An original croft cottage, Green Pastures in the tiny crofting hamlet of Gillen on the Waternish peninsula on the Isle of Skye has been newly refurbished to ensure maximum comfort, enjoyment and convenience for our guests. The cottage is set in its own 6 acres of croft land and has amazing uninterrupted views of the sea.
The cottage sleeps 4 in two bedrooms, one a king size double, the other a twin.
With a wood burning stove, double glazing, full oil central heating and underfloor heating in the contemporary kitchen and bathroom, you will always be cosy.
With its stunning uninterrupted views over the sea and an abundance of peace and quiet, this is the ideal place to get away from it all.
There are good restaurants nearby, castles like Dunvegan to visit, boat trips to take, sea eagles to watch for... so much to do!
