“Lovely cottage overlooking the water. For the kids the wild rabbits in the garden were fun while the farmer let two young sheep stay in the garden to be hugged. (He asked us parents first ;-). The place was clean, the kitchen had all we needed.”

Welcome to my Grandparents House
The Old Crofthouse, Kingsburgh is perfectly situated on the banks of Loch Snizort 15 minutes north of Portree and 10 minutes away from the Ferry Terminal in Uig
The cottage was built in 1922 by my grandfather and his brothers, so the recent renovation has really been a labour of love in terms of continuing our family's connection with the beautiful township of Kingsburgh.
Built in 1922 by my Grandfather Alexander Mackay, the house has been lovingly renovated and is the perfect base for exploring the island.
Kingsburgh is an historic township that is most well known for its connection with the 1745 Jacobite Rebellion, when Bonnie Prince Charlie was hidden at Kingsburgh House by Flora Macdonald following his escape from Uist.
Since then it has remained a very special corner of Skye due to its unique position on the banks of Loch Snizort, which allows superb views south to the Cuillin
