    Beautiful stay. The home was so comfy and we appreciated the food basket gifted at arrival. The views were spectacular and there was a small swing set and rock wall outdoors that our boys loved. Short drive to Portree for groceries or eating out....

Nigel
The Lodge in the Loch has to be the most stunning location on Skye. The waters of Storr lochs, literally lap, gently against the walls of this historic wee Lodge. Views to the Iconic Old Man of Storr across the lochs, will leave you breathless, there is no better view of this Iconic Skye landscape or any property closer to the water's edge. Virtually every room boasts views of The Old Man or of the loch & the garden slopes down right into the loch.
Hello, we are Nigel and India (my daughter), we love to run our small luxury property business in the Hebrides! It is a small family business, and we are helped by amazing friends and staff. We keep it small so we can concentrate on quality and great customer service with all the luxury and attention to detail you would expect. We have been offering award winning accommodation since the last century. We love meeting people and welcoming people to or beautiful Islands and properties on both Skye & Lewis.
The Lodge in the Loch sits on banks of Storr Loch’s, nestled into the Trotternish ridge, below the most iconic Skye landmark, the Old Man of Storr. It has the best trout fishing in the UK (fly only). You can hire a boat, walk to Bonnie Prince Charlie’s cave, or down to the bay to look for dinosaur fossils! A walk to the Storr is an unforgettable experience. We are just a few minute’s drive from Portree, the capital of the island, you can find arts and crafts, banks and P.O. There are renowned eateries offering the best seafood! The apartment sits on the Trotternish Ridge, a 20 mile landslip with stunning rock formations, this offers fabulous walks along its length. Otters and eagles can be regularly seen from the windows, garden and surrounding areas
