The Barn Culnacnoc

Amazing! The house is so cozy, beautifully laid out and well appointed. Great mattresses, towels, water pressure, etc. But really it's the incredible views from every single window (green rolling hills dotted with white sheep and the ocean out in the distance) and being along the path to Brother's Point that makes this place so special. We stayed in 3 rentals during our UK trip and this was by far the best and we all wish we had booked it for longer. We certainly hope to be back some day! One word of warning, we had a small SVU rental (Nissan Qashqai) and it just barely fit down the road to the rental - definitely wouldn't recommend a larger vehicle when visiting. Also, it's a good 25-30 min drive to Portree with limited food options closer by, so I would definitely recommend grabbing some groceries on your way there - you're going to want to hangout at/near 'the barn'. The tap water there was delicious, so no need for bottled water.

Our stay at The Barn was magical. The views were spectacular and the stars at night were amazing. The only downside was that we only stayed 3 nights and could’ve stayed a week. Very peaceful stay, well equipped accommodation, comfortable beds and a kitchen with all the modern conveniences. 5+ stars

We fully enjoyed our time at the Barn! Very clean, beautiful location, centrally located to everything we wanted to do and was fully equipped with everything we needed!

This 3 bedroom, two bath stone barn has plenty of space for sleeping and two large couches in the living room for down time. Beautiful views from the front door and all windows. The location is right on a hiking trail to brothers point. There is a gate to the barn property and the house faces away from the hiking trail so we really didn’t notice the hikers. Arrive with food! The kitchen is well equipped but it’s a drive to Portree for the nearest food shop. There is a small one in staffin that has essentials. The Quiraing hike is the most beautiful in the area although challenging. We went to Lealt falls and the Old Man of Storr as well.

We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely home. It has everything you need to make you time there comfortable. The beds were comfortable and the fireplace cozy.

The location was outstanding and we really enjoyed our stay at The Barn. We would highly recommend your place to others. The beds were excellent except for the single beds which were not large enough for an average sized adult. The French Press was nice but it would be so much better to have either a Nespresso or a similar type of machine. It would be good to invest in a few more kitchen amenities, eg, knives that are sharp, a carrot peeler (it was broken), some steak knives.

Heavenly property, felt like home - very comfortable, quiet, well appointed, clean, deceptively big on the inside. Location has incredible vistas and bonus walking access to Brothers Point - a hidden gem in our opinion and a great place to explore the Skye coastline without popping into the car. The picnic table is a great touch. The location (north of Portree on the upper part of the Trotternish peninsula) is ideal to access nearby hillwalking trails, the more common tourist routes as well as the less traveled routes. Note that most of the roads in these areas are single track, making for some fun driving. We didn't have dark skies given the time of year, but we expect the night sky in the darker months must be incredible here. We're bookmarking this property as one of our "must returns." Thank you for helping us make some wonderful memores on this trip.

The Barn is 15 minutes out of Portree and central to many sites including Ole Man of Storr. There were 6 in our party and the Barn was comfortable for us. The views are fantastic and the walk to the beach is right there. The beds are good, heat and appliances all worked. Loads of hot water. There is a fireplace but we didn’t use it. There are sheep everywhere and so fun to watch. We would stay there again for sure.

This is the kind of place you want to keep hidden so that only you and your friends know about it. The property is beautiful, very well maintained and equipped. It felt pretty new to me. The only thing missing was a coffee machine. The view over the sheep dotted hills is lovely. You cannot see the sea, except for a tiny little spot, but the way down to the beach takes 10 minutes. You are close to the main road (like 300 m) but it is still very quiet and the feel is of seclusion. No shops nearby. The closest town is Portree, 29 min away, so if you are into town settings this is not the place for you. For nature lovers the location is excellent, it is 15 min away from The Old Man of Storr and 15 min away from The Quaraing, which are the two most famous hiking areas on the island. The viewpoint of Brother's point is right down the beach. It is perfectly situated if you want to do the Trotternish loop. We had one small issue, the central heating and hot water broke down after the first evening, so we had 24 hrs without any hot water. We used the fireplace for heating and it was okay. We did miss the hot water. The accomodation was ready to offer us another place to stay of it did not get fixed but fortunately it did on the next morning. Highly recommended.

The Barn is located 15 minutes out of Portree. It is well appointed and comfortable. The Brother beach is walkable from the home. There are sweet sheep everywhere. The beds were comfortable, all appliances worked great and the heat was good. There is a fireplace too. We enjoyed our stay and would stay there again

Lovely property, well maintained, very clean and well kept. We stayed when the weather was quite rainy and extra blustery, so the only small challenge was navigating our car down the single track ruts to the property (standing water hid the potholes!) It is extremely secluded which we loved.

Really lovely home in a beautiful location. Clean, comfortable, quiet. Remote, but not too remote. Really enjoyed our stay here.

I’ve been coming to Skye for 15 years and have stayed all over the island. The cottage is probably situated in one of the nicest spots. The cottage was spotless and felt like home throughout our weeks stay. We hope to come back and stay again! Thank you for having us.

We fully enjoyed our time at the Barn! Very clean, beautiful location, centrally located to everything we wanted to do and was fully equipped with everything we needed!

You absolutely cannot beat the location of this home--close to Fairy Glen, Fairy Pools, minutes from Quiraing and Man of Storr. Quiet and private, with rolling hills as your view and a few minute hike down tot he coastline. The house was spotless and comfortable. This was our favorite property that we stayed at during our two week tour of Scotland. Highly recommend, and we would stay here again in a heartbeat!

We absolutely loved staying at The Barn. My family had ample and comfortable room to gather and to retreat. The rooms and spaces were cozy and clean and incredibly family friendly. We made and shared meals together in the well equipped kitchen and meandered the very near shore walk each day of our stay. It was sunny and stunning the entire visit! The property location is spectacular, as we were just “out of the fray” but near enough to enjoy so much that the island invites and highlights. All of my children (three teens!) said the Barn (and Skye) was their most favorite stop and stay along our UK visit. We would highly recommend a stay here.

Beautiful property, so clean and comfortable! Exactly as advertised with nice very responsive owners. Comfortable beds! Note it is a bit of a drive from portree just fyi. Would easily stay again and highly recommend it! Idyllic.

The property is beautiful and very well kept

Nice location with room for some improvements ( shower, silent doors)

Loved this cottage for my family of 5. Clean, comfortable and well located for visiting Skye. Loved the home down to Brothers Point from the front door. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful barn in a beautiful location. The scenery is stunning. Easily accessible and quiet.

Alles war perfekt, die Ausstattung, die Atmosphäre, die Lage, wunderbare Ruhe in der Natur. Ich habe noch nie besser geschlafen, das Schlafzimmer war einfach wunderschön unter dem Dach

This Skye property was one of my favorite VRBOs of all time. We explored Skye during the day and came home to the most cozy house with beautiful views in every direction. It was amazing!

Lovely rental, fantastic views. Beds are great, bathrooms with good water pressure. Comfortable seating. Wifi weak as expected in that area. We had a great stay.

A wonderful experience! The Barn was beautiful and comfortable. The host was very responsive to questions. We didn’t want to leave!

We can’t say enough good things about Cat, Kel and their crew. They helped us make arrangements beyond just lodging and really connected us to the communities on Skye. The Barn is a beautiful modern adaptation of a historic structure and the setting and trail location are spectacular.

Beautiful house the pictures don't do it justice. The setting is amazing. Only difficulty was that I struggled to get in touch with the owner once booked as the contact details on VRBO were not correct and I had no response to messages sent on VRBO. I had to Google the place to get the correct contact details. A confirmation directly from the owners would have been appreciated as otherwise you won't receive any instructions until 72h prior. I didn't want to wait this long to find out if there was a problem as it wouldn't have given us long to deal with any issue. Once I made contact they were very responsive and helpful.

When we first pulled down the driveway we knew we made the right decision. The photos do not do justice for the spectacular view we had for the week. We were greeted with a gift from the host that was just what we needed after a 5 hour drive from the airport. If you are looking for a place that is in the center of skye look no further. When we return we will defintely be seeing if this house is availble for us again.

This place is everything we wished it to be, peaceful and idyllic. Sitting outside in the evening in a private garden listening to the distant waterfall from the stream looking at the amazing night sky full of stars, the local walks were outstanding (go early to avoid the rush we found before 9 was good) and be prepared to pay for parking 🅿️, there’s a local shop 10 mins away in car with everything from bread to paint and we advise you check out Portree theatre to see what’s on, we were able to see Tim Vine live which was brilliantly funny. I could go on and on, simply fantastic!

Unbeatable location to experience the beauty of Skye. Having Brother’s Point as your personal backyard was amazing. Lovely secluded “barn”!
