The detail

A luxury escape from modern life. Our one-bedroom cottages are designed for couples looking for an indulgent romantic break. Set in the stunning and remote coastal village of Geary, yet only ten minutes drive from Skye's only Michelin star restaurant and the island's oldest pub.

The Blackhouse has a turf roof and one metre thick stone walls, making it warm and cosy. Sleeping two people, this romantic getaway has a turf roofed entrance hall. Floor to ceiling windows perfectly frame the amazing views over Loch Snizort to the islands of Harris and Lewis beyond. The living and dining area combines with the hand crafted and fully equipped Devol kitchen. There is also a Fired Earth designer bathroom with large tub and rainforest shower on this level, while heading upstairs leads to the elevated bedroom with Superking size bed and second sitting room. Floor to ceiling windows looks out across the beach of Bein an Sguirr.

The Croft House also sleeps two guests, built in 1934 by local craftsman in village stone. Its views over Loch Snizort look out towards the Ascribe Islands and the Trotternish Ridge. The sitting room and library have stone walls, oak floor boards, and a wood burning stove to ensure it is truly welcoming. Meanwhile, the spacious kitchen and dining area has also been hand crafted by Devol and boasts a slate floor with a large kitchen table. Upstairs is the super king size bedroom with vaulted ceiling, plus an accompanying Fired Earth designer bathroom with rainforest shower and a separate dressing room.
