Waternish is centre of the most prominent peninsulas to project north west into the Minch. It is an extremely pretty area and very green. There are a series of scattered settlements here including Bay, Lusta, Stein, Hallin, Halistra and Trumpan. There are several places worth a visit whether it be historic or just local attractions. These include 'Fairy Bridge' dating from the early 1800's and apparently named because it was believed to be the haunt of fairies and where the then Chief MacLeod was given the famous 'FairyFlag' by his fairy wife (before she left him returning to her own people) to be waved only three times if the MacLeod Clan were in danger. The flag has been waved on two occasions and is now kept in Dunvegan Castle. Dunvegan Castle (about 15 minute drive) is the ancestral home of the chieftains of the Clan MacLeod. The castle can trace its history back to around 1200AD.
Also to be found in the Dunvegan area the beautiful Coral Beach - one of the best beaches in Skye with great views of the highest sea cliffs in Skye, Dunvegan Head.
The historic Trumpan church in Waternish was the scene of a bloody massacre of the MacLeod clan by the MacDonalds in the middle of the 16th century. There is an excellent picnic area here where you can enjoy superb views. Nearby you will find the path leading to the Waternish lighthouse for those of you who enjoy walking.

Summary: This location is a little preview of Heaven. The views of the ocean, the green fields, mountains, are out of this world, and it is the quietest, most peaceful place I have ever been. You might hear an occasional "baaaa' by the neighbors, "the sheep". Now to the 1800's house...it reminded me of my grandparent's house. It is very comfortable, and looked like what I imagined a Scottish home would be. We wanted the culture of the Scottish people to come through. It was quaint, and we loved it. We never turned on the TVs at all. Just had our souls, bodies and minds restored. Marion is wonderful to communicate with us. The two bedrooms are upstairs, and the bathroom is downstairs. For someone with mobility issues, this should be considered. We did not cook at the property, but there are adequate cooking appliances, etc. My favorite part of the house is the view from the front sitting rooms and the bedrooms upstairs. The beds are comfortable, which is very important to me. Just an amazing experience. If you are looking for a place to relax, away from people and for peace and quiet, this is it. We walked down to the Stein Inn for dinner and loved the beautiful scenery. The dinner was very good, and it was a fun place to go. We traveled here for a few days, and then to Edinburgh. Then on to Switzerland. This VRBO was my favorite place to be for the entire trip. Thank you, Marion, for sharing your cozy home with us.

Summary: Eileen Isay was the perfect central location for us to explore Isle of Skye. Dunvegan Castle, Fairy Pools, prehistoric Brochs, hiking in the Cuillins and our favourite hike The Quiraing. Absolutely jaw dropping scenery and magic weather all week. The cottage was ideal for us, cosy, warm, very comfy bed and everything we needed. Every evening we sat by the bay window and watched the amazing sunsets, all of which made our Golden Anniversary a very memorable one. Thankyou Marion!

Summary: Excellent bedding and sufficient heating. Lovely towels and reasonable facilities. The property itself is tired and it needed a good clean when we arrived. I had to hoover the house and clean the floors. The internal doors don't close properly and some are difficult to open. It needs a makeover to compete with other holiday properties.

Summary: We had an amazing stay at this charming little Loch side cottage. The views from the doors and windows out to the loch opening are stunning and the sun sets out over the islands and water making every clear night magical. The interior is simple but has all that you need, is comfortable and warm. Kitchen is well equipped for simple meals and there is ample room otherwise. Outside is a simple yard with grass, fully enclosed with fences and gate at the front entrance. It is within 20-30mins of most of the highlights of Skye. Portree is closest coop (25mins), small grocer in dunvegan for the odd pieces (10min drive). Didn’t get to the Stein inn or lochbay restaurant. Can recommend just hooked on Portree for fresh seafood and the butcher on struan road for fresh meat. Mostly a cultural difference between here and Aus is dogs everywhere, and as it’s impossible to get hair fully out of rugs, couch throw blankets etc, it was obvious if you sat on the floor or have little ones who did. We needed a break from phones, internet, TV but for those who are accustomed/seeking smart TVs and streaming, this wasn’t an option. However, There was a sky connection. We opted for the many puzzles that were available. We loved our stay here and would definitely book again

Summary: Superb location, clean etc but property quite dated and run down. It’s difficult to imagine how 6 people could stay there. Nice pub within walking distance.
