On the Isle of Skye, nestled into the rocks stands a tiny tidal island called Eilean Sionnach (which translates as ‘Island of the Fox.’).

Now you know how to say it, all that's left is to feel it.

- National Lighthouse Day -

It’s been said that this place feels as old as time itself. 

A lighthouse cottage nestled into the rocks – its historical inhabitants with a very important job to do.

Both the cottage and the lighthouse were built by the Stevenson Brothers in 1857, and the lighthouse was automated in 1962.

Did you know it's still a working lighthouse?

Island living doesn’t get much better than freshly caught seafood 😍 from langoustines to mussels and so much more, the local produce is second to none here in Skye. Guests are welcome to fish here from the Island but remember if you want to fish in rivers or lochs you’ll need a permit.

What’s been your best Isle of Skye catch? 🎣

A little for you all today. Three years ago we welcomed Sandi Toksvig and Sindhu Vee from Channel 4’s Extraordinary Escapes to Eilean Sionnach.

It was quite an operation to get the two presenters, eight crew and all their recording equipment across to the island!

We featured on episode 3 of the first series and if you haven’t seen it before, it’s definitely worth a watch https://www.channel4.com/programmes/extraordinary-escapes-with-sandi-toksvig/on-demand/71716-003

putting things into perspective for us.

If you want lots of action, jammed packed days, lively nightlife and streets upon streets of shops then Eilean Sionnach is NOT for you 🛑

If you want peace, tranquility, calm and to be at one with nature then Eilean Sionnach is exactly for you. Our little island reminds you exactly how amazing it is to be alive and to be grateful for just being 🙏

If you’d been to our island before we’d love it if you could leave some feedback below! 👇
