Edinbane is a village in the north-east of Skye, roughly 13 miles from Skye's largest town, Portree, which is a popular tourist destination attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors annually. A December 2018 report recommended Portree as "Skye's best home base" for visitors", since it has "a few hotels, hostels and bed-and-breakfasts in town, while more B&Bs line the roads into and out of town". Edinbane itself offers multiple amenities, including restaurants, a hotel, and characterful shops selling pottery and sheepskin and wool products. Skye is the largest of the Inner Hebrides, and one of Scotland's most popular islands, accessible by ferry or by the Skye bridge which joins onto the mainland.
