The first new village in Skye in over 100 years is now open for applications for its 17 new homes.

Partners Sabhal Mòr Ostaig, the National Centre for Gaelic Language and Culture, The Highland Council and the Communities Housing Trust are offering 17 new affordable homes: six homes for social rent with The Highland Council as well as six affordable homes for discounted sale, two for rent, and three discounted self-build plots with the Communities Housing Trust.

Around 100 homes in total are expected to be built in Kilbeg over time, including a mix of discounted rent and sale family homes, level-access and wheelchair accessible homes.

Given its proximity to Sabhal Mòr Ostaig, it is expected that the development will attract Gaelic speakers or learners of all ages, though the homes will be open to all with a need to live or work in the area.

The new development will promote the Gaelic language through education, research and cultural opportunities. Learn more about the project here: https://www.smo.uhi.ac.uk/leasachadh-na-cille-bige-a-fosgladh-iarrtasan-airson-17-dachaighean-ura-air-pris-reusanta/?lang=en
