage. It was impeccably clean, with everything we needed and some lovely extra touches. The views were amazing and watching the goldfinch feeding outside was an added bonus

Would Recommend: Yes

Many thanks for the lovely comments and for leaving the cottage so clean and tidy. We would be delighted to have you back to stay.

16th July 2023:

You have tried the rest now try the best . You needed for nothing. A lot of thought had been put into what you needed in this cottage. It was spotlessly clean and lovely and warm. The view from the front is lovely could sit and look at it all day. Thankyou for a lovely stay we hope to be back soon.

Beware of potholes as there is plenty of them on the roads. But don’t be put off by them the scenery is breath taking.

Would Recommend: Yes

Many thanks for your kind comments. We are very pleased you enjoyed your stay and appreciate you leaving the cottage so clean and tidy. We would be delighted to have you back to stay.

18th June 2023:

Everything was great. Perhaps some pasta bowls would be useful but generally we had everthing we needed.

Would Recommend: Yes

14th June 2023:

I was absolutely delighted on arrival at the cottage, it was had a lovely homely atmosphere. The hosts really had thought of everything from cling film for sandwiches to salt/pepper and oils for cooking. These little things are often overlooked in holiday accommodation but to see these little things they really made the difference to our stay. In terms of location, we found it good for different locations towards the top of the island. It was slightly further out for central areas like Portree but it was a lovely drive along the coast so it wouldn’t put us off staying here again. Thank you again for a lovely stay, we look forward to coming back.

Restaurants to visit: Portree Hotel Antlers Restaurant, The Stein Inn and the Uig Hotel.

Would Recommend: Yes

Many thanks for your lovely review. We're delighted you enjoyed your stay and appreciate your comments. We would be very pleased to have you return to stay.

4th June 2023:

Cottage was fantastic, would definitely stay again.

Fairy Pools, The Storr and Quiraing are all very busy, arrive early to avoid the worst of the crowds, but even when busy the magical landscape is but still worth it. Ferry trip and cycling on Raasay was a welcome break from busy tourist areas.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your kind review. We're pleased you enjoyed your stay in the cottage and would be delighted to welcome you back.

12th May 2023:

Excellent holiday, everything you need and more. Comfy, clean and thoroughly enjoyable stay.

Skye is Skye, wild lovely and magical. Whilst there's a small store down down the road, for a bigger shop or restaurants it's Portree. Explore and enjoy, be prepared to drive on challenging roads. Get a good walking guide and enjoy yourself

Would Recommend: Yes

15th April 2023:

Unbelievable location and beautiful cottage. Couldn't recommend any more!

Would Recommend: Yes

17th November 2022:

This cottage is stunning, location overlooking Staffin Bay was awesome, the sunrises even in November amazing. Cottage was lovely and warm, had everything you needed, the most well equipped kitchen, could have cooked Xmas dinner! Place is modern & cozy, underfloor heating, excellent wifi, smart TV, husband enjoyed the log burner and the views from the massive windows are amazing. Very quiet, just the sea could be heard and no street lights so plenty of star gazing

In Staffin we enjoyed Columba1400 cafe, open Mon to Fri 9am till 4pm, ideal for a morning coffee and cake, we enjoyed the soup and toastie and celebrated our last day with afternoon tea that we booked. Highly recommend Three Chimney’s if your a foodie, expensive was £270 for 2 but worth it for a celebration. Driving north of Staffin the views are breathtaking, the road behind cottage up to the Quaing and down to Uig is excellent and smooth. Fairy Pools well worth a visit & walk and then pub lunch at The Inn - we researched in advance using Trip Advisor what was around for trips out and you need to book in advance what ever the time of year for a good 80% of places.

Would Recommend: Yes

Many thanks for your kind comments, they are very much appreciated. It was lovely to meet you both and I hope to see you return in the future. With best wishes, Kathy

6th September 2022:

We loved our time at the cottage. The location is perfect for exploring and has an amazing view. The owner has taken a lot of thought and care into designing and equipping the cottage with everything you would need for your stay. It has been finished to a very high standard. We definitely plan on returning at some point in the future.

Kathy was contactable if you needed help and responded very quickly. The house was spotless and well maintained. The kitchen was well equipped - and we do like to cook.

The nearest supermarket is 30mins drive so plan your shopping! Mini-market about a mile away in Staffin. Fresh langoustines from vending machine (SkyeSeafood on Facebook). Walking is excellent straight from the house. Eating out - recommend Uig Hotel (8-9miles by car). Columba 1400 is more local if it's open.

Would Recommend: Yes

Many thanks for your kind comments and I am glad you enjoyed your stay. We would be delighted to have you return in the future.

Would Recommend: Yes

26th June 2022:

Quirang was a delightful place to stay. It was spotlessly clean, very comfortable, extremely well equipped. It would be difficult to find a better holiday home for 2 people. We overlooked a beautiful little bay and could hear the sea from the house. We had a lovely view of the Trotternish Ridge from another window. All on one level with parking by house. Would definately recommend to others. Scenery nearby is beautiful.

Local community shop is very useful. We enjoyed a boat trip to Loch Coruisk with time to walk there. Museum of Highland Life was nearby and Beach at Staffin with dinosaur footprints and small local museum. Most of all we enjoyed exploring smaller roads through wonderful scenery, stopping to walk when we could. Enjoyed Isle of Raasay with beautiful coastal walks with wildflowers and Raasay House community cafe with tea outside overlooking the sea. Took a wildlfe day out too which was excelent

Would Recommend: Yes

We're delighted you enjoyed your stay and very much appreciate your kind comments. We would be pleased to see you return to Quiraing Cottage in the future.

24th April 2022:

An excellent cottage in an interesting area of Skye. Walk to beach from cottage short but worth it.

Columba 1400 great staff and a good lunch after long walk. Staffin stores have just about everything and the welcome at Mackenzies store is what village life is all about. Dunvegan Castle and Gardens an oasis of colour even early Spring.

Would Recommend: Yes

Many thanks for the kind comments. I'm delighted you enjoyed your stay.

10th April 2022:

This was my third visit to these lovely cottages. They are both in a beautiful setting,with fantastic views. I hope to return again and again.

Many interesting roads to adventure out on.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks for the kind review Sharon and we do hope you return and again and again. Safe travels and stay well.

20th January 2022:

Wonderful cosy cottage with fantastic views. First class appliances and everything provided for a lovely relaxing holiday, we didn't want to leave.

There is a small Mace well stocked with basics a few mins drive from the cottage.There is the Hundry Gull take-away on a Fri and Sat night selling burgers etc, worth a try.

Would Recommend: Yes

Your kind review is much appreciated and we hope to see you back again.

14th November 2021:

A fantastic cottage with wonderful views.

Two local walks to do - one to find the dinosaur footprints at An Corran beach and another to The Quiraing. Both possible from the cottage with transort.

Would Recommend: Yes

Your kind review is appreciated, thanks.

12th November 2021:

Quirang is a very well appointed, warm and comfortable cottage with wonderful, ever-changing views across Staffin Bay. On a clear night the outside bench is a perfect place to sit and view the stars with a glass of wine or a beer. We found the underfloor heating makes the air a little dry for our taste but the cottage is always warm and welcoming. A pair of beer glasses would complete the glassware for a lager drinker like me.

Most things shut at the end of October and this year the affects of Covid were still apparent but Pam and I would recommend, as special during our week, lunches at the Ardvassar and Uig Hotels, a boat trip from Portree, walks to Neist Point Lighthouse, around the Scorrybreac Circuit, Portree, and around Glenbrittle, and a day walking on Raasay.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for the kind comments. Should you return lager glasses will be provided!

19th September 2021:

Always a very prompt reply to any queries before and during visit. If any problems were to have cropped up we felt confident that they would have been dealt with quickly. We felt very safe with the owners attention to scrupulously following COVID guidelines, thank you.

We would be very happy to stay at this property again if we were to return to Staffin. Excellent variety of walks for the novice and experienced hiker. The hungry gull provided us with an excellent takeaway of fish and chips, especially as they catered for gluten free.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for the very kind comments. We would be delighted to welcome you back to stay.

12th September 2021:

Fabulous cottage. Immaculately clean and well presented. Well equipped kitchen. Stunning views

25-30 minute drive to Portree for variety of shops and restaurants. Close to Old man of Storr and Quirraing for walking. Also lovely walk at Rubha Hunish just 10 minutes away

Would Recommend: Yes

Your kind comments are much appreciated, thank you.

29th August 2021:

Fantastic stay in a lovely little cottage by the sea. Cannot fault it!

Fairy pools, kilt rock/melt falls, staffin beach, fairy glen, Portree (local chip shop down by the slipway is a must)

Would Recommend: Yes

We appreciate your kind comments, thank you.

23rd August 2021:

Fabulous location great hosts standard of accommodation one of the best we have ever stayed at

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your kind comments, much appreciated.

7th August 2021:

Fantastic stay. The cottage was lovely and clean and Kathy had thought of everything that might be needed. Even down to log burner already being filled and a bottle of Prosecco in the fridge for arrival. Lovely setting and shame we were only there for a week.

The main tip for travellers is to book this place! For activities, be flexible with plans. The varied weather in general on the island can mean certain activities can’t be done to get the full effect. Eg some of the walks need to be mist free to be able to see the views, so best to wait/take the opportunity when the time arises and have contingency plans.

Would Recommend: Yes

Delighted you enjoyed your stay and thank you for the lovely review.

10th July 2021:

Beautiful, comfortable and well maintained accommodation, and could not fault in any way. Cleanliness to a high standard and every detail thought through well. Did not want for anything during our stay. Stunning views from picture windows was icing on the cake.

Plenty to do and see over the island if planned well, so that you can visit some beautiful parts. Stunning and beautiful scenes, and a hill walkers paradise.Nearest town for variety of restaurants is Portree but they do require to be planned to ensure booking due to current Covid guidance.

Would Recommend: Yes

Your kind review is much appreciated, thank you.

14th June 2021:

Every aspect of our booking and our stay was excellent. Thank you Kathy for also arranging a week of sunshine!

Would Recommend: Yes

Delighted you enjoyed your stay and thank you for the kind review.

16th May 2021:

Lovely spacious property with modern decor, overlooking Staffin Bay. Immaculately presented and with high attention to Covid prevention at present.

Great base for exploring the Trotternish area. Old Man of Storr, Dinosaur fossil footprints. Lots of stunning viewpoints within two or three miles and along the road to Portree. Good food at Columba 1400 but only available as takeaway whilst restrictions apply. Museum of Island Life and the Fossil Museum only a short distance away but these were closed during our visit due to covid measures.

Would Recommend: Yes

Delighted you enjoyed your stay and thank you for your kind comments.

14th November 2020:

We had a great stay at Brogaig cottages. It was the perfect escape. The cottage is well equipped and was very comfortable.

We had an absolutely lovely stay. Our cottage was comfortable and cosy, impeccably kept, immaculately decorated and extremely well appointed. We really enjoyed evenings by the log fire and watching the changing weather across the beautiful landscape. The location was perfect for a great experience of Skye and we would highly recommend this cottage to everyone. Thank you very much!

As we stayed in early February, many restaurants were closed. But, we still managed to enjoy some lovely food at Columba 1400, The Stein Inn and The Granary in Portree. A circular walk from the cottage to the Quiraings and back was our favourite hike.

Very friendly helpful owners who are more than happy to help with any problems. The cottage is well equipped, warm and comfortable with a great view of Staffin Island and the Quiraing, it is also easy to get too off the A855 from Portree

Restaurants - can recommend the Lower Deck in Portree, also the cafe at Columba 1400 is worth a visit. Neist Point is well worth the effort to walk down to, also the Coral Beach at Dunvegan. More locally can also recommend walking from the Cottage to the Quiraing the views are superb, also enjoyed watching the seals at Staffin slipway

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you Rachel & Simon, your lovely review is very much appreciated. It was a pleasure to have you stay and we would love to see you back again.

24th September 2019:

Super cottage. Location 16 miles north of Portree, so away from a town, which suited us. There’s a shop in the village which is useful. The cottage was wonderful, high spec appliances and comfortable sofa and bed. Lovely shower room. A delight to stay in even when the weather is unkind. The picture windows are brilliant with views over the bay. We would happily return to this cottage if we come back to Skye.

Would Recommend: Yes

This is the third time we've stayed in these holiday homes on our regular visits to Skye. Both cottages are superbly situated with unobstructed views of Staffin's beach and bay, furnished to the highest degree with quality Neff appliances, a luxury kitchen, comfy super king-size bed and excellent furnishings. Kathy is also the perfect host. Highly recommended.

Marmalade in Portree is superb.

We had a fantastic week in Storr Cottage, despite some very dramatic weather! The cottage is very comfortable, warm and well equipped with everything you need. The location is perfect and we had a great time exploring the area. We also spent many hours gazing out of the picture windows and just admiring the stunning views!

Staffin Museum is well worth a visit, as is the Skye Blue Gallery. There is just so much to see and do on Skye it makes for a great destination!

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your kind comments. Delighted you enjoyed your stay even though the weather was quite extreme. Good to know you were comfortable indoors.

Would Recommend: Yes

Many thanks for your kind comments and so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us.

20th May 2018:

Highly recommended! Cottage extremely well equipped, with everything to the highest standard. Excellent location, with many great walks on the doorstep. To cap it all we had beautiful weather!

Skye Pies just down the road is excellent value, and a good selection of supplies is available at the local shop. Don't forget your camera to capture the splendid local scenery and binoculars to watch the wildlife thereabouts. Dunvagen is well worth a trip to look round the castle and its gardens.

Would Recommend: Yes

Glad you enjoyed your stay with us and that even the weather was good for your break. Thanks for your kind comments.
