The beautiful curve of Talisker Bay seen from above 😉. Pre walk fuelling courtesy of the always fab . Third pic: who needs to go to Iceland with aspects like this on Skye?! Last pic is a painterly view of the horizon, reminiscent of the gorgeous work of

Less a coffee and cake and more a Preemptive Strike before the recent Bla Bheinn ascent. Absolute pleasure to meet the lovely Alison & Mark of .amys in Torrin. Packed with the best home made cake selection ever, they named their wee cafe after their beloved daughter Amy who sadly passed away. You can tell that they carry on the love in their warm welcome and delicious creations (swipe left and zoom in for a selection!). Do stop in en route to Torrin/Elgol. 😊👏🏻🎂🙏🏻

World Earth Day today and a depressing, sobering image which doesn’t often feature on social media posts about Skye beaches! This is a byproduct of our marine industry and tonnes of it washes up onshore. Creating a positive initiative have encouraged clean up campaigns so today we gathered up plastic rope which will be turned into plant pots by .plastic.pots 👏🏻🌎💓

Fantastic to have the superb right on our doorstep in Sleat. Always highly recommended to .lair guests 😊. Making the most of glorious Spring days out on the water with the mighty Cuillin as a backdrop. Thanks so much Kevin! 🛶🙏🏻👏🏻

A last sigh of snow clinging to the sinuous edged summit of Ladhar Bheinn across from .lair on a truly sumptuous Spring day.

Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity to sail on the last seagoing paddle steamer in the world, direct from our local pier at Armadale, Sleat. Fantastic views guaranteed 👏🏻

Run, don’t walk, a rare last minute space has opened up for the gloriously cosy and utterly delicious experience that is at cooked by and team. This is the veggie version 🤯, with the best veggie gravy we’ve EVER tasted. Any chance of sharing the recipe for those of who are cooking Christmas dinner for the family?! 🙏🏻😏

Recent pics while taking the High Road and the Low Road on Skye! There are dramatic heights to scale (view to the ‘In Pinn’ from Sgùrr Mhic Chòinnich, check out tags for pro folks who can guide you up there), but there are also happy hours to while away right at beach level, in all weathers. Really enjoyed creating wee nature portraits using this remnant of shell. Had to stop myself at 32, it was becoming an obsession 😬.

We’re sold out til November, but due to a cancellation there is now late availability - from this Saturday 5th June for seven nights (minimum 3 night stay). Head to www.skyelair.com to book!

SO wonderful to be welcoming guests back to .lair! If you fancy time travelling to walk in the footsteps of previous “visitors” 😳🗡💪🏻(and then settlers), the remains of an amazing Viking boat yard on Skye make for a great day’s walking. Link to walk here (thanks again ): https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/skye/rubhandunain.shtml. For a fab reconstruction video by .history go here: https://player.vimeo.com/video/396688841

A weekend of coastal walks in Elgol which perfectly express the compelling mutability of Skye. Moody and magnificent one day, benign and gentle the next!

Over the sea FROM Skye today! The Armadale-Mallaig Ferry is just five mins drive from .lair, crossing takes 45 mins with great views to Knoydart and a great day trip out for just £6 return, thanks 🙏🏻👏🏻🚢. Took the bike over on the first ferry and cycled down past the beaches of Morar to Arisaig and back in time to catch the teatime ferry back and even spotted a Minke whale! Fuelled by yummy coffee and croissant from 🥐 @ Arisaig

Absolutely delighted with this beautifully written article on Skye Lair in Scotland on Sunday !! Fiona Weir did a lovely job and it really captures the house perfectly - thanks so much 🙏🏻😊 @ Teangue, Highland, United Kingdom

A different perspective of Skye during the most glorious few days of weather - looking from Glenelg on the mainland across to Kylerhea. This a brilliant way to get to the island (arriving not far from Skye Lair) and we’re SO looking forward to having the gorgeous wee back on the go once these challenging times ease!

So glorious to truly see and feel Spring returning to Skye Lair! Very much looking forward to sharing these wonderful views and peaceful, relaxing times with our guests 🌱

Lovely Tarskavaig and a view to Rum and the Cuillin on a gentle day of birdsong and Spring lambs. Thank goodness for a wee pause because the ‘Loop’ via Ord and Toskavaig by bike is VERY uppy/downy! But so beautiful it’s worth every pedal turn ☺️🚵‍♀️

Today is the great John Muir’s 185th birthday! What better way to honour his legacy than climbing Bla Bheinn to sit amidst the splendour of these extraordinary wild places. And the legacy of his conservation work is continued here in Scotland by the fantastic @johnmuirtrust. Thank you for your stewardship and hard work maintaining access and land 🙏🏻. I popped a birthday present in the donation box in thanks and celebration, I hope you’ll consider doing the same! 😊🎉🎂⛰️

An absolute gift of a January day on Skye, up to #neistpoint in the north west and the famous lighthouse. Views to the Uists, Harris & Lewis. ‘Off’ season can be a wonderful time to visit. Add in a glorious meal @thethreechimneysskye and an epic day out is complete.

Retreat, Recover, Re-energise

Some years ago I came to the Isle of Skye to stay over a weekend. The sense of utter peace and calm, both inside and out and the natural glories around me were a balm, whose healing effects lasted for a long time. I vowed to recreate this for the many people whose daily lives allow little time and space for reflection and recuperation from the demands of our modern world. In your time at Skye Lair, I hope you will experience a similar sense of renewal and emerge energised and ready to face life with a spring in your step.
