Accommodation

Six hotel nights Occupying a trio of old fisherman houses on the working harbour of Portree, the Rosedale Hotel provides an idyllic retreat for our time in Skye. Outside the front door, the waters are navigated by local fishing boats, while the town itself has cafes and restaurants to explore. Our 17-room traditional hotel has an intimate sea-view restaurant, serving a selection of dishes based on fresh, seasonal, local produce. The rooms are unfussy and homely and all come with complimentary toiletries and tea/coffee-making facilities. In Inverness, we stay at the Ardross Glencairn Guesthouse, close to the River Ness and only a few minutesโ€™ walk to the city centre.

      Day 1: Arrive Inverness (Dinner)

      Our adventure begins in Inverness, the most northerly city in the UK. Perched on the northeast coast of Scotland, it is the cultural hub of the Scottish Highlands and an ideal place for us to begin. If you have free time after checking into the hotel, you may want to explore the old town, home to the 19th-century Inverness Cathedral and an indoor Victorian market. This evening, there is a welcome meeting and dinner with your tour leader and the rest of the group. Accommodation: Ardross & Glencairn Guesthouse (or similar)

      We travel to the port town of Mallaig, where we board the ferry for Armadale on Skye (a 45-minute journey). On arrival, we transfer to the Fairy Pools, a magical collection of waterfalls and swimming spots where hardy souls brave the chilly waters โ€“ bring your swimwear if you want to test yourself with an icy dip. After exploring the pools, we continue to Portree where we check into our hotel. Accommodation: The Rosedale Hotel (or similar)

      Day 3: Quiraing Landslip Region Hike; Fairy Glen Exploration (Breakfast)

      This morning, we travel to Trotternish, the northernmost peninsula on the island, for a circular walk (4mi-5mi/7km-8km) of the Quiraing, an enormous landslip created over millions of years. It is wild, rugged and atmospheric. Our route passes spectacular rock formations, including two of the most famous in the region, the Prison and the Needle. After, we head to the Fairy Glen (a smaller yet still spectacular version of the Quiraing) to explore this geologically fascinating area at your leisure. We then return to Portree.
