October is a beautiful time of year to visit Skye and experience the changing seasonal landscape.

As the days get shorter and nights draw in it is a perfect opportunity to light the wood burner and get cosy

Off the beaten track 👣👣👣We enjoyed listening to Seamus talk about the croft that has been in his family for generations and his unique relationship to the land and his dogs. This 1 hour experience offers a unique glimpse into the history of crofting in the area around the Fairy Glen and training and working with sheepdogs.

*Only 15 minutes from 57 North*

Spring has Sprung! There are baby animals at every turn at the moment on Skye. We were lucky enough to spot this Mama Coo tending to her newborn by the fabulous Museum of Island Life past Kilmuir. An amazing glimpse into how life used to be on Skye. Recommended.
