Message from Tartan Viking

Duntulm, a charming township on the northern tip of the Isle of Skye, is steeped in history and natural beauty. Originally a Pictish fortress, it later became a Viking stronghold known as David's Fort. The village boasts stunning coastal scenery, the iconic ruins of Duntulm Castle, and a lifting stone called clach-ultaich. Visitors can enjoy the remote yet glorious surroundings, with a trek to Rubha Hunish offering breathtaking views of the Outer Hebrides. With one hotel facing the castle and sea, Duntulm provides a peaceful retreat for those seeking a tranquil escape in the Scottish Highlands.
