Portree Travel Blogs

Today was our last day on the Isle of Skye. We left Portree heading south on A87. Hamish made a few photo stops, including the Three Sisters at Glencoe, and then headed over Skye Bridge to return to the Scottish main land. Returning to mainland Scotland at Kyle of Lochalsh, we co…

  Portree is about 30 miles from the entrance of Skye.  It is the biggest village of the Island so maybe we can call it a city!  Well, as there is more than one street (for a change !), it might as well be one.  It is pleasant to go around Somerled Square and do some shopping (s…

A delightful road trip through the land of kilts, haggis, bad weather, golf, whiskey and unsubstantiated lake monsters.... Travelled in a circle up the east coast, across to the north west and down the west coast before returning through the middle. A wonderful country with some terrific scenery. Weird people with funny accents, and as long as you only want to eat fish & chips you'll be fine!

1 week in Scotland visiting my family heritage!

Went to visit my sister in London for a few days, then spent a week and a half travelling around Scotland.

I was really excited about today, to be exploring the isle of Skye. We set of from the hostel shortly after 9am and headed north to Portree, the capital of Skye. We stopped there for about 45 mins so we could pick up some lunch and have a look around. Many of us choose the local bakers which Go…

The further north I get, the more I seem to love the place! First it was the lakes and then scotland.
