This BNB was booked for me thru timberbush tours- it was a great experience! Host was very friendly and helpful, wide selection of a breakfast spread in the morning and she left out fruit and other snacks we could take with us thru the day.Room and bathroom were clean, comfortable with extra seating, hair dryer, tea/ coffee and snacks available. Big tv where I could log in to my own Netflix. Bathroom with a nice rainfall showerhead. About a quarter mile walk into the main square in portree.

It has been a couple of months since my wife and I stayed at the Croft House, but I wanted to compliment them on their hospitality. The highlight was the wonderful and generous breakfast. There were so many options. The best (for me) was the fresh fruit which I mixed with yogurt, lemon curd, and a bit of granola! Thanks so much!!

My stay at the Croft House was absolutely wonderful!! The owner Rosie was a delight, greeted us upon arrival and gave us maps, and helpful tips for Portree. I stayed for 2 nights with some people from my same tour. The room was spacious, very clean, the owners had left out various snacks, coffee and tea sacks and an electric kettle in the room. There’s TV, wifi, Netflix, the private bathroom was fully equipped with soaps and toiletries. And the bed was like a cloud! Each room has its own bathroom and a key in case you want it. Rosie prepared a huge and varied breakfast and allowed us to use the living room as well. I just loved Portree, and my stay at the Croft house was a big part of that! Couldn’t recommend enough. Can’t wait to be back!

I stayed at the croft house for 2 nights. The host was incredibly kind and prepared lots of breakfast.
Rooms are spacious and had private bathroom. It is also pretty close to the restaurants in town, only a short walk.

Nice rooms, unfortunately extremely noisy if the room upstairs is rented, no warm breakfast, there is a small fridge in the room with breakfast utensils, a kettle, tea and coffee. Breakfast is then prepared in the room.

We stayed in croft house for 2 days. Since we were a group of friends travelling together, we had the whole cottage to our disposal (it has 3 rooms and can house atleast 7 people).The house was really neat and equipped with all what you might need for a comfortable stay. Per Covid guidelines house was sanitized before we checked in.Ian and christine are very nice and hospitable. They kept some breakfast stuff in the fridge for us.Its a bit tricky to spot the croft house at first, but Ian informed us in advance about the location and how to spot it.Lovely large garden and backyard to sit and star gaze at night.. ample parking space..We loved our stay there.
