Bothies were initially developed as a basic shelter to protect weary travelers from the elements. The newly built cabin, however, is far from that. With a light, spacious kitchen, a pillowy soft, king-size, bed, study and dining area, all topped off with vaulted ceilings, it’s anything but. Breakfast is on the house thanks to a starter pack of goodies you’ll find in the pantry—bread, butter, milk—and fluffy sheepskin rugs and textures ensure you’ll feel right at home. From the outside, you can see all the way along Trotternish Ridge, from Quiraing up to Staffin Bay. Some guests have been fortunate enough to view the northern lights while on the deck. The ratings for this Airbnb are impressive. It’s maintained a five-star rating with 465 reviews, putting it in the top one percent of homes on the platform—an unusual feat.
