Isle Of Skye

Went on a motorbike trip with an old friend and ended up the top of Skye, Kyleakin. Stayed in a hostel and was an amazing weekend break. Would recommend the Fairy pools, absolutely stunning!!

I lived on Skye for 10 years
I grew up there
My little sister was born there

Its a magical place, I love it with all my heart and soul.

I highly recommend a visit to anyone, I cant explain why, go and see for yourself!

Shetland ponies!
Take the bus tour unless you want to hike all night; the interesting rock formations are at the “top” of the island, whereas the major settlement/hostel is at the other end, just past the bridge to mainland.

Walking on the main road does give you more opportunities to explore ruined cottages and farms that line the way, many just by the shore.

i love this place
why?
go and then we can speak about :p

After seeing pictures, hearing stories, having lots of Scottish ancestors and many other reasons my daughter’s name is Ruby Skye. A lot of people found it weird or just plain stupid to name her after a place but to those whom know anything about it… you would know why. Besides, Skye as a name means beauty, strength and virtue. OH YEAH! The whiskey is another good reason to go hahaha. —-—-—-—-—-—-——-Kimberleigh

Stayed at the lovely Taigh Mairi cottage (http://www.taighmairi.co.uk/) at the Braes, overlooking Raasay.

I rented a car with some friends and drive from London to the Isle of Skye, making several stops on the way. The best of all the trip was Skye. So calmed, so beautiful. Unfortunately I was there just for 2 or 3 days, but I would really like to go back.

Rumor is this is close to paradise, which is why:

We’re planning to live there…....check our progress

This time next year…..

Skye is probably the best place in Scotland for hiking and walking.

Try http://www.skyewalk.co.uk which has a huge number of free walks at all grades of difficulty on the island.

We spent a week on Skye in June 2006 and you can read all about in my blog The Jumbled Box

It all takes place in June and the story begins here
