Hotels in Isle of Skye, United Kingdom

The Isle of Skye is a rugged island off Scotland's northwest coast, known for its dramatic mountain landscapes and historic ruins like Dunvegan Castle. The climate is cool and wet, with summer temperatures averaging 55°F (13°C) ideal for hiking the Old Man of Storr and the Quiraing, while winters around 40°F (4°C) offer fewer crowds and a chance to spot golden eagles or walk the Fairy Pools without the tourists. In the driest months from April to September, you can join a boat tour around the Cuillin Ridge, but even a rainy October day rewards you with dramatic cloud-scapes over the Fairy Glen.
