The Isle of Skye is the best known of the Inner Hebridean islands. Famous for its romantic, historical associations and magnificent landscape dominated by the Cuillin hills, the island is very popular, attracting many tourists throughout the year as well as those who seek to enjoy a peaceful lifestyle in unspoilt and beautiful surroundings. The Sleat peninsula, known as the Garden of Skye, has a mild climate and gentle, lush landscape and is easily accessible both from the Skye bridge and Mallaig to Armadale ferry. The many coastal and forestry trails, small islands and inlets and locally available moorings make it an ideal location for the outdoor enthusiast. Armadale Castle and the Museum of the Isles nearby are popular visitor attractions with beautiful gardens and many walks within the castle grounds. Broadford, about 12 miles away, has a good range of shops and facilities, while Sleat primary school is about two miles away and a wider range of amenities and secondary schooling are available in Portree. Inverness, about 2 hours’ drive away, has all the facilities of a modern city including its airport with regular flights to the south and Europe.Built in 1999, Alavik Lodge is a charming timber framed, timber clad lodge in a spectacular setting on the edge of the scattered township of Tokavaig, surrounded by an area of woodland designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). The lodge has been designed to take full advantage of the views over the neighbouring countryside to Loch Eishort and the Cuillin Mountain range with the open plan sitting room / dining room with wood burning stove having a glazed gable, framing the landscape, and flooding the space with natural light. The one-bedroom cottage, built in 2005 and of similar construction to the lodge, provides ancillary accommodation to the principal property and holds potential to generate an income (subject to license).
