• "The pod was very clean and well appointed."

  I particularly liked the shower room area - much larger than expected. The free samples were much appreciated. The underfloor heating very cosy. . The owners were very welcoming, and available for any queries. It was great to have linen, towels and energy costs included - unlike some pods we had stayed in. Everything we needed was there. It made the long journey there more manageable. I also liked that they tried to be as sustainable as possible - good principles. All in all a cosy haven. Would definitely recommend.

  Thankyou so much for taking time to provide your valuable feedback. We are delighted you enjoyed your stay. Thankyou. Property Owner

  Thankyou so much Matthias. We are delighted to know you enjoyed your stay. It is our main goal that guests leave with happy memories of their stay. I also thank you for your suggestions regarding the extractor fans in the pod. I have spoken with an electrician and will be having the fan cowls changed to ones with shutters, which will suit our changing weather conditions so much better. We wish you all the very best.

  It’s so clean and sweet exactly as the pictures show. Skye is an island which is 100 miles in length. Regardless of where you stay it’s a drive. This location is charming and brings such peace. So many little amenities. We adored it !

• "Garriadh Ghorm was the perfect cosy retreat we were looking for!"

  Not only did the pod exceed our expectations with all the little touches Catriona had left for us, but it was the perfect cosy retreat to sit after a day of exploring the island. We spent a week there and didn't get the best weather but that did not put us up or down as the underfloor heating worked a treat, the bed was beyond comfy (so good we overslepped a couple of days) and the little porch was a great shelter from the rain which meant we could sit wrapped in a blanket with a whiskey watching the sun go down or the storms come in. A trully magical little place that is secluded and peaceful. Catriona was the perfect host and on hand if we needed anything, however, everything we needed was already there which made our stay even more perfect.

  Thanks so much for this lovely feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the pod , your time on Skye, and the weather didn’t spoil it for you. Property Owner

• "The pod was perfect for us, exactly as pictured and so clean and well thought out."

  The location was also perfect, so close to lots of things to see and only 20 mins from a larger town. The host was lovely, so easy to communicate with and was very attentive to make sure we were comfortable. I’d mentioned to her that I was 30 weeks pregnant on our holiday and a fan was left at the door to help if I got too warm which was over and above expected. We would go back in a heart beat.

  Thanks so much. We love to know people have loved the pod as much as we do. Property Owner

  Fantastic location in the most dramatic landscape Skye has to offer. You get a feel for crofting life and we loved the privacy as, unlike many other pods, this pod is the only one at the site. Perfect to access fantastic walks such as Old Man of Storr and The Quiraing. Owners were really lovely and friendly but not at all intrusive. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay again.

• "We were blown away by the exceptional attention to detail in this quirky little pod."

  Everything we needed was there and extras. We particularly liked the Bluetooth speaker system! The pod was spotless and the bed was so comfortable. Catriona and Peter were the perfect hosts, making sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. They sent us a really informative email before our arrival date which is something we had never had before. The pod is compact but because it has been so well designed, still has loads of open space. All of the toiletries supplied are eco friendly and cruelty free, which to us, as vegans, was a lovely surprise. We even had soya milk in the fridge on arrival and some lovely toiletries to say sorry that they hadn't managed to get us vegan cookies! The area is fantastic, right at the top of Skye. We visited at the end of May so it didn't get really dark until midnight. Perfect for sitting out on the verandah with a glass of wine listening to the cuckoo and the sheep. Skye is a wonderful island. Must sees are the Quaraing, the Old Man of Storr, Fairy Pools, Fairy Glen, Staffin Beach and Dunvegan Castle, to name a few. We will definitely be back. Catriona and Peter, thank you for a perfect week.

• "We had a wonderful stay at Garraidh Ghorm Pod."

  From the outset, Catriona was incredibly helpful – phoning ahead to give directions, ask if we needed anything, leaving lovely fresh eggs from their chickens. We felt very welcomed to the Pod before we even arrived. The Pod itself is lovely. Catriona has clearly put a great deal of thought into the design, layout and functionality of the Pod. It is spacious, with a very well equipped kitchen. The induction cooker was great to cook on. The bed was comfortable, and the bathroom and shower were neat and well set out. The décor is thoughtful, tasteful and compliments the space perfectly. The unique selling point for us was the fact that the Pod is on its own. It is set in a spacious open garden, which Catriona and Peter are clearly investing in making into a lovely space, with lots of thoughtful environmental and wildlife-friendly touches. The peace and quiet was simply wonderful. We know that holiday Pods are becoming increasingly popular, and have seen a lot of sites with several together. The fact that Garraidh Ghorm Pod is on its own, with the space and privacy to enjoy the open space around it, with the hills behind and the view of the sea in front of the Pod, was wonderful. The setting is peaceful, with local crofts surrounding around you. The wildlife was excellent – the experience of seeing the buzzards perched just feet away from you was delightful. It is an easy stroll down to the sea along the lanes, and the spectacular marine mammal and bird-watching opportunities at Rubha Hunish are within walking distance. The Quiraing is a short drive away, and offers one of Scotland’s most iconic walking opportunities close by. I wholeheartedly recommend Garraidh Ghorm Pod to anyone looking for a peaceful, relaxing and comfortable retreat. Catriona could not be more helpful, and it was a wonderful holiday experience.
