The Hebrides / Skye / Isle of Skye region
From the lush green farmlands of the Borders to the rugged landscapes of the Highlands, the Scots are proud of their land and identity. The beautiful countryside of Dumfries and Galloway is littered with fortresses and strongholds, testimony to its dramatic history. Moving north, the Highlands are to Scotland what the Pyrenees are to France, with equally breathtaking scenery and fantastic opportunities for walking and mountaineering. Aviemore and the Cairngorms National Park are particularly famous for skiing, whilst Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in Britain at 1343m, is a firm favourite for those seeking a challenge. For the less energetic, the Whisky Trail provides a unique way of exploring many of Scotland’s attractions and for quieter moments, there’s always Loch Ness and a chance to spot the elusive monster! Scotland also has some of Britain’s best and cleanest beaches. Cromarty is famous for its bottle-nosed dolphins and Nairn, whilst claiming to be one of the sunniest and driest places in the country, has glorious stretches of clean sand over which to roam. Several islands lie off the Scottish coast, each with their own character and heritage, however the Isle of Skye is probably the best known and most visited. As the largest of the Inner Hebrides, Skye’s turbulent geological past has bequeathed it a stunning coastline. Experienced walkers are drawn to the Black Cuillin Mountains, whilst those less experienced have an array of lower level coastal walks from which to choose or alternatively, visitors can take some time to visit Skye’s capital, the charming harbour town of Portree.
The Portree / Dunvegan area
Set on the north-west of the famous Isle of Skye, the village of Dunvegan is a quirky mixture of traditional stone dwellings and modern houses. With a wide selection of shops and hotels, Dunvegan is only a mile from the thirteenth century castle home of the Clan Macleod – who are said to have had dealings with the "wee folk" at the Fairy Bridge. Also in the area - with fantastic rock forms and pinnacles - are the Cuillin Mountains, which many climbers consider some of the best in the country. The Aros Centre provides a wide variety of concerts, theatre and cinema throughout the year and is well worth a visit, whilst Portree, the island’s only town boasts and excellent range of shops, restaurants and hotels, as well as a picturesque natural harbour.

Guestbook for 1558 - Lochside Cottage
The location was absolutely beautiful and came complete with three sheep who came to eat breakfast in our backyard every morning. The house is spacious and comfortably slept 7 people. I would have liked to stay longer.

,Lovely location within walking distance of the village yet with glorious views. Admittedly we were blessed with good weather! Overall the property exceeded expectations with its accommodation and layout.

,Isle of Skye was a very relaxing holiday with excellent surroundings.
Lochside Cottage was a 1st class base and all that you could ask for. A personal welcome and gift basket from the property owner on arrival set the scene for an excellent holiday. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Isle of Skye and this property to anyone.

,The setting for Lochside must be one of the most picturesque anywhere in the UK. It was very cosy and comfortable even in November and the owners were very welcoming and friendly. Superb.
