The Experience
Wildlife fans will spot whales, dolphins, eagles, seals, otters and deer; wander through tall grasses sprinkled with bluebells, wild garlic and rare orchids. Stride over stunning hills, cycle your socks off, fish from the shore – there’s much to do and see from your award-winning architect-designed retreat on the hill. Inside is equally invigorating: floor to ceiling windows for long and wide views, a crisply dressed bed, super shower room, a sofa facing the sea and a sleek kitchen on the side.
You’ll feel very private: lovely Ian and Robbie are just down the hill but you can’t see them and they can’t see you. Instead they leave you alone with tasty biscuits and a good bottle of wine. If it all sounds too rustic for you then take heart! There’s a widescreen TV with Sky, WiFi, and a smart music system – even if it’s raining you’ll feel happy here.
Treat yourselves to a meal out at The Three Chimneys, a 10-minute winding drive.

We were completely stunned by the beauty of Skye and staying at An Airigh allowed us to immerse ourselves completely in this wild part of the world. The location is perfect with walks from the house and some of the 'must see' destinations of Skye just a short drive away. The house itself is super comfortable, well-designed and well-equipped with floor to ceiling windows framing the most sublime views. Robbie and Ian are helpful hosts with good advice about things to do in the area and of course, just a few miles down the road is the very special Three Chimneys Restaurant.

We had a wonderful two week stay in An-airigh. The accommodation was faultless - comfortable, well equipped and well maintained. It's set in a beautiful landscape with amazing views and lovely walks from the doorstep. And so peaceful! Robbie and Ian are excellent hosts - offering great suggestions for things to do, trips to take and places to eat. This was our first trip to North West Skye and we are so glad that we were able to explore it from this great place. Highly recommended!

We had an amazing stay at An Airigh, the house is just perfect for the two of us and all the little details were absolutely spot on. It was the perfect base for us to explore Skye - we didn't want to be in a town over surrounded by other properties. An Airigh just ticked all of the boxes. Ian and Robbie were lovely and so nice and helpful, suggesting places to visit and things to do. The information pack in the house was also fantastic and lots of maps and books on the area too. We hope to be back in the not too distant future.

At this most stressful of times, An Airigh and Skye threw us a lifeline. The accommodation is so comfortable and well maintained and everything has been thought of. The views from the window are breathtaking. We spent most mornings quite happily relaxing in the house and looking at the ever changing skies, before heading out to explore the surrounding areas. We would most definitely return.

Location
The neighbourhood
Galtrigill is a small crofting township beside Loch Dunvegan - it's pretty much the 'end of the line' so there's no passing traffic. The nearest village shop, post office and the lovely Café Lephin is at Glendale, a 15-minute drive. Dunvegan is 25 minutes for Fasgadh Stores, the Fruit and Nut Place, a good bakery and The Dunvegan for informal, relaxed dining.
Local points of interest from Ian McLean
- We are a short drive away from The Three Chimneys Restaurant
- Dunvegan Head is a short 1 hour walk to the highest sea cliff on Skye with stunning 360 degree view of the Western Isles, Macleods Tables, The Cuillin and the Trotternish Ridge.
- Neist Point - There is a Lighthouse and rocks reputed to be same formation that reaches over to the Giants Causeway in Northern Ireland. It’s a great place for fishing, wildlife such as dolphins, whales and sea birds as well as glorious sunsets.
- Dunvegan Castle - Is Scotland’s oldest inhabited castle: you can explore the grounds and the beautiful walled garden. From there you can take seal boat trips.
- Coral Beach - The white sandy beach is directly across the loch from An Airigh, made from unique calcified seaweed. It’s a beautiful natural place whatever the weather and the clear water looks so inviting. During very low tides you can cross the causeway.

Introducing
Ian McLean
Charming Ian and Robbie, great lovers of nature, swapped their London city jobs for a complete lifestyle change and are now crofters. They have Hebridean sheep, a vegetable garden with polytunnel and they planted the meadow in front of you as well as many trees. They came to Skye for the landscape, the wildlife and hill-walking and they hope you love it as much as they evidently do.
An Airigh is situated in a beautiful location overlooking Loch Dunvegan. The accommodation is superb and has all the comforts and necessary things that you need, from spectacular views over Loch Dunvegan over to Coral Bay, a comfy bed, lovely bathroom equipped with local toiletries to everything you need in the kitchen, not forgetting a log burner. The owners are on hand nearby however the Guest information contains all the information you need, detailing local walks, restaurants, and local shops. They have put a lot of thought and detail in to this property …and the wildlife is spectacular!
