aurora retreat skye
The North West of Scotland, and specifically the Isle of Skye, is globally renowned for having some of the darkest skies in all of Europe. This is a precious natural resource, offering an unparalleled view of the cosmos away from the light pollution of modern cities.
Imagine stepping out of your retreat and seeing a night sky so black and so densely packed with stars that it can be challenging to pick out the familiar constellations—this is the reality in this remote corner of Skye.
Glendale, where Aurora Rural Retreats is nestled, is a community deeply committed to preserving this dark-sky heritage.
Zero Light Pollution: Glendale boasts a near-total absence of light pollution, allowing the magnificent Milky Way to be clearly visible, snaking across the night sky. The sheer density of visible stars can be breathtaking.
Aurora Borealis Hotspot: Due to its high northern latitude (around 57.5∘ North) and open, north-facing vistas over the Atlantic, Glendale is celebrated as one of the best locations on Skye for a chance to witness the Aurora Borealis
