“Super location for a base to explore Skye. There is a supermarket next door which is very handy. Skye requires a lot of driving between destinations and so being on the mainland really didn’t make much of a difference so don’t let that put anyone...”

Comfy 2 bedroom apartment in an ideal location for exploring Skye, Plockton and Lochalsh with your family and friends.
Yay, you're coming to Kyle! I've lived and worked here for the most part of my life and I'm happy to help with local knowledge if I can. I live in Kyle itself with my three children and run a small cleaning business so if the flat is not spotless someone is getting fired! Jokes, all feedback is welcomed.
The flat has some spectacular walks on its door step that will delight you with breath taking views and a hotel serving meals and drinks a stones throw from the front door. There is also a handy shop just round the corner for all your essentials. It is central for exploring the local hot spots by car, the Skye bridge/Kyle is four miles west of the flat and Dornie, with the famous Clachan Bar, is 5 miles to the east where you will also find that famous castle from the TV adverts and every B and B wall in the highlands -Eilean Donan, also well worth a visit. Aprox 6 miles to the north is the very picturesque village of Plockton which is not to be over looked with its people, prawns and palm trees!
