Drumgarry - Skye house with breathtaking sea views.

Drumgarry is set within a private, secluded woodland. The house commands breathtaking views across the sea towards the Knoydart hills and mountains beyond. The stunning location is complimented by the beautiful, natural gardens surrounding the house.

The house is spacious, sleeping up to 6 people. With master, superking bedroom, bunk room and a 3rd bedroom which can be used flexibly as either 2 singles or as an additional superking. The huge kitchen/ dining room is very well equipped and looks out across the garden to the rear. The living room with real fire, features large french windows opening onto a large deck and seating area, perfectly positioned to take in the gorgeous scenery and views. The house also has 2 bathrooms, one with shower, one with bath and shower.

Drumgarry is in the small township of Ardvasar on the southern tip of the island. There is a pub and restaurant within the hotel which sits at the foot of the house's drive, just 1 minutes walk away and serving excellent food; there are also many other excellent restaurants in the area. There is a local shop 5 mins drive away (but it's also a beautiful 15 minute walk), and there's a large supermarket in the next main town of Broadford.

Being located on Skye, there is access to the many places of interest there such as the Cuillin mountains, fairy pools, dinosaur fossils, clan castles and distilleries, not to mention the Old Man of Storr, black and white coral beaches and the quiraing. Tours for dolphin and whale watching and other water-based activities can also be booked nearby. The house itself is within walking distance of the ferry terminal which links with Mallaig on the mainland, the town where the Harry Potter train terminates. This also allows for access to mainland destinations such as Camusdarach beach and the Silver Sands of Morar. Ferry routes to the various, beautiful, nearby islands and beyond also depart from Mallaig.

Such a beautiful location to stay
Everything was brilliant. The location of the house with the great view. The rooms are lovely, the kitchen and the living room very cosy. Our stay there was definitely too short and we hope to return one day.

Wonderful Stay
Home is a bit off the beaten path but wonderful accommodations and location. Very roomy with large kitchen and front sitting room. Views of the Atlantic were as promised and there were flowers everywhere. There is a wonderful local pub and hotel restaurant only a very short stroll away

Spacious, well equipped kitchen, responsive host.
Nice place. Spacious. Host was great. Lock is tricky on front door and we couldn’t get the dryer to dry clothes but it had a nice laundry room. Plenty of seating areas too.

Lovely short break
Stayed for just 2 nights in October Half term. Party of 6 (Inc two young teen children) and two small dogs. We had a lovely stay. Plenty of space for everyone, beds very comfortable with warm duvets. The kitchen had everything we needed to make home cooked meals and if you don’t feel like cooking the Inn at the bottom of the drive has a great menu. Washing machine was very handy, we were midway through our holiday so great to get a few items cleaned to wear again. We did use the coal fire located in the living room and the room warmed up nicely once we got it going. It was warm enough that the clothes dried overnight on the airer. :) It’s a perfect location if you are getting the ferry to or from Skye. Communication with Kyle was excellent beginning to end too. We would stay here again and would recommend to friends and family thinking of visiting the island! Thanks for having us.

Lovely stay!
We had a great time! It's quite a drive from most of the main/touristy spots on Isle of Skye, but its a beautiful drive. We were also a little intimidated by the coal fire heating system, but it actually made it a very cozy experience. Kyle was very communicative and helpful.

Peaceful stay on stunning Isle of Skye
The property itself was a beautiful find - quiet, so peaceful! We loved being able to open the french doors right out to the deck from the living room and one of the bedrooms and look at the view of water and mountains in the distance - a true vacation feeling and the large kitchen was great! House felt very roomy. Host was super easy to connect with, got an immediate response from Kyle with a question. It is a more isolated location which is not a problem if you plan ahead for dinner reservations -the one place you can walk to (The Inn at Aird A'Bhasair) gets full so we were glad we booked ahead for our 2nd night. Isle of Skye is magical - would love to come back!

Fabulous stay
We had a superb stay at Drumgarry at Easter. House is so comfortable and cosy and we are hoping to return next year. Great location for walking and ideal for an evening stroll to the nearby pub. Kyle was great at answering any questions we had prior to our stay.
