Heron's Rest

Portree, Northern Scotland

Heron's Rest
Heron's Rest is a cottage for two in Portree, on the Isle of Skye, making it a fitting base for a couple keen to explore this part of Northern Scotland. It's a simple, low-key spot without listed facilities on the doorstep, so it suits those happy to travel a little to reach shops, cafes and other amenities.

The Giant Angus MacAskill Museum is the nearest named attraction, around 5.1 miles away, giving you a reason to venture out and see more of the area. With no train station or beach listed nearby, this is best suited to those exploring Skye by car and happy with a quieter base to return to at the end of the day.
