Easter in Skye
 
We are hoping to spend a week in Skye and would welcome advice on where to stay. Have two teenagers so need a TV I'm afraid. Would love to be by the sea to watch otters and seals and walk for miles...the TV will be the reward each night!

Thanks for this tod, I am following up some numbers and waiting for replies. Unfortunatly the croft is no longer a holiday let. Thinking that a cottage would be best idea to suit our needs

Depending on budget, I'd have a look at the Eilean Iarmain, the Greshornish or the Dancing Dolphins
