Skeabost Bridge is a Hebridean village on the north western coast of the Isle of Skye in Scotland. The surrounding area is blessed with bewitching scenery which offers an intriguing link with centuries past, nearby is St Columba’s Island, a cemetery set amidst the Snizort River with an ancient chapel veiled, eerily in overgrown surroundings where four of the tombs date back to the Crusades. A few miles away is Portree the largest town on the island, which has the Aros Experience and the Skye Heritage Centre waiting to share it’s fascinating story. If the temptation of a round or two is hard to ignore, there is the chance to play nine challenging holes at Skeabost Golf Club although a rewarding experience, it was built on the site of a bloody battle fought by the Macleod and Macdonald Clans in 1539. If fishing is longed for there is Loch Eyre, Loch Connan and of course the Snizort River. Walkers are spoilt as the moody and dramatic landscapes unfold at every turn, climbers can tighten their laces as they head for the challenge of Beinn a’ Ghlinne Bhig, or perhaps the spectacle of Nature will be enjoyed at the Trotternish Ridge or the mountain pinnacles of Quirang,
