Portree
Portree is the main town on Skye, with a picturesque natural harbour and lots to do.
The setting for Bonnie Prince Charlie's last days in Scotland, Portree is a bustling port and a thriving cultural centre. Among the attractions is the Aros Centre which incorporates an exhibition capturing the drama of Skye's history. The centre is also the access point for walks in Portree Forest.
Other local assets include the recently refurbished An Tuireann Arts Centre which offers contemporary visual arts and crafts plus an imaginative café; and the highly acclaimed Skye Scene Highland Ceilidh where you have the chance to participate in the authentic musical experience that the word ceilidh originally described.
North of Portree is the spectacular scenery of the Trotternish Ridge - wild country dominated by weird and wonderful rock formations such as the Old Man of Storr, Kilt Rock and the truly extraordinary pinnacles of the Quiraing.
