Stein is a conservation village which was designed originally by Thomas Telford as a model fishing village at the end of the 18th Century. Tern House overlooks the village from up high and can be reached on foot by a steep path downhill in 8 minutes. Stein itself boasts the renowned Loch Bay Restaurant, the only Michelin-starred restaurant on the Island. Along the pretty terrace, you will also find Skye's oldest pub, the Stein Inn, which serves good food and local real ales. Waternish is home to a wealth of beautiful shorelines to walk along, as well as forestry walks where you can sometimes view amazing wildlife including golden eagles, sea eagles, seals, dolphins, whales, otters and corncrakes. It also has several popular visitor attractions including the 5-star Skyeskyns (next door to the House), Scotland’s only traditional sheepskin tannery and showroom.
