7 Lessons & Workshops in The Hebrides That You Shouldn't Miss

August 13, 2021 Esmeralda Fenner

This beautiful archipelago, where Scottish Gaelic is still spoken, is divided into the Inner and Outer Hebrides and stretches the length of Scotland's west coast. The most visited and largest of the Western Isles is the brooding Isle of Skye, a short ferry ride or bridge away from the mainland. Islay, home to prolific whisky production, is another gem. Highlights of the less visited Outer Isles include stark Lewis and the town of Stornoway, rugged Harris, with sandy beaches and tranquil Barra.

Went to see about yarn, ended up talking with the owner. She is wealth of knowledge and imparts it with humour and humility. Thoroughly enjoyed the visit, and if she is successful it will be a great place to stay.
