Isle of Skye – Ose

Posted by Karen on April 5, 2015
Posted in: Scotland.

We reluctantly left the comfort of Sconcer for the unknown ….we thought of moving on but my discomfort is now extreme from my Chemo so Vince insisted we stay and rest up a bit…. He’s so good to me. So we needed to find accommodation for a few days to let me rest. It was an effort to pack up and move on but we managed to find a B&B in Ose for 85 pounds a night and they had a couple of nights available. As our room would not be available until after 4.30 (it was only around 11.00am) and we had discovered everywhere (accommodation and Pubs) on Skye deal in cash …we needed to find a teller machine (only available in the capital Portree).  We also took the time to go to Dunvegan Castle where Vince joked about a family discount and they (Malcolm) actually gave us one! A lovely young man in a kilt also came out to look after my helmet which he promised me he would not try on nor take the ANIMAL for a spin! I was also advised to ask to sign the family book as the Chief likes to see where family are coming from….so I did. Vince was impressed …especially by the dungeons and the idea that the early Chiefs just either had their wives beheaded or put into the Dudgeon to die of cold or starvation and take a new one ……hmmmmm….a lot cheaper than divorce I guess. Hope he’s not trying to tell me something LOL. Luckily I don’t think the Partridges have a castle or a dungeon so I think I’m safe.
