Lovely, well-located place to stay

This was a wonderful stay, with great directions from Alan, extensive welcome snacks and so forth in a clean, well-designed space. Parking is easy, walking in to the center of Portree also very simple. Alan had many siggestions for what to do and lots of maps and brochures available to help with decision making. I would most definitely stay here again!

Lovely place to stay

We traveled with our daughter, who stayed in the Portree Youth Hostel. The location of the Pipers Hut was fabulous for walkjng both to the town centre and to the hostel. Alan and Megan were wonderful hosts and the studio was perfect. We only wish we had stayed for a couple more days.

This property is priceless !

This property is outstanding. Alan and Megan are perfect hosts and nothing is short of excellence. Situated in the town of Portree everything is in walkable distance. The self contained apartment is 5 Star and exudes quality. Personal touches and small luxuries are thoughtful and welcomed. Book early for this one to avoid disappointment.

Best honeymoon stop!

Me and my wife have travelled the north of Scotland for our honeymoon. No place has been as good in quality and services as the Piper’s Hut. We’ve had at our private usage a little flat, with kitchen, bathroom, coffee machine, fridge, toaster, food… It was five minutes foot distance to the city centre of Portree, which is the biggest city on Skye Island and a strategic location for trip routes exploring the island. We met Megan, she has been lovely and caring. We she and Alex discovered of our honeymoon they have welcomed us with a card and a letter, and with a bottle of Prosecco to celebrate. We felt at home: our best staying in Scotland!

This was a very warm and cozy property. The host(s) have obviously payed a significant amount of attention to detail and thought into the preparation and presentation of this property. You will find almost anything you could possibly need in a pinch without having to venture out after a long trip. The host(s) were also very approachable, kind, and helpful with regard to making recommendations for outings and dining options. I would not even consider other options if there was an opportunity for another trip to Isle of Skye. 10 out of 10 is simply an understatement.

Could not have been more perfect

Piper’s Hut was impeccably clean, with every amenity we could have hoped for. Alan and Megan have created a cozy home away from home and they took the time to check on us when we arrived and when we departed. They truly care about their guests. We will be returning!

Wunderschöne, bestens ausgestattete Ferienwohnung in zentraler Lage

Parken direkt vor der Tür, unkomplizierter check in. Wir haben uns direkt wohlgefühlt, es ist grösser als es auf den Bildern scheint. Sehr komfortabel, alles tip top sauber , grosse Dusche. Küche mit Kühlschrank, Herdplatten und Mikrowelle . Es stand sogar Butter, Marmelade, Käse und vieles mehr bei unserer Ankunft bereit . Alan ist ein sehr liebenswerter Gastgeber. Er hat uns wertvolle Tipps für unsere Ausflüge gegeben. Die Betten sind sehr komfortabel. Es sind nur ein paar Minuten Fussweg bis vom Zentrum. Wir hatten eine erholsamen und unvergesslichen Aufenthalt im Pipers hut. Wir wollen auf jeden Fall wieder kommen und länger als 4 Nächte bleiben.
