Our two-night stay at the Camping pods was very pleasant and suggestive. The little houses are really cute, basic but comfortable! We really enjoyed our time there. In addition, the managers were extremely kind and ready to answer to our questions! Highly recommended place to experience moments of wonderful tranquility and peace, immersed in a breathtaking panorama!

We stayed in the "Sierra" bungalow which has three mini bedrooms, a main bathroom and a service bathroom, a large living area. Carefully furnished and very clean, with heating. Found on Airbnb. There is nothing on the campsite except bungalows, sheep and a small play area for children. The location is ideal for visiting Skye and is very quiet. At the moment the view is "dirtied" by bulldozers and work in progress, but in any case absolutely recommended!

The pods correspond to the description. They are clear about what is and is not present. If you like comfort and luxury, you shouldn't come here.The location is ideal and also nice and quiet. It's nice that there is a playground for the children.There is a lack of maintenance, some mattresses have sagged and the floor is rotten in various places.It's a shame, with a few minor adjustments you can turn this into something really nice.The floor needs to be renovated, you can eventually fall through it. The same goes for the mattresses.I would also place a bunk bed in the family pod so that there is room for a table with 2 chairs.I would not stay here again for my next visit to Skye.A shame because with some minor adjustments you can have the ideal stay on Skye.

Good accommodation for those passing through. It was good if you had your own car and could easily get to and from the place. Some smell due to moisture lowered the rating slightly. The staff was helpful and nice.

Stayed here for two nights in April 2023 on our road trip to Isle of Skye with a group of 6-7 friends. It's very vibey but as another user mentioned, it is a CAMPING pod so don't expect fancy hotel stuffs. The pods are wooden, not concrete and thus cannot trap heat well, and it was pretty cold in the morning even in April. The rooms do not provide duvet, but you can rent sleeping bags from the reception to keep yourselves warm.

Basic but just enough for a couple of nights. Great location as only a 5 minute drive to the next village. So great to have somewhere that takes dogs. Midges were a nightmare so make sure you take something to combat them 😅.

It is a lovely place for a very reasonable price thinking about the scarcity of accomodation in the island compared with the insane amount of people visiting Skye. There is no laundry room or WiFi tho.

The location is ideal on the Isle of Skye as it is close to Portree and the main hiking trails. On the other hand, as specified in the advertisement there is no reception or service available (month of April), there is also no duvet or even table inside. Everything was as described but you should know that it is rudimentary! We didn't get cold thanks to the sleeping bags that you can rent but I don't recommend going there in winter... So it was a good experience but way too expensive for what it was, 150GBP per night with the only luxury being a kettle.

5 stars. Be careful on the roads for potholes. Bring a towel and a blanket. The showers are nice and the pods are nice. Portree is pretty good for food to bring back to the pods.

Bring your own linen/duvet. A heater is provided but not very effective. Pods are quite small. The people are very friendly and willing to help you out with any problems you have. Don't travel without a car in Isle of Skye.

Had an amazing experience staying there. Easy to find the location on maps. Self check-in and check out. Small space but well organized. A comfy bed with a great view. A bar nearby for drinks. Good place to stay with kids. There is no wifi which you need to consider while booking a stay here. Enough parking space.
