We stayed here for a week at the beginning of June and it was fantastic. The cottage is spotless and has everything you need. We loved the location as well - it was quiet and just a half an hour walk to a little beach and shop/cafe. Our dog loved the little goodie bag as well and is obsessed with his new toy! We would really recommend staying here if you are visiting Skye.

Nice little house away from mass tourism. Although it is a bit difficult to get to (about 30 minutes from Broadford on the single lane road), the tranquility of the place, the view and the surroundings compensate the traveler here. The accommodation has all the necessary equipment (from washing and dishwasher to smart TV and comfortable furniture).Dog friendly place.

Essentially I was disappointed by the stay at Tighe Lachie.||It is what it is - a cosmetic new build just off the main road opposite some moorland - but the nature of the design means that it is a 'Pokey' building which is very dark inside …

While the location of those cottages is far and fairly isolated, it is 100% worth the trip if you want calm and an amazing experience.The cleanliness is amazing, and the cottage comes with pretty much all the possible amenities necessary. Fast enough wifi, washing machine, dishwasher, all the cooking equipment, etc.It both feels modern and clean while being rustic enough to perfectly match the environment.Don't forget to refuel or make a stop at the grocery store in Broadford before you take the road toward Elgol.

We stayed in Tigh Mairi for a week in March where we had the best time eloping to Loch Coruisk. There was a beautiful welcome arrangement waiting for us with flowers and bubbles and the cottage was cosy, clean and had everything we needed. Its now forever immortalised in our wedding photos with great fondness, thank you Rachel and all involved at MTCs, forever grateful to your first class contribution to a really special time
