Response from the manager Thank you for sharing such incredible feedback with us, we couldn't be happier that you had such a wonderful experience at Askival and in Skye! We are so pleased to hear that the property made up for the bad weather during your stay, there is little better than being in a comfy house whilst still enjoying the beautiful scene outside! We are sorry we have spoiled other rentals for you, but you can always come back and enjoy Askival again, we would love to have you back!
