Summary: Well-equipped, comfortable and spacious
Ashley K. Jan 1, 2025 06:19:08 PM
Summary: Look no further - Finlay’s mill was a phenomenal spot to spend our holiday for an outdoorsy family who appreciates character, charm, and rustic living. The photos don’t do the place justice - it’s spacious, tastefully decorated, quiet, and has a very comprehensive kitchen. The spiral staircase is wide and easy to carry things up and the views from the loft are postcard worthy, and it’s a quick walk to town, the co-op, and the shore. The wood burning stove kept us warm, and dried our clothes from our very wet hikes. Finlay stopped by with an hello and recommendations, and left us with some Scottish treats to share. The house is stocked with games, maps, and books. Our family of four (with two children 4 and 8) give this place a 10/10!

Summary: We had a fantastic holiday at the Old Mill. The accommodation really is exceptional, topped off by amazing views of the bay and minutes walk to restaurants and shops. This is our 5th family holiday in Skye and our stay at the Old Mill made it the best yet. We enjoyed every minute of our stay here and will definitely come back again. Thank you!

Summary: We have been guests at the Mill several times and have always felt very comfortable there.

Summary: Fully equipped kitchen with a big Rangemaster cooker and oven, very comfortable beds (a very nice 1.80 m wide bed in the master bedroom), 2 bathrooms with a toilet each, plus 1 additional toilet, lovely designed living spaces - we really enjoyed spending a week at the old mill!

Summary: A special builng (old mill) at an ideal location, 5 min walking from town center, very tastefull furnished and decorated. Parking available (normally a problem near town center) The kitchen is very well equipped and part of a nice and spacious living room. The kitchen has no extractor hood (at least we couldn't find any extractor), which brings the smell of cooking to the open bedroom upstairs. We found a welcome package. We appreciated the visit by the owners and their tips on activities. Don't forget to take a hike on Raasay and a break at Raasay house. The upstairs bedroom has it's own bathroom with a sink and toilet, shower/bath is at the ground floor.

Summary: We had a wonderful stay. The house is in a perfect location for exploring Skye. On a quiet street with a beautiful view yet a short walk into town with a nice trail also a short walk away. The house was one of the most tastefully decorated I’ve ever rented, and the host was helpful and communicative. House was also very well stocked. I recommend this rental most highly.

Summary: The Old Mill has been beautifully and thoughtful converted to created an extremely comfortable and cozy place to stay. Furniture, fittings, fixtures, and the kitchen are high quality throughout and the space is well designed to provide a great place to relax, cook, sleep, and generally stay. Location is excellent, right on the edge of Portree so you can walk to the shops, cafés, and sports centre, but in a wooded area next to a stream with superb views. I cannot recommend this property enough, we can't wait to return!

Summary: We always travel in a large group and the mill is just right for that. The first floor is a large open space with kitchen, dining area and living room. We have stayed at the mill several times and it has been always great.

Summary: We have enjoyed our stay at The Old Mill in Portree. The location is perfectly situated to enable walking everywhere into town. This property is delightful - restored with a sympathetic eye to a modern, high quality unit. It is very spacious, with 2 larger bedrooms and a 3rd room with bunk beds. The bedding is SO comfortable, extra pillows and high quality sheets. There are views from every window. Top notch fittings and the kitchen is large and done to a high spec. The photos don’t do it justice. It would be hard to convey the sense of relaxation and luxury this accommodation provides. Located in a quiet neighborhood, with shops a short walk away. The Scorrabreach Trail is almost on the doorstep. Local restaurants are all within walking distance. We have had a fabulous holiday here on Skye, thank you for your gracious hospitality and spectacular accommodation. Today we hiked the trail from behind the Cuillin Hills Hotel . Beautiful scenery. We had dinner tonight at Dulse & Brose - a wonderful meal. Just around the corner. Thanks again for the gracious hospitality, we hope to stay again, soon.
