Na een zeer natte dag en enkele hikes kwamen we aan in dit prachtig huis. Door de houtkachel was het snel heerlijk warm en zijn onze kleren snel gedroogd. De keuken is geweldig, er stond zelfs verse melk op ons te wachten in de koelkast (voor bij de thee/koffie). De lakens waren perfect wit en de handdoeken superzacht. Heel mooi ingericht, een verborgen parel op het eiland!

The house is fabulous. Off road parking was very welcome. The owners are lovely and very accommodating. The walks and local views are stunning, and local shops are very handy.
The local roads are awful, tyre and suspension killers but no reflection on Blossom Folly.

Comfortable, cosy, good location. Felt like a home from home. Well equipped kitchen. The bed was so Comfortable. Great bath. Little additional extras were lovely...milk in the fridge, chilled bottle of cava, toiletries.
The signal on the TV wasn't good but it meant we talked to each other instead!

Lovely little cottage, bright and cheerily decorated. The location was 10 minutes off the main road on Skye, and was easy to find. So many lovely amazing nature walks right off the property with incredible views of the mountains, water, and windmills. There is a laundry machine and dishwasher. The information book was excellent - filled with lots of great Skye references and links. Kati was very responsive to all texts and quickly responded to any concerns we had.
No serious issues. It was a wonderful stay.

Very quiet and clean. Lovely spot out of the way, but close to the the small town of Dunvegan.
Instructions to get to the property were a bit vague. Was ok if your navigation system sent you on the right road, however we can a different way.
The road to the property is quite rough.

Beautifull Cottage! We had a great stay. Cottage is really Nice and fulltime equiped. Good location to explore the island! We were sad to leave

Location was superb and the facilities excellent. Very Clean, tastefully decorated and all "mod cons"
Road had a few pot holes but this is not the owners fault - so drive slowly and take your time! Directions could have been a little clearer - for example simply inserting Blossom Folly is about 1 mile down the road after the turn off opposite the yellow house

So adorable and modern. Very private.
Just a remote area snaffu of a water main break. Nothing you can do about that and the owner communicated well.

I was here for work and it was ideal for my needs. it was great location near my jobs. The stay was co for table with amazing facilities such as the log fire. The property has been decorated to the highest of spec and you can tell the owner has taken great care.
The log burner was a massive bonus for me but as I was working away from home the washing machine and dryer were great.

Quiet area that wasn't too remote but had a remote feel to it. Very easy to get to a number of places around Skye. Kitchen fairly well equipped. Wood burner an absolute bonus. Nice bathroom. Comfortable bed.
A couple more kitchen/ cooking items would have been great but that's mostly because we love to cook at home.

Blossom Folly was a lovely self-catering cottage with an ‘authentic’ feel that fits with its surround, but with modern amenities. It is beautifully situated in a wooded area where the owners are planting trees to keep with nature. Even though it was hidden away, it was easy to find. The decor is sharp and shows an artistic flair, including a Banksy decal in the bathroom. Lots of light, comfy beds, well-appointed kitchen.
Honestly can’t think of a thing I would change. The only guidance I would provide is, if you are arriving on a Sunday, make sure you stock up on supplies before you arrive on Skye. And for major shopping, do it just before or after the bridge to Skye. (That guidance was given by the cottage owners as well, but we read it too late!)

I booked this for my daughter and son in law who tell me it was amazing and said “We had a great 3 nights there, had everything we needed- the kitchen was fully equipped and we made full use of the washing machine and dryer!
The log fire was super cosy too! Also the prosecco was a lovely touch ☺️” and “If the weather was better we’d have definitely made use of the deck area as well.”

Beautiful house, tastefully and practically furnished. We really appreciated sitting by the fireplace. We were soaked and frozen from traveling on motorcycles. The electric floor heating in the bathroom was also bright. Thank you and we recommend to everyone.

This is perhaps the best cottage i've had the pleasure of staying at! Impeccably clean home with careful attention to detail. The location is ideal and close to all of the best sights on the Isle. I spent the holiday with my partner walking and was always content to return to Blossom Folly for a home cooked dinner and relaxation. The cottage also has beautiful sky lights, a wood burning fireplace, Chromecast for watching films directly from any device and a small collection of books and films available. The kitchen is well equipped and all appliances are modern and easy to use. Great location which I hope to visit again!
The area around Blossom Folly has no mobile signal for my carrier and roaming does not seem to work either. No big deal at all and obviously no fault to Blossom Folly. I actually enjoyed being disconnected for most of the day and Blossom Folly has strong wifi.

The house is well equipped and comfortable. There was a lovely welcome pack on arrival, including fresh milk and the log burner already laid. The owner responded very quickly when we had an issue with the hot water.
The fact that it is tucked away with no view and was, we think, quite expensive.

Very warm, clean and spacious. Short from the front door, close to Dunvegan for facilities and the Castle.
