the Isle of Skye is a place renowned world-wide for its breathtakingly unspoilt scenery and rich cultural heritage. A place teeming with natural history and a compelling diversity of wildlife.

'Aite Taimh' is located right at the heart of this fascinating Island just on the outskirts of Portree, overlooking Loch Portree, the harbour and the Old Man of Storr in the distance.

Offering easy access to all parts of central and northern Skye, it is also conveniently located for the shopping, drinking and eating out. 

Thanks to its tranquil  location, 'Aite Taimh' is also a delightfully peaceful haven in its own right, where many a happy hour can easily be whiled away.

As the main town on Skye, Portree offers many activities and places of interest, including the Aros Visitor Centre, boat trips from Portree Harbour with SkyeWaves and Skye Adventure Cruises amongst others.

Eating and drinking around Portree also offers a bewildering choice, with the specialty being fresh, locally-caught seafood. There is also always plenty of good live music or a Ceilidh to get the feet tapping.

Outdoor activities including walking and climbing can vary form the mild (there are plenty of good woodland walks nearby) to the extreme: the Trotternish Ridge and the Cuillins are both world-renowned challenges.

Further afield, there are plenty of interests on the Trotternish peninsula, passing through Edinbane (stop off at the Edinbane Pottery or the nearby Skye Riding Centre) to the Waternish peninsula and on to Dunvegan (home of Dunvegan Castle, historic seat of the Clan MacLeod).
