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.
