  Ornsay Lighthouse & Keepers House, Sound of Sleat, Isle of Sky Organisation The Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland Alternative Name(s) Sound of Sleat; Ornsay Isle; Eilean Sionnaich; Kyle Rea; Atlantic Canmore ID 99269 Site Type Lighthouse County Inverness-shire Parish Sleat Council Highland NGR NG 71350 12183 Latitude, Longitude 57.143432N, 5.781118W Isle Ornsay Lighthouse D. & T. Stevenson, 1857 A balconied tower standing out like a white finger against the awesome backdrop of the Garbh Criochan, with double range of keepers' cottages hugging the ground above a stone-walled garden close by. Like their twins on Eilean Ban, these stand back to back and were formerly owned by Gavin Maxwell who, finding them ' primordial, without a stick of furniture, and no light or fuel ... eerie beyond belief', converted them a few years after the lighthouse was automated in 1962, into 'a single sumptuous 4-bedroomed residence.
