We had an excellent stay at this cabin on the Isle of Skye. It was incredibly warm and cosy, making it the perfect retreat after a day of exploring. The views across the water were absolutely stunning – a true highlight of the stay. Highly recommend this peaceful getaway for anyone looking to unwind in nature!

This exquisite property sits overlooking the shore at Lower Breakish, Isle of Skye. We enjoyed the Adirondack Chairs overlooking the water and the modern, natural decor was so well done that I took pictures to incorporate into my new house. The copper soaking tub was a hit as was the projection screen for late night movies. Everything we needed was there, from wine & whiskey glasses to a French Press for morning coffee or tea. Can you tell? I was truly impressed.

As the kids are with the grand parents, i decided to take wife away for a night. i messaged Danni first as we had the dog and they did not mention pet friendly. the response was perfect. Told me thats not normally the pet friendly one but as long as we kept toby off the soft furnishings it would be fine.
Upon arrival i parked the car within 6ft of the door so easy if you have lots of bags. the cabin was huge for 2 but was amazing, from the window that turns into a projector screen ti the roll top bath. Having lived on skye 20 years ago i have always loved the views but ardcana has captured it perfectly from the dining table with the picture window to the bedrooms view that you can gaze across the water whilst falling asleep.
pricing is spot on for what you get and would highly recommend this as your next stay.
only negative i have is the was no guest info, i may of missed this in the emails but would be good to have some info on how the host likes the place left. available when you arrive.

The Loft at Ardcana is so awesome. The living and dining area are so comfortable and spacious. The cookware are in good condition that we enjoyed cooking there very much. The owner has good taste of the interior design. Plus, the linens, amenities and towels are so comfortable and full of favours. The Loft would be a core reason that we would re-visit Highland.

We loved our stay. The home was clean and well taken care of. The views and the peace & quiet were incredible. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful - they even setup a travel crib for our infant daughter. We’ll definitely stay again.

We loved our stay here. The picture window looking over the water was beautiful. The cabin was wonderfully simple and yet held all we needed. I had tried to book it for 4 nights but it was only available for 2 when we were there. I would have gladly booked it for all 4 and if we ever return to Skye we will definitely look ahead of time to book all our nights here again. Loved its eco friendliness as well!

This was a dream to stay here I could have stayed a month here and never leave this beautiful space. Every detail in design and function was thoughtfully crafted. This was my favorite place on my trip to Scotland d. It is highly recommended and I dream of coming back ps the soaps and lotions are awesome

This a beautiful location right near the ocean. We could sit on the porch and watch the sunset over the mountains and ocean. The apartment was well stocked and smelled amazing. We LOVED the bathroom. Perfect romantic getaway!!!

A cabin style with full kitchen. We enjoyed the stay but felt it’s overpriced. There’s nothing around the area and not walking distance to get your groceries. The cabin does not have fantastic view but its very quiet despite also close to the other 2 cabins. We had difficulties checking in as the check in email did not reach us prior arrival.

Ardcana is beyond excellent. We stayed in the Darach cabin and it was absolute perfection. Every single detail of the space is beautiful. We loved it and wished we could have stayed longer. If we’re ever back on the aisle of Skye, we’ll definitely be staying there.

Hands down, the most beautiful place we've stayed in some time. Pictures do not do it justice. The view is spectacular, furnishings are so well appointed, the tub is to die for, heated flooring - just wonderful stay. Coffee and tea supplied and a nice welcome gift of wine greeted us upon arrival. Host quick to respond and I wish we could have stayed one more night.

This was a phenomenal property - stunningly modern and high-tech with bright light and beautiful views. We loved the extra touches - local art, pottery, fabrics and scents really made our stay that much more special! One small thing was that self check-in instructions should be made clear in advance of arrival - there were none listed, though we figured it out in short order. We will definitely be returning at some point in the future!

Danni was helpful and responsive, as was everyone else that we met. The property has a fantastic view and the ability to enjoy the outdoors. Lots of terrific amenities and the fresh flowers were a lovely touch. Well-outfitted kitchen too.

The location and property were so beautiful and really made our holiday stay perfect. The owners thought of almost anything one could want for, and they even added in some nice welcome items that really demonstrated care and concern. Location was idyllic, with beautiful sunrise/sunset walks right beyond the door. And, they even provided books/guides for more on the island. If you have a plug, they have an outlet nearby, including USB. The pictures of the place match the reality. A tranquil oasis and unique stay. My spouse and I had the ideal Isle of Skye experience here, thank you!

The Ardcana was unbelievably awesome! Its self catering, but leaves you with a full kitchen, pots and pans, silverwear, plates etc. Youll probably want the kitchen too because in my opinion, restaraunts are pricey for what you get here, but most of all the view from the cabin is a 10/10 and you should enjoy a nice meal here. Cabin was extremely nice, new and modern, while still having a good rustic feel. Weve already planned how well want to come back soon amd spend more nights here!

Love the design of the property. I advise to get their before dark as its hard to find in the dark. We loved the accommodations and the cabin was very unique. The quality of the buildout was amazing and well done. The views breath taking.

We stayed in the Luxury Apartment, Ensuite, Sea View for 3 nights (Dec 21-24). The host, Danni, was extremely responsive and helpful with information regarding the property, where to park, how to use the projector, etc.
The property itself is situated in a remote(ish) area which allows for privacy and solitude. The views/landscape are breathtaking. Even in the bitter cold, we enjoyed the visit and hike to Aird of Sleat.
The amenities in the suite were amazing/modern and very well thought out. The property has under floor heating, a beautiful stand alone tub (but I think that is only in the luxury cabin), a projector and screen to watch shows/tv, a very modern kitchen with plenty of cookware to make a meal, and a very comfortable bed with a great duvet.
Additionally, there is a great coffee place nearby, the coffee bothy, offering fantastic coffee and delectable/unique cakes), and a nice pub called Bar Am Praban located in Hotel Eilean Iarmain which offered a great/hearty meal (thank you for that recommendation Danni). There are additional restaurants nearby (like the Red Skye Restaurant and Claymore Bar and Restaurant) but sadly they were not open.
The only small thing I would request is to look into is the water pressure in the shower, and the water for the tub, which did not stay hot to fill it.
Overall, my partner and I will definitely be coming back to this hidden and wonderful gem. Thank you Danni for a great stay!

Property is very high spec and luxury however no instructions on how to work the high tech appliances and no welcome folder or information. Was met by the cleaning lady who said don’t ask me how anything works I don’t have a clue!

A jewel in the midst of the choices on Skye. Beautiful design. Ultra modern. Very well equipped in all rooms, kitchen specifically. New model Nespresso - check ahead if you should bring your own coffee pods. Our apartment had the large copper tub. Beware that you'll run the tank out if you fill it and your partner will have a cold shower! One problem was resolved in a reasonable time and left us happy with the response. 2 other cottages on the same site but well situated so lots of privacy and good views of ocean and entrance mountains. Might want to ask for a tutorial upon arrival as there are lots of electronics that you can live without but nice to have working if you know how to use them. Our highest rating! Congratulations to the people behind this project - it is certainly in a class of its own.

Loved everything about this property! The design and the decor were top notch and the unit was so clean. We loved being able to cook a meal and relax as if we were at home—honestly could hole up in this place for a week we loved it so much. The views are peaceful and we were even treated to a flock of sheep frolicking through the yard in the morning. Highly recommend.

We’ve travelled a lot during lock down, some nregular hotels, some high end for special treats - our stay at Ardcana was without doubt the best of any of these.
The space is incredible. Attention to detail is evident everywhere. Park right outside and take in the views across the water - outside seating around the sculptural fire pit ( logs and kindling provided ) covered patio with more seating - kitchen full to the brim of every mod con you might need - including a real Christmas tree for our stay.
Bedroom is beautifully lit - soft and comfortable but with thoughtful nods to where you are so a rugged wooden headboard - oh and what appears like a lack of tv turns out to be the flick of a switch - screen down and access to a huge projector tv with Netflix and Prime.
Bathroom beyond expectation - huge copper tub to soak the day away ( I didn’t get a look in ) underfloor heating piping hot water - full bottles of all local small etc.
Don’t pack fudge whisky or gin - you’ll find them waiting for you as a welcome !
If this all sounds a bit gushy ? It isn’t. This place and the hosts ( easily contactable ) have knocked it out of the park. Beautiful from the outside as well as in - and in some of the most stunning scenery in the world.
We will be back - even if it’s just to laze in the bath and sink into the bed watching tv and eating fudge.

The property itself was wonderful, it has been finished very nicely and the view is top notch however there were a few down points I would have hoped for better for the price. The room had no wifi, air conditioning or a fan in the summer heat and the bathroom door did not close. There was also a number of cleaning products left around the room and a vacuum cleaner left by the front door. These are all minor point which I was happy to overlook. The communication and check in/out was below par and for the price needed improvement. With no prior communication the check in was confusing. After arriving there was no reception area or staff around to speak to and after two phone calls to the number found online I received no further information. 10 minutes after I sent a text messaged I received a reply saying the room was open, nothing further.

Cabin was excellent. Fantastic attention to detail. The view would have been worth the money alone.
Will definitely be back.

We stayed at Ardcana for 1 night whilst on a road trip, I wish we were able to stay longer. Ardcana consists of 2 modern cabins - the cabin itself was amazing, very modern and finished to an extremely high standard which includes a lounge area with sofa TV and coffee table; kitchen with full size oven, hob and sink etc; bedroom with double bed, and storage; and a full size bathroom with an amazing shower and facilities. The cabin has electronic Velux windows, and electronic Somfy blinds/window coverings, along with underfloor heating and solar panels.
The cabin is situated beautifully, facing over the waters of Skye.
I would definitely recommend a stay at Ardcana, we will definitely be back!
