This semi-detached, single-storey property sits in the popular town of Portree, just a short distance from a range of establishments, on the scenic Isle of Skye. Approached by a single track, Pebble Cottage is a great place to call home for a family of six looking to explore this part of Northern Scotland. Head inside and discover the kitchen, well-equipped with all the mod cons required for home-cooking, whilst the dining area is perfect for hosting mealtimes as a group. After dinner, let the dishwasher do the cleaning up and relax in the lounge, curling up beside the woodburning stove and thinking where next to explore. French doors lead out to the decked area, boasting a covered furniture set that is sure to be appreciated in the summer months. With two ground-floor king-size bedrooms, Pebble Cottage offers guests pleasant rooms to unwind in, with minimal décor and built-in storage space, whilst the snug houses a sofa bed for an additional guest. Set in the vibrant centre of Portree, Skye’s main town and a lively hub of shops, cafés and restaurants, this property offers the perfect base for exploring the island while enjoying the charm of an iconic harbour setting. Explore the rest of the town and expect to find many restaurants, pubs and shops worth browsing, plus a selection of activities for all ages, ranging from sea kayaking for those adventurous ones, to evening performances at the Aros Centre. Wander around Portree Harbour – an iconic spot lined with colourful buildings, fishing boats and pleasure craft – as you tuck into a fresh portion of fish and chips, taking in the idyllic scenery and colourful townscape. Avid walkers can take to the Quiraing, Old Man of Storr and Lealt Falls, all offering dramatic landscapes and unforgettable hiking experiences, whilst Sligachan boasts the stunning Sligachan Waterfalls and Red Cullen viewpoint. Don’t miss The Lump, a historic viewpoint with panoramic harbour and bay vistas, or the Scorrybreac Circuit, a scenic coastal trail through woodland and along the shoreline. For local tips and activity planning, the Portree VisitScotland iCentre is a great resource. Dining options are plentiful, from Michelin-rated Scorrybreac and harbour-side favourite Sea Breezes to modern Scottish dishes at Dulse & Brose and classic fish and chips at The Chippy. For something different, try Gasta’s artisan pizza with a Skye twist, Birch for brunch and coffee, or MacKenzies Bakery overlooking Somerled Square. Cuchullin Restaurant serves authentic local cuisine, while Edinbane Lodge offers an innovative destination dining experience just a short drive away.
