By the time I arrived at the Duncraig Castle the sun was in probably the worst position for photography. There was no chance to photograph the castle from the ground as there was too much sun glare everywhere, so I brought my drone up in the air and tried to get the sun on my back. It worked and here is my favourite result. This spectacular Highland castle was built in 1866 located in beautiful wooded grounds in a stunning coastal setting overlooking Plockton, Loch Carron and the Applecross Peninsula. It is just about to open again for the public after a long extensive renovation, so make sure you stop by if you in the area.

"After a few issues with the heating (which were resolved by host quickly), we really enjoyed our stay in this traditional cottage. Warm, comfortable, spacious, good views to Skye, host very responsive and helpful."

"We booked this property for our three day trip to Isle of Skye and were blown away. Easily the best place we stayed during our 9 days around Scotland. The property was in an absolutely stunning location with unobstructed waterfront views, clean, well cared for, and within walking distance to restaurants, cafes, and a grocery store in Broadford. Plenty of space for car parking as well. The hosts were friendly and communicated well! Would highly recommend!"

5/5 Excellent

"We had a lovely overnight stay and would definitely return. Hotel was easy to find and within minutes of the Skye Road bridge. Hotel emailed check in details and recommendations for restaurants to try for dinner. This was perfect for us very useful. Our room was lovely, comfortable and clean and overlooking the loch/sea. Bathroom was clean and served its purpose, lovely thick bath towels and some toiletries included. Breakfast was lovely next day. A traditional Scottish breakfast plus all the continental choices you could want including fresh fruit, jams, cereals, fresh juices, toast etc. served in a large dining room again overlooking the grounds and sea. The evening before we enjoyed a lovely time playing a board game supplied by the hosts in the adjoining lounge. There were really comfy sofas and chairs, complete with a small highland cow seated on a chair! Hosts were lovely and saw that the guests were very well catered for. "
