Half Of 2

Half of 2 opens into a ground-floor living space where the kitchen, dining area and sitting room flow together, with a woodburner warming the heart of the home. The main bedroom has a king bed and ensuite; upstairs, the second bedroom holds two double beds. You get a second full bathroom too, so two people needn't queue. Throughout, bed linen, towels, wifi and heating are provided. The woodburner's initial fuel is covered, and on-site parking takes two vehicles.

The garden has decking where you can sit with morning coffee and watch the wildlife. Garden furniture is in place. One well-behaved dog stays free. Paths and steps in the garden are uneven underfoot. Smoking is not permitted inside.

The cottage sits on the Isle of Skye in the Torrin area, surrounded by the landscape that draws people to this part of Highland. It suits those who want a base to explore the island without being in a busy settlement, and couples or small families after genuine quietness rather than a social hub.
