Third twin bedroom adjacent to a family bathroom with an over-bath shower

Open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area on the ground floor

Upper-level sitting area with a large picture window — ideal for reading or watching the light change over the Cuillins

A patio door leads from the dining area onto a decked outdoor space, overlooking a south-facing garden that borders natural croft land — peaceful, private, and perfect for enjoying long Skye evenings.

Additional features include:

Electric central heating and double glazing throughout

Portree’s picturesque harbour, shops, cafés, and restaurants are close by, while walkers, climbers, cyclists, and wildlife enthusiasts will find endless opportunities across the island — from coastal paths to mountain trails and boat trips.

    ARUS is a very nice modern home - spacious and great views. It has all the amenities that a person / family would need for a stay on the Isle of Skye. It is a short distance from Portree by car but perhaps too far to walk frequently into Portree (2 miles). The property was clean, quiet, and very comfortable.

    We loved this house! The location was fantastic and the views were everything. My friends and I had a great home base for a week of hiking on Skye.

    We had a wonderful few days in Arus. It’s a lovely modern, comfortable and well equipped house with stunning views across to Portree. The location was perfect for us to head out for time in Portree, walks in the hills and a trip to Raasay. I would highly recommend.

    This is an absolutely stunning place to stay. The view is breathtaking. The accommodations are lovely. The host is fantastic. I cannot say enough good things about this stay. Super convenient location (close to town but quiet), easy to get around from). The home is well stocked with one of the nicer kitchens I've seen in a VRBO. Overall, if you can stay here on your vacation to Skye, you should. It's exceptional.

    The cottage was well appointed, clean and well equipped. The view towards the Cuillins was delightful and always changing. The position is quiet and handy to Portree and roads to the sights of Skye. Wonderful place to stay.

    Great location to explore Skye. Views from the cottage were spectacular, was nice to have two sitting areas from which to enjoy them. House is very well equipped with everything we could’ve needed especially in the kitchen. Bedrooms well furnished too and very comfortable, blackout blinds were perfect for the early morning sun and having three bathrooms was a treat. Beds were comfy too. Our first visit to Skye and it didn’t disappoint!

    A very comfortable property, five minutes from Portree by car. Beautiful views, functional kitchen, large enough for three couples (three bathrooms) but perfect for two. In excellent condition, clean and easy to navigate. A very pleasant and quiet home away from home.
