Book now

The owners of Camus Cottage will set out a dog bed, bowls, a crate and blankets if you ask ahead, which says everything about how the two dogs on this booking will be received. The cottage is a croft home for four at Camuscross on Skye's Sleat peninsula, dog friendly to its bones, with an enclosed lawned garden and the bay a minute down the single track road.

A porch takes the boots and holds the washing machine, the kitchen diner handles the meals, and the lounge keeps a traditional wood burner for the evenings. A king size room and a twin share a bathroom with both bath and separate shower, and a welcome pack meets you at the door. Outside, the garden is mainly lawn with a seating area and charcoal BBQ, sized for children and dogs together.

Sleat is the green, gentle end of Skye, and Camuscross is its slow lane: a township looped by a single track lane, small secluded bays for the dogs' morning swim, a pier, an art gallery, and a celebrated bar with a fire half a mile away pouring Gaelic whisky.

The rest of Sleat unfurls south towards the Armadale ferry and north towards the mountains, with the Cuillin and the island's famous sights inside day trip reach. Across the water, the Knoydart and Morar coasts hold some of Britain's finest sand for the day you take the dogs over.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is Camus Cottage dog friendly?

    Camus Cottage is genuinely dog friendly — up to two dogs are welcome, and the owners can set out a dog bed, bowls, a crate and blankets if you ask ahead. The cottage has an enclosed lawned garden, and the bay is just a minute's walk down the single track road, so dogs have space to stretch out both inside and out.

  • Are dogs allowed at Camus Cottage year round?

    The listing doesn't specify seasonal restrictions on dogs, but it's worth contacting the owners directly to confirm availability and any conditions for your dates. Given how well set up the cottage is for canine guests, it's clearly a core part of what they offer rather than an afterthought.

  • What should I know before visiting Camus Cottage with my dog?

    The cottage accepts a maximum of two dogs, so it's worth confirming your numbers when you book. If you'd like dog equipment provided — bed, bowls, crate or blankets — just request it ahead of arrival, as the owners are happy to set these out for you. The enclosed garden and nearby bays make it a practical as well as a welcoming base, and there's plenty of walking territory across the Sleat peninsula and beyond.
