JANUARY

A wintry road through Glen More
 

January is a quiet month on the island - many of the residents will be enjoying the peace and quiet and making the most of a well earned rest following Christmas and Hogmanay celebrations. The traditional old New Year is still celebrated on 12 January as well as Burns Night with many Haggis, Neeps and Tattie Suppers being devoured on 25th across the island.
Bird and wild life is active as the resident birds start their courtships so there is still plenty to see and do outdoors. The hunting and shooting season is still on going (deer and game birds). Accommodation may be limited in January so check out the links to the right. Start booking your holiday now.

MARCH

Spring primroses are abundant
 

Spring is very much beginning to arrive as the land begins to waken up after the dark winter months - lush green spring growth, frisky spring lambs, gorgeous aromatic gorse with bursts of yellow, primroses galore. Bird life galore and with lighter longer days it's a great time to take advantage of the off-peak season. There are some great deals to be had - Spring Breaks
