The apartment is just beautiful and full of extra little touches which gives you that feel of Luxury. It’s really close to the village but nice and quiet down a small side road.

Would Recommend: Yes

So glad you enjoyed your stay and that you got some decent weather before it changed!

21st September 2020:

Piper's Hut is a 'tardis' - goodness knows how so much can be contained within the studio. It has everything. Comfortable, spotless and excellent value. Beautifully furnished to a very high standard. The owners have put a lot of thought into those little extras - milk, bread, tea, etc. so no need to worry about finding a shop for essentials after a long drive.

Parking in front of studio. Easy, 10-minute walk into Portree so no worries about parking there. Owners will advise current covid situation, but at our time of visiting, bookings essential in restaurants and many out-of-town coffee shops, etc. closed so take a picnic. All public places have hand sanitiser stations and felt very safe. Waterproof shoes/boots useful to have with you on Skye.

Would Recommend: Yes

It was lovely meeting and hosting you both. Delighted you enjoyed your time on Skye and at Piper's Hut!

14th September 2020:

Would Recommend: Yes

10th September 2020:

Alan and his wife were both home upon our arrival and allowed an early check in, which was perfect as we had been driving since early in the morning. Alan was really friendly and gave us lots of recommendations from a locals’ perspective - he couldn’t have been more hospitable. The accommodation is very central and only a short walk to the town centre. The little extras like bread, milk and coffee were a wonderful surprise and it’s clear they go above and beyond for their guests. Couldn’t recommend the Piper’s Hut enough, and will be sure to re-book upon a return to the Isle of Skye.

Would Recommend: Yes

The actual space was neat and clean and set up with all the amenities one may need even during covid such as masks and sanitiser. It's a very modern space utilised to utmost effeciency. The space was also centrally located with shops close by.

21st February 2020:

Excellent stylish and well designed accommodation. Well appointed with all that one needs. Everything worked as it should e.g. wi fi, tv, which is important for weather in Skye especially in winter.

Close to the centre of Portree where there are restaurants/pubs/coffee houses. Also the centre of Portree is the transport point if guests do not have a car so the walk is not a great distance. Piper's Hut is an excellent central Skye location to get around the islands many attractions.

Would Recommend: Yes

Fraser, thanks for your kind words! Delighted you enjoyed your stay, especially when the weather was so changeable! Thanks for staying at Piper's Hut and hopefully we'll see you back soon.

15th November 2019:

Good website. Easy booking and friendly, straightforward and informative check-in. The location is convenient and the facilities superb. You have gone the extra mile with unexpected, thoughtful extras to ensure a stay in the Piper's Hut is a very pleasurable experience. My visit coincided with a seasonal drop in temperature so the heating could have been a touch warmer. You do invite anyone to knock if there's a problem so if it had bothered me too much I would have contacted you. Other than that I was very comfortable indeed.

Would Recommend: Yes

Hello Christine, Many thanks for your lovely comments and sincere apologies for the slight chill. As it happens, we have realised the smaller of the two radiators was not working properly so we have now installed a new thermostat to it and also a small fan heater just in case. It has been extremelly cold of late but that is no excuses - we want our guests to be as comfortable as possible! Lovely to meet you and apologies again. Alan

1st November 2019:

Piper’s Hut is the perfect base for exploring the beautiful Isle of Skye. The Hut is modern, stylish and cosy. The large TV is a plus. There is everything you could need for your stay and we really appreciated the extra touch of being left breakfast items. The highlight for us was the incredible shower. It is the best shower I have ever used! The location of Piper’s Hut is perfect, being a 10 minute walk from the centre of Portree.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you so much for your kinds words Katie! We're glad you had a nice time on Skye and at the Piper's Hut (sorry we didn't meet though!).
