"Many people have already described how wonderful this place is, I can only confirm this."
The environment is impressive (lots of wild rabbits and sheep right next to the house), the view from the house. The house is very well equipped, we loved being there.
They drew our attention to the potholes, but we managed to get into one in the rain and got a flat tire before our arrival in the middle of the night, literally in the middle of nowhere, 20 minutes from the house on a one-lane road (5 km from UIG). I asked Catriona for help, she was very kind and helpful, she asked a friend to come pick up my family and take them to the accommodation late at night while I arranged the car service.
So be careful on the one-lane roads, there are huge potholes (all single-lane roads on the island).
The trip to Skye was a great experience for us, even though we went in October. If we ever return, we would choose Ridge End Cottage again without a second thought, even though it is really a very remote part of the island.
Thank you so much for taking time to give us your lovely feedback. We are delighted your stay was not ruined by that bad start in such awful weather.
We are delighted to hear you would choose Ridge End if you were to return.

"We loved staying at this cottage!"
It had everything we needed and we really enjoyed the location. 2 things that could be improved…
1- most of the dishes in the cabinets were filthy and required us to hand wash before using them. The dishwasher did not seem to work well.
2- the double bed downstairs is on a slant. I’m not sure if there is something bent or broken but this caused 2 terrible nights sleep for my grandparents staying in that room.
All in all, this cottage is so welcoming and a lovely place to stay at for your holiday!
Thankyou for your valuable feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your stay.
I did attempt to make contact with you prior to and during your stay but the details provided were incorrect unfortunately.

"What can I say?"
Catriona and Peter and wonderful hosts, their attention to detail: the comfort of the croft, the cleanliness, all the things needed to make a wonderful stay are all there and their communication with us was super; from informing us about the key safe to enter to updating us on the actual day of arrival that it would be ready slightly earlier if we wished. Loved the mezzanine bedroom, watching the stars and then the snow fall was incredible. We also watched golden eagles hovering over the hills from there and rabbits aplenty digging in the snow, fabulous. To see the sunrise coming up over the hilltops is magical, especially as we are both keen photographers, to capture that was really special. The sofas are extremely comfy and we made good use of them as we had a lot of snow during our stay this January! Catriona checked on us several times to ask if we were okay or needed anything. Both Peter and Catriona arrived with salt to clear the path and extra logs as there was a possibility the power could go off. Nothing was too much for them. Would we recommend and return - without a doubt! Can't wait.

"We have just returned from Ridge End Cottage after a fantastic trip to the Isle of Skye."
The cottage is located right at the top of the Totternish peninsula and about as far North as you can possibly go on Skye without tripping into the Atlantic and swimming over to the Outer Hebrides (disclaimer - I do not recommend the swimming or the tripping!) The cottage is therefore quite isolated but this just adds to its magic. From the cottage, there are 360-degree panoramic views which constantly change throughout the day depending on the weather, but even standing and washing the dishes is an experience, never before have I rushed to wash the dishes! The cottage offers basically everything you require for your trip and Catriona and Peter are fantastic hosts and live locally so can respond quickly to requests that you may have. There is a choice of three bedrooms and one has fantastic views over the end of the Totternish Ridge and you can sit up in bed and watch eagles and buzzards majestically flying on the thermals, sometimes you can even hear them call to each other, that is an experience that you cannot miss. The cottage's location is reasonably near some of the most popular outdoor locations such as the Quiraing, the Storr, Mealt & Lealt Falls, Staffin Beach, and Brothers Point. All within less than 1/2 hour drive along one of the most scenic routes in Scotland. Other tourist destinations are 1 to 2 hours drive (make a day off it and travel across the Island). Staffin is the nearest large (by Skye standards) village with two shops, and a great cafe at Columba 1400 and Portree is about a 50 min drive. The weather on Skye is very changeable so you will require a mixture of clothing including waterproofs and shorts (yip both will be required). It is also a big place so the weather could be completely different at the other end of the island. Anyway, I am probably writing too much and slowing you down hitting that booking button. So in summary please book Ridge End Cottage you will not regret your choice to enjoy living for a short time on this magical island. We will definitely book Ridge End Cottage for future return trips to the Misty Isle.
Thankyou SO much for your wonderful feedback. We really appreciate you taking the time and are just delighted you enjoyed your stay enough to hope to return. We very much enjoyed reading this which also re opens our eyes to just exactly what we have around us.
Thankyou. We look forward to welcoming you back.

"The only thing was that there was three lights not working in the living room and there was no instructions on how to get more wood for the log burner if you required it."
It would have been nice recommended places to eat.
Hi. I’m so sorry you did not have the information you required about places to eat and where to get wood. These were in an attachment I had sent to you but maybe you did not receive it although the same pack is in the cottage. I will leave this out in a more conspicuous place as a result of your feedback. The light bulbs in 3 of the ceiling spotlights do need changing and I am so sorry, but as you will realise, it is not a straightforward procedure with the height of the ceiling. With the time required for a full clean of the cottage between guests, we have been waiting for enough of a gap to get the equipment and resources required, in the cottage in order to safely make the changes. As there are so many other spotlights and the lamps, we felt there was a good level of light. We take on board all your comments and address them.
Thankyou for taking the time to feedback. We appreciate all suggestions and act on all feedback.

While some travelers may not like the remoteness of this part of the island, we found it a perfect place to experience the mystical nature of this island. The cottage itself is extremely comfortable and has every amenity you could ever imagine needing on a holiday. But what's really special is that from every room there are views of the sea and of the Quiraing (there's also a footpath you can take to hike the Quiraing just up the hill from the cottage!) and your nearest neighbors are the McIntyre's sheep, whose soft bleeting will lull you to sleep.

The only minor issue (which is so insignificant it's only worth mentioning as its the ONLY thing between this cottage and absolute perfection) is that the fixed shower head is not well aligned so that most of the water just goes straight across the cubicle and down the wall.
That being said, we absolutely adored our stay here and miss it already. We'll definitely be coming back to Syke, and we'll be sure to try for this cottage again too!

The views are stunning and the location at the end of the Trotternish is a great starting point to see most of what’s what on Skye while still being away from it all - and any drive you do to get to things is breathtaking and part of the fun.

The log fire was nice on the windy evenings and the owners provided a nice amount of logs for our first evening and also provided us with some lovely fudge which was a nice touch. Overall one of the nicest cottages we have stayed in. We hope to be back in the near future.

"The owners are helpful and very friendly."
We cannot fault the cottage in any way. It was very clean, tidy and comfortable and was perfect or us. The more remote a cottage is, the more we like it, so for us, the location was perfect.

"The cottage is perfect!"
Location, very secluded, well equipped and cosy. We loved the layout of it, definitively unique. A short walk to the coast, and a short drive to amnenites. The owners were very helpful, and regularly contacted me to make sure we were comfortable. We had a wonderful week, thank you!

"Absolutely brilliant!"
Our favourite place to stay hands down. We had 2 adults and 4 kids and it was perfect. Well equipped, clean, great location. You almost wanted the bad weather as an excuse to nest inside and enjoy. Loved it.

"The cottage was super clean and cosy."
The location is perfect for exploring the Isle of Skye throughout. We had a very peaceful and relaxing stay. The owners were very helpful and were prepared to go out of their way to help us (we were in need to european socket adapters). Would recommend to stay at this cottage for anyone.

"Owners were lovely."
I ended up calling them twice (before the trip to arrange key pickup as we were potentially arriving late and another time to check how to turn the heating on which was our own fault as we’d accidentally knocked it off!) and both times, they were more than happy to help and really warm and friendly. Lovely little touches in the cottage. Stunning location. Warm and cosy.

"This is an absolutely brilliant cottage and our stay at Skye was amazing, this cottage being one of the reasons."
It's so well maintained and all the modern amenities are present in a perfect scottish setting. The small bedroom in the attic space is so spacious, this was our favourite sleeping space on our entire holiday in Scotland. Highly recommend this place and the hostess.

"Spacious cottage with amazing views in every direction."
Six of us stayed here, four adults and two children, plenty of room for all without feeling on top of each other. Woodburner in the open plan living room/dining/kitchen. Mezzanine bedroom (big enough for double bed plus sofas!) above living room had superb views over the rural countryside, mountains in the distance. Two other large bedrooms (one double, other twin) and a modern bathroom. This is the perfect base to enjoy peace and tranquillity. Evening strolls at Duntulm castle ruins as the sun disappears, Uig coastal village for real ale and exploring the fairy glens, or hiking the magestic Storr are not to be missed. I wish I lived closer to this beautiful part of the country. Highly recommend a stay here.

"Beautiful cottage set in a stunning location."
Not the most central, but if you're looking for a quite retreat with wonderful views this is the place. Upstairs bed needs a more comfortable mattress but slept well all the same. We will be back!

"Ridge End Cottage is a lot nicer than internet pictures, hence pleasant surprise."
One week is too short, if the weather is bad as we had it( can't change that). Loved every minute of it even the wild windy days. Would highly recommend the cottage and the location, lots of farm animals and wild life to see as long as you are prepared for 4 seasons in week!

"Very comfortable accommodation in a great remote location."
House is well stocked with utensils crockery etc. The mezzanine bedroom is wonderful! Satellite TV is provided (should this be important to you) but be aware this can be easily disrupted should the weather turn nasty and due to the location it will not be so easy for the proprietor to fix. Fortunately Skye is such a beautiful place, for us the lack of Sky TV was not a major loss. All in all a great holiday base and would definitely consider booking Ridge End again.
