Tigh Phadraig Cottage Elgol Isle of Skye, Scotland

Tigh Phadraig Cottage Elgol Isle of Skye Family friendly Pet/Dog Friendly Holiday Cottage for romantic breaks in Elgol Isle of Skye, The Highlands, Scotland

Your drive to Tigh Phadraig takes you along one of the most spectacular and scenic roads in the whole of Scotland. Once out of Broadford, and onto the Strathaird peninsula, you pass the old ruined church of Cill Chriosd on the way to the wee village of Torrin. It is then the imposing and majestic Bla Bheinn looms into full view. Around Loch Slapin and on up the ever increasingly winding single track road. You eventually arrive at Elgol, a small fishing and crofting hamlet right at the end of the peninsula

Down at the shore there is a small harbour where the local fishing boats land their catches of lobster, prawns & crabs daily. There are also fantastic views of the Cuillins across Loch Scavaig.
Boat trips on board the Misty Isle run daily from the harbour into Lock Coruisk at the foot of the Cuillins. You will also find trips available to the small isles and beyond.

There are many beautiful and some more challenging walks you can take from the doorstep where you may be fortunate enough to glimpse some our stunning wildlife. Red deer, golden eagle, otter and dolphin to name but a few. Whatever the weather is outside you should be safe in the knowledge that when you return to your cottage a warm and inviting welcome awaits you.

Tigh Phadraig combines the traditional charm of a 'Black House' dwelling with all modern comforts. Sleeping up to four people with 2 in a curtained box bed downstairs and 2 more in single beds up in the gallery. There is an iron stove nestled beneath the cottage's thatched roof and this is complimented by a modern fitted kitchen and underfloor heating.

As we are pet friendly the latter is ideal for your favourite dog to make themselves comfortable after that long walk! There is even plenty of comfortable seating for you!

The Isle of Skye is becoming ever more popular for weddings and elopements, particularly at Loch Coruisk. We would be more than happy to accommodate your honeymoon stay and should some of your guests want to stay locally we may be able to offer suggestions.
