Region: From the lush green farmlands of the Borders to the ruggedness of the Highlands, the Scots are proud of their land and identity. Scotland also has some of Britain's best beaches with glorious stretches of clean sand over which to roam.

Town: Set on the north-west of the famous Isle of Skye, the village of Dunvegan is a quirky mixture of traditional stone dwellings and modern houses. With a wide selection of shops and hotels, Dunvegan is only a mile from the thirteenth century castle home of the Clan Macleod – who are said to have had dealings with the "wee folk" at the Fairy Bridge. Also in the area - with fantastic rock forms and pinnacles - are the Cuillin Mountains, which many climbers consider some of the best in the country. The Aros Centre provides a wide variety of concerts, theatre and cinema throughout the year and is well worth a visit, whilst Portree, the island's only town boasts and excellent range of shops, restaurants and hotels, as well as a picturesque natural harbour.

Comfortable cottage
I enjoyed my stay but there are one or two things might make it even nicer. It was slightly unwelcoming, no welcome pack not even a little milk, & on a damp & chilly day it would have been very pleasant to have had a fire laid ready to light, at least for the first evening instead of having to clean it out, luckily I had bought some wood with me. A couple of new plants in the pots outside the front door would make it all look a bit cheerier too. It was all beautifully clean, tidy & comfortable (but the cutlery is awful!). I had no communication with the property manager - perhaps because there is no mobile signal or internet?
