Destination: Isle of Skye
Three island days work better than trying to collect Skye's famous photographs in one lap.Good for: Distinctive landscapes and worthwhile food stops; the bridge gives you an alternative to ferry travel.The compromise: Long approach from Renfrew, crowded landmark parking and slow detours. A rushed weekend leaves little time on the island.Passing places are for traffic, and a full viewpoint car park is a reason to come back later. Put the last overnight on the mainland for a noon handback; Portree to Renfrew is a substantial transfer, not a relaxed final morning.Read the full Isle of Skye campervan guide
6-day Skye via Glenfinnan
Follow the west coast through Glencoe and Glenfinnan, then take the booked Mallaig ferry to Skye. One main island walk leaves room for coffee, parking and the mainland transfer before handback.
8-day west coast & Skye
Combine Argyll’s sea lochs with Glencoe, Glenfinnan and Skye. The extra mainland stages give the west coast more space, while the last island day still needs a planned return transfer.
