Frequently Asked Questions about short term rentals in Skye
What attractions should you visit during a week-long stay on Skye, in the United Kingdom?
A week in Skye allows for a good overview. Definitely visit the Old Man of Storr for iconic views, and hike the Quiraing for its otherworldly landscape. Explore the Fairy Pools for a refreshing dip (weather permitting!), and marvel at the dramatic cliffs of Neist Point. Don't miss Dunvegan Castle, the ancestral home of the Clan MacLeod, and take a scenic drive along the Trotternish Peninsula. Allow time for exploring Portree, the island's main town.
What attractions should you visit when you spend a month on Skye, in the United Kingdom?
A month gives you ample time for a deeper exploration. Besides the popular spots mentioned above, consider hiking the challenging but rewarding Old Man of Storr, exploring the less-visited northern parts of Skye like the Waternish Peninsula, and perhaps even taking a boat trip to see seals and other wildlife. Spend more time exploring the various smaller villages and glens, and dedicate time to visiting the island's many smaller museums and heritage sites. Consider visiting the Talisker Distillery for a whisky tasting.
