Walks to suit all ages and abilities are on offer straight from your doorstep, enjoy shoreline strolls and have a paddle in the clear water, spot seabirds, dolphins and whales on a ramble to Neist Point Lighthouse, or be rewarded with spectacular views from Waterstein Head. Discover the blood curdling legends of Dunvegan Castle (9 miles) and test your nerve in the creepy dungeons. Bag yourself a munro or two with a bracing hike up Macleod's Tables for panoramic views across the island and take a tour of the famous Talisker Distillery (26 miles) and sample some of their wonderful whisky. Nestled into the hillside and surrounded by open countryside dotted with white washed crofter's cottages and grazing livestock, your rural retreat sits in a slightly elevated position offering fantastic views across the fields and farmland. Follow the driveway through the gardens and park next to your imposing holiday home.
