Lovely home to rent in Kyle of Lochalsh, near Skye
Our home is on the mainland, just 2 minutes drive to the Skye Bridge & walking distance (5 minutes) of the train station & bus stop so it is a great base for exploring the whole of the Skye & Lochalsh area and is more affordable than many options on the island. Perfect for 2 or 4 people but can accommodate 6. We are happy for 6 guests to stay but please be aware that it will be a wee bit of a squeeze. We're sorry that we don't welcome pets (due to my allergies).
