The stay

A quiet base, kept simple and personal

Carrick is a small house at Black Park in Broadford. Three rooms, breakfast in the dining room, somewhere to leave the car and a garden to sit in when the evening is kind.

  • Three rooms, three arrangements

    One double and two twins — each with its own bathroom, so nothing is shared.

  • Breakfast in the dining room

    Full cooked, continental and vegetarian breakfasts are offered.

  • Private off-road parking

    Leave the car off the road at the house for the length of your stay.

  • Garden, stream and conservatory

    A generous garden with a stream running through it, and a conservatory for the rain.

  • English, Dutch and German

    Ask your questions in whichever of the three feels easiest.

  • Advice from the hosts

    Riet and Piet know the island well and are glad to help you plan your days.

The rooms

Three rooms to choose between

Your hosts

Riet and Piet, and a touch of Dutch

Carrick is looked after by Riet and Piet, and guests are received the way you would hope to be received in someone’s house.

That means an actual conversation when you arrive rather than a key in a box, and a hand with the map when the weather turns. Dutch, German and English are all spoken here, so you can ask your questions in whichever language comes most easily.

It is a small house with three rooms, which is rather the point. There is time to tell you where the good walk is, and time to hear how it went.

Breakfast

Breakfast, the way you want it

Full cooked, continental and vegetarian breakfasts are offered, served in the dining room.

  • Choice one

    Full cooked

    A full cooked breakfast at the table, for the mornings that begin with a long walk.

  • Choice two

    Continental

    Lighter and quicker, for an early start along the coast.

  • Choice three

    Vegetarian

    A vegetarian breakfast, prepared with the same care as the rest.

Mention which you would prefer, along with any dietary requirements, when you enquire.

Garden & conservatory

Somewhere to sit, in any weather

The garden is generous by island standards, with a stream running through it and views out over the bay. When Skye does what Skye does, the conservatory is the place to be.

Explore Skye

Broadford is a good place to start from

Carrick sits quietly at Black Park, a few minutes walk from Broadford, with private off-road parking at the house — a base for exploring Skye.

Walks and the coast

Ask Riet and Piet what suits the forecast and your legs. They will tell you which path is worth the drive that day, which one is better after rain, and where to turn back if the cloud comes down.

Days out by car

Skye is bigger than the map suggests and the single-track sections take their time. Your hosts are happy to help you order the week so you are not crossing the island twice in a day.

Boats, wildlife and the water

The bay is part of daily life here. If you would like to be out on the water or simply want to know where to stand and watch it, ask when you arrive.

Eating in the village

Ask Riet and Piet where to eat and where to pick up the day’s supplies. They will tell you what is open, which is the useful part in the quieter months.
