Region: From the lush green farmlands of the Borders to the ruggedness of the Highlands, the Scots are proud of their land and identity. Scotland also has some of Britains best beaches with glorious stretches of clean sand over which to roam.

Town: The village of Dunvegan is set in the north west of Skye and contains a mixture of traditional stone and modern houses, along with a selection of shops and hotels. About a mile from the village is Dunvegan Castle, home to the Clan MacLeod, who have continuously occupied the castle since the 13th century. A wonderful base for a holiday exploring the Isle of Skye.

Response from the manager
We couldn't be happier that you had a lovely break at Red Chimneys Cottage, thank you for taking the time to tell us about it. Seeing all that wildlife sounds fabulous, the dolphins and whales sound like a particular treat! We certainly hope you, and of course your dogs, return to enjoy the place again soon.
