Subject: Photography - Raasay House
I would like to introduce Raasay House and the Isle of Raasay to you as a unique destination for your photography club.
Raasay is a long, thin island, 14 miles long and 4 miles wide and it offers a diversity of landscapes and an almost unequalled, unspoilt beauty. The island of Raasay is a photographer's paradise.
Raasay House is surrounded by woodland, set in its own private grounds overlooking the sea, with view across to the Cuillin Mountains on Skye.
With in a short walk of the House there are sandy beaches, rocky shore lands, heather covered hills and forests dotted with ruins showing evidence of earlier habitation and an ancient culture. Whether on land, sea or in the air the wildlife is superb. Sea and Golden Eagles nest on and close to the island and the sea bird population is as varied as anywhere on the west coast. Otters, seals, dolphins, porpoises, basking sharks and whales frequent the waters, and red deer roam the higher slopes.
The Isle of Raasay has something for every photography enthusiast.
Set on the shores of Churchton Bay Raasay House overlooks the Sound of Raasay, and the mountains of Skye. Over 250 years old the Georgian mansion provides a welcoming, warm and comfortable base for any visitor to the Island . Serving delicious home cooked and locally sourced food, the resident's dining room and adjacent restaurant, café & bar cater for all tastes. Comfortable lounges with open fires, a library and spacious accommodation on the upper floors, a unique and wonderful base for your island explorations.
For more details on the service Raasay House can provide you and your group, information on the island, availability of dates and prices please don't hesitate to contact us for more information.
By boat, bike, car or foot exploring Raasay is a rare and unforgettable treat.
