Visit the Isle of Skye
Beauty, natural calm and a dramatic landscape under a vibrant sky... Scotland's largest island, the Isle of Skye, is something truly special. A visit here will leave you relaxed & energised - an exciting holiday full of wonderful discoveries awaits!

What is there to do on the Isle of Skye? Sure enough, Skye is no Gran Canaria, and why should it be! :) Nevertheless, you can pack your stay with oodles of activities if you so choose, and 5 days will simply fly by! There are numerous picturesque villages to visit, as well as Skye's pretty capital of Portree. When you're ready to leave it all behind (& enjoy some stunning scenery at the same time), head to the Cuillin Range, a paradise for hikers & climbers. What's more, Skye also has amazing coastal walks to enjoy: Visit the extremely photogenic Kilt Rock, enjoy amazing views at the Old Man of Storr and take a trip out to the famous lighthouse at Neist Point. On your last day, treat yourself to something a little bit different: A visit (and tasting) at the Talisker Distillery!

For your stay, we have found you a fab-tabulous cottage in the heart of this magnificent isle. Brae Cottage is located within easy reach of Dunvegan Castle and the Giant Angus Macaskill Museum, as well as the delights of Lonmore. It consistently receives the highest ratings from its guests for its warm welcome, comfortable rooms & handy location.

How to get to the Isle of Skye: Skye is connected to the Scottish mainland by a bridge, so you can simply drive across. If you'd rather not take the car, you can also catch a bus or take the ferry. If you're not in a hurry, taking the "Kyle Line" from Inverness to Kyle of Lochalsh, and then the bus to Skye is a particularly scenic way of getting there.
