The landscape is dramatic—even a bit moody, with the Cuillin Range in the background—but outdoorsy kids will have a blast on the Isle of Skye. Plenty of water sports are available, and you’ll also find great hiking and even pony rides. Portree, the largest town, makes a great base for exploring this striking island.

What wonderful smells greet you as you enter this lovely shop. The shopkeeper is so welcoming and full of information. I bought a very unique fish cork trivet as well as soaps. Great prices. Fun items to remember our visit to Skye

Lovely find in Broadford with a great selection on yard from around Scotland and the UK, some great packs to get started and a great selection of wool for felting. Very helpful owner with some helpful advice and very welcoming.

Skye Weavers are a small weaving and sewing business based on the Hebridean Isle of Skye. On their bicycle pedal-powered loom they weave a variety of woollen products including scarves, blankets, throws and wraps. They also make tweed, which they sell as lengths and make up into garments, cushion covers, bags and accessories. Check the opening hours on the website, if you would like to watch the weavers at work and have a browse through the shop.

A multi-award winning shop providing inspiration for those who seek the bright, bold and offbeat. Imagine a place where colourful Celtic batiks and gorgeous hand loomed cottons combine to grab your attention and a shopping experience like no other. We design and make our own stunning and unique pieces - waxing lyrical since 1987 and still loving what we do!

Island at the Edge - Working croft (small farm) where we raise rare breed sheep and produce knitting yarns, tweed and a range of knitwear. Knitting, spinning and crochet courses from half days to three days. Kilts, accessories Made to measure. Small private tours and larger group tours welcome. Open all year, come along and meet the sheep and discover our world of wool. We are located on the A850 between Portree and Dunvegan Castle at Edinbane.
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.
