We are very keen on hillwalking. Ratagan Lodge was ideally located for very easy access to a great many hills.We were blessed with the weather so we were able to use the sitting out area every day. What an unforgettable view there is from there. ##### Marion Wood This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Clare Oct 11, 2025 #### A lovely, spacious but cosy house with views to die for. A lovely, spacious but cosy house with views to die for. As we were a party of 2 we lived comfortably in the snug which allowed me to take photos of the mountains & loch every 2 minutes as the skies changed - the patio door from the snug onto the decking was well used! I even had some midnight mooches down to the loch to take photos of the moon reflecting on the water. Excellent communication with the owner & plenty of helpful information to make for a comfortable stay. The only thing that you may find helpful is that the entrance to the drive is on the 'main road' - I use that term loosely - through Ratagan. I arrived as it was going dark, my sat nav was telling me to turn left & my tired eyes couldn't quite work it out. Once you know, you know. Oh & for your own sanity, please remember the bathroom is downstairs! Great location for visiting Skye (we went twice) - the scenery is fantastic & we were lucky enough to see golden eagles (3 sightings). The good thing about going out of season is that you can be a tourist without being too much of a pain to the locals. Would I like to stay again? In a heartbeat. ##### Clare ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maureen M. Sep 28, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful setting, lovely house We had a week here in September (10-17th) and loved every minute. We saw otters from the shore one day and did walks in every direction from the house. The weather treated us quite kindly and we managed to be outdoors for a good part of each day without getting (too!) wet. The house was so comfortable and well set up it was always a pleasure to return to. We slept so well too…all the fresh air and a super comfy bed. A great location for exploring Skye and the Glenelg area too. ##### Maureen M. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David R. Jun 8, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relaxation We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Ratagan. The property was positioned perfectly to view the surrounding mountains and being loch side was ideal for a stroll. We observed a sea otter feeding on the shoreline as well as many other birds and wildlife. We were able to tour easily from Ratagan as the main road was only a short distance away and spent time on Skye as well as other beautiful areas of the West Coast. Thank you for allowing us to rent the Lodge, we hope to return! ##### David R.
