Rainbow Cottage  is quiet and private yet it is only a  mile from the award winning Stein Inn, Skye’s oldest pub, and the exceptional Lochbay Seafood Restaurant down in the bay.

There are a number of galleries and other creative places along the peninsular – not to mention the stunning walks all around.

Skye is a walker’s paradise and we have maps and walking guides for the use of guests in the cottage. Skye also has a great reputation for food and has a range of excellent eating places for the visitor to enjoy.

The famous ‘Three Chimneys’ restaurant is approximately 20 minutes drive away, and ‘The Old School House’ in Dunvegan, just five miles away, is highly recommended.

Kinloch Lodge hotel and  restaurant, an hour’s drive away, has been awarded the first Michelin star for a restaurant on Skye and is well worth a visit.

The nearby village of Dunvegan has the historic 1000 year old Dunvegan Castle and gardens which are a delight to visit and there is also a grocery shop, bakery, garage, newsagent and a ‘to die for’ cake/chocolate shop (Jann’s cakes).

Fresh fish can be delivered to your doorstep on request.

Portree, the main town on Skye, is a beautiful 25 minute drive away and has a range of attractions and eating places including the ever popular and funky Arriba cafe/bistro.
