Tidal Reach, Dunhallin

A beautiful, brand new 2 en-suite bedroom ,(1 king, 1 twin) single storey holiday cottage with glass frontage overlooking the Isle of Isay from the very sought after Waternish peninsula. This is one of the most comfortable and well designed properties that there is on Skye. The views, whether rain or shine, are simply stunning. Tidal Reach is one of the most delightful properties on Skye. With 2 en-suite bedrooms, 1 king (UK size) and 1 twin room, it is ideal for a short break as a couple, with family or friends. With a wood burning stove in the living room, so no matter what the weather you can feel warm and cozy in this incredibly well insulated property. I am sat here at the moment in the swivel chair next to the window and am simply trying to put what I am seeing into words. It is not easy, so, best come and see it for yourself!

Finished to a high standard, this home has been built with comfort and leisure in mind. Possibly a writer's paradise.

The view is simply fantastic and we are delighted to have it on our books!
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Absolutely amazing view and beautiful property so had a wonderful stay. The 2 individual bedrooms with en suites were lovely and very clean and well prepared. As Americans with very different appliances and heating at home, we really could’ve used a guidebook for how to run the dishwasher and washer/ dryer, etc. Perhaps a notebook with individual pages on the basics of the appliances as we have had at other rental properties. Called into the service First evening of our stay about minor repairs and they had someone there the next morning who quickly fixed the issue and was kind enough to give us tips on local sights to see. Would love to go back someday.

Beautiful, serene, comfortable

If I could give more than five stars, I would. This house was the perfect getaway for our trip - two adult couples touring the country. Very remote, this coastal house was so easy to use. The hosts had a very helpful video system to guide us on house use. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for making our vacation a wonderful experience!

Getting away from it all!

This was a fantastic place to stay if you want to be off the beaten path, but still plenty close for hikes & provisions. So quiet & peaceful, the view is stunning & never got old. We loved coffee in the morning watching the windows & a dram by the fire to unwind at night. Best shower after you’ve hiked in the rain & fog, too.

Beautiful Oasis on Skye

My husband and I had a lovely time at Tidal Reach. This property is very well managed, it was impeccably clean and we were blown away by the views out the vast windows. The accommodations were really comfortable, and there was ample space to relax. The kitchen was easy to cook and clean in with what looked to be all new appliances. The deck offered incredible sunset views, and in person the views are even more beautiful than in the photos. We highly recommend this oasis for your next stay on Skye!

Beautiful View

Once we were able to find the house and find the code to get into the house it was fantastic. The view was beyond measure. Loved the house. The owner needs to list the correct address on the Vrbo site and send the check in process to the travelers. We spent 3 hours trying to locate the property and trying to call the owner. The owner sent no Check in email or list on the site. Extremely frustrating.

Over the Sea to Skye- Delightful Cottage Paradise

This cottage was incredible! With the Outer Hebrides Islands visible in the distance, it is located on a hillside near the village of Hallin in Waternish and overlooks a beautiful bay that is connected to Loch Dunvegan and the North Atlantic. The setting is picture postcard perfect! On the outside, the cottage was built stylistically to fit in with the traditional whitewashed Scottish cottages that you see frequently in Scotland. On the inside, it was very modern and welcoming. Large windows and sliding glass doors faced the ocean allowing us to take in the beautiful vista in the comfort of the living space. While modern in style, the cottage was not cold or sterile in its décor. In fact, we found it to be very warm, inviting, and comfortable. After our daily excursions on Skye, we thoroughly enjoyed coming back to the cottage to unwind. The kitchen is well-equipped, the bathrooms are modern, and the bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. The fact it is about 8 miles off the main road (A850), you get very little traffic on the one-track road in front of the cottage and basically no ambient light. If location is everything, we can testify whole-heartedly that this cottage delivers 110% on that measure. While not located in the middle of Skye, we felt the cottage was a great home base for exploring the magnificent beauty of Skye yet still allowing us peace and solitude in a beautiful scenic setting. If you are planning a visit to Skye, this cottage is the place to be!

Beautifully designed, bright and spacious cottage in an amazing location with stunning views.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this property - it has a great open-plan layout and is spacious and bright. The huge glass window/door gives incredible views across the sea and islands. It is clean and really well furnished and equiped. The weather was too cold for us to use the outside seating area and not cold enough for us to use the stove but both looked great! Communication with the property manager was also good. Thoroughly recommend!
