What to see & Where to go
The Cottage at Edinbane
Northern lights over Trumpan Church, Waternish
A number of walks and off road cycle routes are near the cottage. Please see the maps and walk information in the boot room or just email us for more details.
Because of its secluded setting away from background lighting Meadow Cottage provides beautiful views of the night sky, and the occasion glimpse of Northern lights.
Skye is home for a wide range of art and craft workshops and galleries, from beautiful locally dyed wools and yarns to potteries, jewellers, sword makers and artists of international acclaim. You can just explore and rely on serendipity or visit http://www.art-skye.co.uk.
