DUNVEGAN, ISLE OF SKYE

Portree 22 miles.

The village of Dunvegan is set in the north west of Skye and contains a mixture of traditional stone and modern houses along with a selection of shops and hotels. About a mile from the village is Dunvegan Castle, home to the Clan Macleod, who have continuously occupied the castle since the 13th Century, and are said to have had dealings with the "wee folk" at the Fairy Bridge. Also in the area are the Cuillin Mountains with their fantastic rock forms and pinnacles, which many climbers would put at the top of their list. Other attractions on the Isle are plentiful - the Aros Centre is well worth a visit with its programme of concerts, theatre and cinema, or visit Portree, the island's only town, set around its natural harbour, which boasts an excellent range of shops, hotels and restaurants.

Previous Visitors' Comments
Hillside is a lovely cosy cottage with mountain views and in a good location. The owner was very fiendly and the 'welcome pack' and fresh flowers a nice touch. I really enjoyed the peace and quiet that this cottage provides and would like to return.

The property was located in an ideal place for walking and sightseeing in north Skye. The walks covered were from easy to strenuous but very rewarding in the views. The owners were very friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed out stay very much and hope to return.
