Sightseeing

The Fairy Glen often is left out of guide books but it is one of the most beautiful places in Skye. Travel north up the A87 towards UIG and just before the Uig Hotel on the right, turn right at the bus shelter into the road to Sheader. About 1.5 km in you come to the unusual landscape that is the Fairy Glen. Trust me you will know when you are there.

Truth is everywhere in Skye puts you in touch with nature whilst walking. In Borve we have the ancient standing stones, livestock, deer with birds of prey flying overhead
