LOCATION
The Trotternish peninsula in the north of Skye is undoubtedly one of the most spectacular parts of the island. The Trotternish Ridge dominates the landscape and offers some of the best hillwalking and views around, from the Quiraing in the north to the Old Man of Storr further south. Here you will find the buzzards, falcons and golden eagles that make this part of the country their home. The coastline boasts many miles of rewarding walking and exploring opportunities and fabulous marine and bird life. The area also features many interesting sites of historical and natural interest, including the Trotternish Ridge, with its amazing rock formations, pinnacles and pillars like the Quirang and the Old Man of Storr, Duntulm Castle, Rubha Hunish, Flora MacDonald's grave, Staffin Museum and the Skye Museum of Island Life.
Local amenities can be found in the village of Staffin, approx. 1 miles south, including primary school offering English and Gaelic medium, grocery shop with petrol pumps, community centre with shop, hotel and cafe. There is also a pretty beach and slipway in Staffin.
Portree, the island's capital, is approx.18 miles south and offers a wider range of facilities, including secondary school, shops, supermarkets, cafes, restaurants, cinema, theatre, galleries, hotels, swimming pool & leisure facilities, library, banks, local hospital, chemist, dentist, and bus links to the south.
