Close by and within walking distance of Lochbay House is Stein, a model fishing village designed by Thomas Telford in the late 1700’s Here you will find Skye’s oldest inn (The Stein Inn) along with the renowned Loch Bay Seafood Restaurant. Also in the area is a village hall, primary school, Skye Skyns workshop, a local Diving Centre, craft shop and gallery. A selection of local amenities can be found in Dunvegan which is just a 10 minute drive away including a medical centre, restaurants, shops, garage, and Primary School.
