Self check-in

Check yourself in with the lockbox.
A renovated 19th century crofter’s house perched on the cliffs of the Isle of Skye, Milovaig house has been lovingly restored to take advantage of the breathtaking sea loch views. With minimalist Nordic interiors that complement the building’s heritage, Milovaig House is a serene retreat where it’s all too easy to sit, watch, and listen to the ever-changing surrounding landscape.

The space
The stunning views of Loch Pooltiel can be seen from every room in the house and on one side are Skye’s tallest sea cliffs with the outer Hebrides on the horizon. Eagle-eyed guests will spot whales, dolphins, seals and sea eagles all from the house and the absence of light pollution makes way for a mesmerising starry night sky. A highlight of Milovaig House are the Northern Lights that often make an appearance during the winter months.

Kitchen, Living & Dining Areas:

Downstairs, the sun room offers floor-to-ceiling glass doors, perfect for relaxing by the log burner and watching the incredible landscape in front of you. There is a further snug area with TV and a sofa bed that can sleep two small children or one adult on request. Off the sun room is the dining room, with a double-sided log burner, which can comfortably seat six. The sleek kitchen has everything you need to cook up the catch of the day from the local fishermen.

The Bedrooms:

Upstairs is one King size room and a twin/super-King room with more stunning views, ensuring a peaceful night with just the ocean as a soundtrack. The bathroom features a roll top bathtub and separate shower and is shared between the two bedrooms.

Outside:

A garden surrounds the house and opens up to the wild landscape around. The Swedish-style wood-burning hot tub, fire pit and decking is an amazing addition to this unique property.

Milovaig House sits on working croft land, so expect the farmer to bring his sheep most days.

My work: Sand and Stone Escapes
Speaks English
Hi, I'm Ben and I am based in the Cotswolds, England. Ever since I was a young boy, my family have been regular visitors to Cornwall and Devon. I now own a small travel company called Sand and Stone Escapes (formerly Beachspoke) that represents a collection of uniquely curated holiday homes inspired by our love of travel and design. Each one reflects the amazing locations in which they reside and have been built and designed either by me, my mother or a like-minded owner we represent. A short break is rare for most these days, but when given the chance, my favourite thing to do is to hop in the car to Cornwall with my wife and our friendly Greek mongrel, Tiko, for a few days of walks by the sea, amazing food in the local restaurants and cosy nights in with a movie and a glass of wine. We believe a holiday home should have all the perks of a small boutique hotel and have ensured that all the properties are equipped with small luxuries from fluffy bathrobes to a bottle of sparkling wine or Champagne in the fridge for your arrival. We are always on hand to assist should you need but would never disturb you otherwise. We hope you enjoy these hideaways and the places where they reside as much as we do. Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions about any of the properties or the locations, we are always happy to help!
