Description from owner

Description

This affordable accommodation is a first floor flat that is cosy and homely. It commands spectacular views across the glen to the mountains and many waterfalls. Watch the buzzard soar past your window as it hunts its prey and the livestock grazing peacefully in the hills around you.

It is set along from the mystical Fairy Glen renowned for its fantastical geology with hundreds of little conical hills, little lochs and miniature trees where the Fairys are said to inhabit. All this on your doorstep and more.

The Fairy Glen is a remote area above the bay of Uig in the North end of the Isle of Skye.

Getting around

A car is essential for sightseeing around Skye as the local bus service is unfortunately quite infrequent and disjointed. There are however a few bus tours that run to most of the popular sights and might be of interest if you would like a break from driving on the single track roads.

Interaction with guest

I currently reside in the downstairs accommodation where you can find me most evenings if you have any questions. Please knock on the outside door at the back.
