About Falls Cottage

Uig, Portree 4.3 miles. Surrounded by dramatic hillsides and vast views across the rugged landscape, Falls Cottage is the perfect property for families or two couples looking to indulge in the wonders of the Isle of Skye.

With easy access to many amazing walks and beaches, this property is settled within the picturesque village of Kingsburgh, near Uig, Portree, Isle of Skye. Be welcomed by stunning scenery and the sound of a peaceful river running by as you park off-road and unpack with ease, admiring the dramatic backdrop of trees and wilderness this property has to offer.

Once inside, make yourself at home in a wonderful sitting/dining room, where French windows open up onto the garden and create a wonderful airy feeling to this space, with two reclining leather sofas and a tartan armchair encouraging you to relax with a cup of tea and plan the day ahead of you beside the woodburning stove, or enjoy a meal together at the dining table. When it comes to cooking, this property has it all, with a great contemporary kitchen with wooden flooring and enough space to allow guests to enjoy cooking together.

Venture up the stairs to find two super-king-size bedrooms with wonderful blue décor, additional seating and a view across the countryside, and each with a stunning contemporary en-suite shower room where you will simply love soaking the chill from your skin. Outside, a seating area creates a bubble of calm amongst dramatic scenery, where dining alfresco will be a must.

The Isle of Skye is an incredible destination, and with your stay at Falls Cottage, you will have easy access to the nearby town of Uig, Prortree, where pubs and convenience stores can be found, as well as local craft and produce shops, and there is also the option of visiting the wonderful Skye Brewery a little further afield. Head further into the wilderness to find a simply breath-taking variety of walks, including historical sites such as Caisteal Ùisdein, scenic walks at Trotternish Ridge and within an hour’s drive you will find yourself at the mystical Fairy Pools where you may be lucky enough to wild swim!

Falls Cottage Reviews

Rosa ia
Excellent in all ways. Beautiful welcome with home baking and fruit bowl. Staples in the breadbin and fridge. Gorgeous wood burner. Loved entering into the house from a cold icy day to a warm cosy place due to the underfloor heating. A home from home. Beautiful views. Friendly and helpful hosts.
Fabulous cottage! Very clean and welcoming. Fantastic views. Great location for exploring the island. Cosy and warm. Well equipped kitchen. Would definitely recommend.

We had a lovely stay at the falls. Very well equipped and in a handy location.
This is a beautiful, very comfortable, and very well equipped cottage. It also has a marvellous view. Maggie and her husband live right next door and they are wonderful! Thank you so much for everything. We hope to be back!
Falls Cottage was lovely! The accommodations were very comfortable, clean and well equipped, all that is desired in a holiday let.

A very lovely and comfy cottage with a fabulous views, the hosts went to a lot ... A very lovely and comfy cottage with a fabulous views, the hosts went to a lot of trouble to go the extra mile and leave lots of extras for us, like freshly baked cakes, milk, fresh bread and something to sip in the evening, we had a really lovely stay and were sorry to leave

Cottage beautiful, very comfortable! Arrived to homemaking,& other extras! Owners very friendly, there if you need them! Not too far from portree, & there is a forest right next to Cottage, to walk dog! Highly recommended
Alison
Falls Cottage is easy to find next to the A87 Portree to Uig road. The lefthand turning into the drive is just before the main entrance to the Kingsburgh community forest on the right. If you reach the bridge over the river Hinnisdal, youve just passed the property. There is plenty of parking by the property. The cottage is comfortable, clean, cosy and warm. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you could need including a tea towel, hand towel, dish cloth, pan scrubber and oven gloves. The fridge and freezer are under the counter size. The owners provide a nice welcome pack which includes some home baking of delicious scones, rock cakes etc. There are dishwasher tablets, washing tablets, washingup liquid, hand wash, tea, coffee, sugar, toilet rolls and shower gel provided. There is plenty of hot water. Very comfortable bed and excellent shower in the room we used. It was so restful going to sleep listening to the river. The bedding is good quality and lovely soft towels. The friendly owners next door quickly sorted out a couple of small problems we had. We were lucky to have some lovely weather whilst on Skye to explore the island. We had a thoroughly enjoyable time at this lovely property and would recommend it to anyone wanting a holiday on Skye.
What a wonderful cottage equalled only by the hosts, Maggie and Roddy, who manage to be both welcoming and unobtrusive all at the same time. We found the cottage to be one of the most well equipped and well furnished that we've stayed in. It is ideally situated to explore the north and west of the island and with views of the nearby sea loch to admire when you wake up staying here felt a real privilege!
Russel
From the moment we arrived at Falls Cottage. ...everything was perfect, and this includes the gorgeous homemade scones and rock cakes. Falls Cottage is ideally located to see all the sights in Skye, its also comfortable, cosy, has everything you would need during uiur stay and above all is spotlessly clean. The owners, Maggie & Robbie, live next door. However, you don't see them unless you knock on their door but I'd recommend you do as they are lovely people. We had a fantastic week on Skye and wholeheartedly recommend Falls Cottage.
Valerie
An outstanding property, very well equipped, comfortable and the super king size beds were amazing. Maggie and Roddy are a delightful couple could not have been more hospitable and friendly even provided us with delicious home baked scones, rock buns and shortbread. Peaceful, relaxing and trouble free holiday, could not have been better and great value as well. Thank you so much, we hope to be back take good care of each other and stay bright. Highly recommended well done.
Darren
Great place in a great location, views over the Loch. Welcome pack, including home baked good was amazing. Owners live next door. Super friendly, but give you privacy. The house was spotless and we would love to stay again.
Excellent many thanks
We had a lovely time in Skye, thank you for the hospitality. The welcome gifts and homebaking were gratefully received. The cottage catered for all including our dog and easily accommodated four people. The whole cottage was very comfortable and a good night's sleep was had after a busy day exploring the island. The cottage has everything you need to live comfortably for a week. There is so much to see and do with so many hidden gems you could spend a fortnight and still run out of time to see everything you would like. We'll just have to come back again. The cottage is well situated for exploring Trotternish and Waternish in particular. If you enjoy walking, hiking or hill walking then it's ideal. Good early morning dog walk in the forest opposite.
It was like coming home. The warm welcome from Maggie and Roddy was matched by our delight in seeing them again for our second 'Falls Cottage Spectacular'. We were not let down. There were also delicious treats waiting for us to help us start enjoying and relaxing from the start and the beautiful and immaculate Cottage. The weather was 'cracking the hedges' and so a very different experience from last October. If you want an excellent location for the Isle of Skye with comfort to the highest level thrown in, look no further than this wonderful Cottage.
We had a lovely week at Falls Cottage. Roddy and Maggie were very welcoming and the cottage has been built and fitted out to a high standard.
We had a great week at Falls Cottage, it was excellently equipped and really comfortable, even better than shown in the photographs. Maggie and Roddy were most welcoming with lots of extras and delicious cakes. They even provided a week of hot sunny weather, so we could make use of the outside seating area. The sunsets seen from the comfort of the sofas were superb, and the stars at night amazingly bright. thank you
Thomas
Wonderful hosts who thought of everything we might need, and some lovely extras! Really nice property comfortable, clean, lots of facilities and amazing views. Opposite some woodland which was really convenient for morning dog walks. Great location and fantastic base for exploring Skye!

This is a unique holiday cottage and we will certainly be back.

The house is excellent! Everything is new and tidy. Location is great and we can see the greatest sunset right outside the window of the house!

We had such a lovely time in Falls cottage. The property is lovely and in a great location to get around Skye. It was lovely to come back to Falls cottage at the end of a busy day and Maggie and Roddy were great hosts who made us feel very welcome. The facilities in the cottage are superb if you want to spend time relaxing there and great options for eating nearby in Uig as an alternative. We highly recommend Falls Cottage and Skye for a perfect break. We will definitely be back.
Falls Cottage was a real find. A highspec, warm and comfortable cottage which comes with incredible views, and is a short drive away from Portree and all the sights of the Trotternish Peninsula. The bedrooms were incredible, the bathrooms were luxurious and the kitchen had everything we needed.
My husband and I were privileged to be the first guests at Falls Cottage in Skye and we couldnt recommend the accommodation more highly. The cottage was in a stunning location with lovely walks from the accommodation itself. The cottage was really cosy, comfortable and beautifully equipped with beautiful views. The overall facilities and equipment in the kitchen were outstanding and a real home from home. Maggie had thoughtfully provided us with basic supplies such as bread, milk, butter, eggs, fruit as well as freshly baked scones and shortbread. She even kept us supplied with home baking throughout the whole week. Roddy and Maggie were both so approachable and welcoming and we couldnt have wished for better hosts, a fabulous holiday for sure. Thank you.
