    Great location for attending the Skye Live Festival. Aaron’s Bothy is small but very well equipped. Hector and Julie had made sure that we had everything we needed from fresh bread to pasta sauce which was a lovely surprise.

Aaron’s bothy is a chalet located in the village of Portree. The bothy is in a quiet residential area 10 min walk from village. The bothy is self contained and has seating outside for relaxing after a long day sightseeing. Aaron’s bothy is a relaxed and peaceful home away from home whilst being close enough to village life, shops ,pubs and some amazing restaurants. You will find everything you need to make your trip relaxing. From Outdoor furniture to relaxing night in front of the TV .
We are so glad you decided to book your getaway with us. We are a husband and wife team Hector loves meeting new people and always has lots to say. We live in the house beside the bothy and enjoy seeing people discover our amazing island.
Portree village is in walking distance and you will find local shops, bars and restaurants all of which are worth a visit. Skye has some of the most amazing scenery in Scotland( if not the world) from the old man of the Storr to the Fairy pools ,Skye however is a large and varied island which means the best way to travel is by car .
