About this house rental

Built over 200 years ago, the house is the main part of Portree's former grain mill on the edge of the village. Above a burn, flanked by beech trees, it is close to the shore and commands fine views across to the Isle of Raasay. Portree is an ideal base for all Skye's attractions: walking; sailing; climbing; wildlife and bird watching. Equally, you can walk straight from the house into the hills or into the village for a lovely meal. The accommodation is flexible, with two bedrooms (one ensuite) on the ground floor and a studio at the top of the building (with a WC). The house is built on three floors linked by a spiral staircase. The middle floor is a very attractive open plan living area with the original mill stone. It has recently been fully renovated and redecorated, including installation of an eco-friendly heating and ventilation system. There is off-street parking beside the building.

Fully equipped kitchen with a big Rangemaster cooker and oven, very comfortable beds (a very nice 1.80 m wide bed in the master bedroom), 2 bathrooms with a toilet each, plus 1 additional toilet, lovely designed living spaces - we really enjoyed spending a week at the old mill!

A special builng (old mill) at an ideal location, 5 min walking from town center, very tastefull furnished and decorated. Parking available (normally a problem near town center) The kitchen is very well equipped and part of a nice and spacious living room. The kitchen has no extractor hood (at least we couldn't find any extractor), which brings the smell of cooking to the open bedroom upstairs. We found a welcome package. We appreciated the visit by the owners and their tips on activities. Don't forget to take a hike on Raasay and a break at Raasay house. The upstairs bedroom has it's own bathroom with a sink and toilet, shower/bath is at the ground floor.

We had a wonderful stay. The house is in a perfect location for exploring Skye. On a quiet street with a beautiful view yet a short walk into town with a nice trail also a short walk away. The house was one of the most tastefully decorated I’ve ever rented, and the host was helpful and communicative. House was also very well stocked. I recommend this rental most highly.

The Old Mill has been beautifully and thoughtful converted to created an extremely comfortable and cozy place to stay. Furniture, fittings, fixtures, and the kitchen are high quality throughout and the space is well designed to provide a great place to relax, cook, sleep, and generally stay. Location is excellent, right on the edge of Portree so you can walk to the shops, cafés, and sports centre, but in a wooded area next to a stream with superb views. I cannot recommend this property enough, we can't wait to return!

We always travel in a large group and the mill is just right for that. The first floor is a large open space with kitchen, dining area and living room. We have stayed at the mill several times and it has been always great.

We have enjoyed our stay at The Old Mill in Portree. The location is perfectly situated to enable walking everywhere into town. This property is delightful - restored with a sympathetic eye to a modern, high quality unit. It is very spacious, with 2 larger bedrooms and a 3rd room with bunk beds. The bedding is SO comfortable, extra pillows and high quality sheets. There are views from every window. Top notch fittings and the kitchen is large and done to a high spec. The photos don’t do it justice. It would be hard to convey the sense of relaxation and luxury this accommodation provides. Located in a quiet neighborhood, with shops a short walk away. The Scorrabreach Trail is almost on the doorstep. Local restaurants are all within walking distance. We have had a fabulous holiday here on Skye, thank you for your gracious hospitality and spectacular accommodation. Today we hiked the trail from behind the Cuillin Hills Hotel . Beautiful scenery. We had dinner tonight at Dulse & Brose - a wonderful meal. Just around the corner. Thanks again for the gracious hospitality, we hope to stay again, soon.
