Beautiful location!

Wonderful setting, beautiful views. Not near grocery so come well stocked. Lovely coffee yurt a couple miles down the road. The house was as-advertised and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Only hiccup was that we never received check-in instructions or an access code despite leaving emails and a voicemail 2 days in advance…so we drove 4 hours to a locked house on a weekend. Thankfully someone picked up when we called from the house and gave us the access code. I’m sure this was not a typical situation but just make sure you receive check-im instructions before make the drive. The property rental company never responded to our email about it.

Spectacular - Just as advertised!

Tigh Bata was an amazing gem. It was spacious on the inside with awesome views outside. The home was well equipped with toiletries and everything.needed for meals for our large family. Access was easy and appreciated given the remote location. And the staff was friendly and attentive. 5 Stars in every respect!

Gorgeous views

Wow, what an amazing time for our family of two adults and two children! Being at the end of the earth with the wind and the sea, farms and cows to the side- it was just such a beautiful experience that words can't express it. We spent part of the time out exploring the hikes and Portree and part of the time just staying in playing board games and enjoying the house. We would love to return should we visit Scotland again.

We loved staying at Tigh Bata

The house is perfect for two families traveling together. It’s clean, laid out well, and the common spaces are large and it’s an enjoyable house to spend time together. Hard to beat the view too! There is a lengthy drive to reach the most popular sites. We didn’t mind remote at all.

Beautiful house in a beautiful setting!

Traveled to Skye with a group of 9 and Tigh Bata was just perfect. It is very remote (a good thing, IMO) but Google Maps delivered us to front door without any problems. The setting is just breathtaking - right on a a rocky coast of the loch/bay with wide tidal swings. The house, itself, is impeccably clean and seems relatively new with a very modern kitchen. Nice TV in living room and bedrooms but I don't believe we ever turned them on. I enjoy birdwatching and loved sitting on the deck watching Northern Gannets diving into the bay. We all hope to return sometime.
