OUR COMMUNITY

 

Our community is situated in the Sleat peninsula, in the South of the Isle of Skye and includes the crofting townships of Camuscross, Cruard,  Duisdale and Isle Ornsay. In 2016, our population was approximately 180, including 37 children.

 

Life in a rural community can be every bit as busy and challenging as any other, but invariably rewarding. Camuscross and Duisdale is a vibrant and dynamic community and we look forward to welcoming you.
