The Fairy Flag is to be found in Dunvegan Castle but is thought to have come from The Fairy Bridge which is 3 miles away from the Castle. This site is magical but also a bit tragic as this is supposed to be the last location where the Chief of Clan Macleod saw his Fairy wife before leaving to return to Fairyland.
