Our Story
Burnside cottage is a cosy 3 bed-roomed holiday cottage, on the stunning peninsular of Waternish, Isle of Skye. With breathtaking sea views towards the Outer Hebrides to the front and heather covered moorland behind Burnside Cottage is the perfect place to unwind, relax and truly get away from it all.
The cottage, originally built in the 1880s, has recently been restored and has a contemporary feel. The front door leads into a spacious fully-equipped kitchen/dinning room with ample wooden work surfaces, a gas hob and oven. There is also a microwave and dishwasher. A large wooden dining table seats six. This leads into the cosy sitting room with leather sofas and a wood burning stove - ideal to while a way cold Scottish evenings. A large picture window gives views out towards the Loch. There is WI-FI, satellite TV and a Hi-fi system with docking for an iPod. There are three bedrooms, each one with sea views , and sleeps up to six people. The Master, has a large king-size double bed and en suite bathroom with stunning views towards Loch Bay. There is also a twin/double bedroom and the third room is great for the kids as it has bunk beds. The whole house is double glazed and centrally heated. The cottage is also equipped with a washing machine and tumble drier. A small garden with a patio is an great spot to sit and enjoy the fantastic scenery. Please note that the cottage is remote - about 45 minutes from Portree and 20 minutes to Dunvegan but with a lovely pub and restaurant just down the road in Stein.
The Waternish peninsular can be beautiful, calm, wild and stormy (often in the same day) but never boring! Peacefully situated, off the busy tourist route, Burnside Cottage is about 2 miles from the picturesque fishing village of Stein, which boasts the oldest inn on Skye (a fantastic place for a pint and to watch the spectacular sunsets over the Outer Hebrides) and The Loch Bay Seafood Restaurant. From Stein you can take fishing or wildlife watching trips with Diver’s Eye or join a trip to the remote island of St Kilda.
The village of Dunvegan is about a 15 minute car journey away, here you will find a great bakery, organic greengrocers, post-office and petrol station. It also has the popular Old School House Restaurant and Dunvegan Castle, home of the Clan Macleod. Portree is a 45 minute drive away.
