The Barn, Culnacnoc, Portree, Skye

The Barn is a great place to stay if you are looking to have a spacious quiet location.
The views are spectacular, on a clear day you can see across to the mainland and the mountains there. There is a path down to the shoreline at the end of the track which is very popular with tourists and a known beauty spot on the Island.
The Barn it's self is fully equipped. The kitchen has a dishwasher, fridge freezer, oven and hob wooden work surfaces and feels homely.
A great place for entertaining and games or for just relaxing.
There are 2 separate bathrooms so no cuing.
There is a working fire place for cosying up in the winter.
The views from the bedrooms fill you with peace. Here the world is a bit more raw, a bit more exciting and exposed.

A perfect cottage in Skye

This cottage stay was a family favorite for sure! It is private, with incredible views and walks right out the back door. The cottage itself is well-stocked and beautifully decorated -- we loved every bit of our stay at The Barn. If we ever make it back to Skye, we will definitely stay there again!

Barn at Culnacnoc

Loved this cottage for my family of 5. Clean, comfortable and well located for visiting Skye. Loved the home down to Brothers Point from the front door. Would highly recommend.

Stunning retreat

We can’t say enough good things about Cat, Kel and their crew. They helped us make arrangements beyond just lodging and really connected us to the communities on Skye. The Barn is a beautiful modern adaptation of a historic structure and the setting and trail location are spectacular.

Lovely, secluded property

Lovely property, well maintained, very clean and well kept. We stayed when the weather was quite rainy and extra blustery, so the only small challenge was navigating our car down the single track ruts to the property (standing water hid the potholes!) It is extremely secluded which we loved.

Brilliant stay

I’ve been coming to Skye for 15 years and have stayed all over the island. The cottage is probably situated in one of the nicest spots. The cottage was spotless and felt like home throughout our weeks stay. We hope to come back and stay again! Thank you for having us.

Awesome location

Our stay at The Barn was magical. The views were spectacular and the stars at night were amazing. The only downside was that we only stayed 3 nights and could’ve stayed a week. Very peaceful stay, well equipped accommodation, comfortable beds and a kitchen with all the modern conveniences. 5+ stars

This Skye property was one of my favorite VRBOs of all time. We explored Skye during the day and came home to the most cozy house with beautiful views in every direction. It was amazing!
