Oran Na Mara, Waternish

This 3 bedroom house is what Skye is all about. Oran Na Mara in Waternish is a newer dwelling built with comfort in mind and making the best of it's position, with incredible views to the Outer Hebrides.
The open plan kitchen and dining room give a feeling of space and the main living area is a real delight. Although it has central heating it also has a log burner that provides a sense of cosiness and solace no matter what the weather is doing outside.
Waternish is a well loved and very popular area on Skye.
There are local places to visit and Loch Bay, a Michelin Starred restaurant is 1.5 miles away, next to the oldest pub on Skye, called the Stein Inn.
If you are looking to get away from it all and enjoy a classy living space, look no further.

Well-designed house in a great location with a perfect view
We had a wonderful family stay here: 3 private rooms with separate bathrooms to relax, big kitchen and living room to enjoy family evenings, amazing location to create new memories while hiking, cycling or just enjoying the Skye...

Wonderful house and location
Loved this house. What a lovely property as tidy as tidy could be. Lovely inside and out. Triple pane windows and architecture made the house nearly silent. New, fresh, modern but with a stunning view of the ancient coast and islands. Would stay again for a moth. Property manager/owner was very responsive before and during the stay, This is a premium property and a very quiet corner for the Island. Cannot say enough good things about this place.

Idyllic Stay on the Isle of Skye
We had an amazing four-night stay at this beautiful place! The house was everything we had hoped for. The kitchen was very well equipped, making it easy to prepare meals while enjoying the beautiful views. Each room was spacious and comfortable. Our host was attentive and provided clear instructions for check-in. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend this property to anyone looking to experience the beauty of the Isle of Skye in comfort and style! We can’t wait to return.

Second time we have stayed here - location is amazing …. Scenery on a clear day is incredible. The house is immaculate and has everything you could possibly want. Log fire is a must on blustery days! Highly recommend….

Incredible luxury home with the best views
Gorgeous and magical. The best views. There was a red deer and her two fawns nibbling on the grass right outside our window on our final morning in the house. We felt tucked away in this lovely home. Check-in process was easy and the home was clean and luxurious. Each of the three bedrooms has its own full bathroom. The windows allow all the beauty of skye into the home. We loved it here.

Great house in a beautiful setting
We had 3 days on Skye, this house was a perfect home base for us. The winds could howl outside and we felt peace and comfort inside. Appointed extremely well with thoughtful design and architecture. Beautiful views and a great feeling of isolation

Great Stay
The house is great, the view is amazing. The overall equipment ist on a very high standard. A small problem was solved quick and uncomplicated by the host. The only two small things that kept it from being perfect are a worn out mattress (double bed on the top floor) and a humming noise (some electronic device) that could be annoying at night. We enjoyed our stay very much and would highly recommend it to others!

A slice of heaven
Wow! What an incredible view, and such a beautiful property with all the comforts of home. Like previous reviews have mentioned, Skyeskyns, Stein Inn, and Loch Bay are close by, making it almost unnecessary to leave the local area. We will definitely treasure our memories of this beautiful place. Thank you very much!

A beautiful property in a beautiful area
A gorgeous house that was so comfortable with everything you could wish for (except a hairdryer - a small point however) The views are stunning and the property is ideally situated for the Stein Inn and Loch Bay restaurant, both highly recommended. Make sure you book the restaurant WELL in advance, the next booking when we were there was in about four weeks time Thank you for a great stay on Skye!

Best ever!!!
If you really want to experience Skye, this is the place! The house and view are incredible. If I could move, this is where I’d go. Everything we wanted to do, we did from this location. We did day trips and it was always wonderful to come home to our special piece of Skye, even for the few nights we were there. Go to the Yurt for coffee and pastry. Stop by and tour Skye Skins and then go upstairs and buy one!!!! Can’t say enough about the home and location!

Wonderful house, fantastic views
We absolutely loved our stay here! The house was beautiful, clean and comfy, a perfect place for a family of 5 adults. The view, even when the weather was overcast, was sensational. Would love to return someday.

I only wish I had more time.,.
This rental was beautiful, modern, and clean. I only wish we had more time to enjoy it. The only piece of feedback I have is that we needed a fan. We were only there for two nights, so didn’t ask the host, but I’m sure if we did it would have been supplied. Thanks for a beautiful stay!
