About

Spar serves Isle of Skye from Elgol, Isle of Skye IV49 9BQ, United Kingdom, in the island's southern corner. The store holds a 4.7 out of 5 average from 237 reviews, a strong record for a village shop. Elgol is a small settlement on the island's south coast, and Broadford, Portree and Armadale are the main places within reach, so getting there from the larger towns takes some planning. The store's website, https://www.spar.co.uk/store-locator/lan17025-spar-balmacara, is its online reference. Opening hours run Monday to Saturday from 07:30 to 21:00, with Sunday hours from 10:00 to 20:00. Isle of Skye is reached by car ferries and passenger ferries, and British islands range from low chalk and sandstone to rugged sea cliffs cut by glacial erosion. Seafood is central to island food, with crab, lobster, scallops, mackerel and oysters landed by small boats. The store's position in Elgol places it in one of the island's more remote corners, useful for visitors heading to the south coast.
