Crafts and Coffee

Minginish is proud of the wonderfully talented people who live here. In a non-Covid Summer there is a *Made In Minginish* event each week at the Community Hall (five minutes walk from the Taigh Ailean Hotel). Here you can buy amazing knitwear sourced locally from sheep to jumper, Harris tweed loveliness and natural beauty products as well as delicious homemade cakes. Writing of Harris Tweed why not make an appointment to see the amazing Louise, of LouLou Designs and commission yourself an extraordinary embroidered handbag.


Loch Harport Gallery, only two minutes walk from the Taigh Ailean, where local artist Jean Thomas exhibits a wide range of etchings, prints and watercolours.

Caora Dubh Coffee in Carbost is an excellent takeaway coffee shop. Grab a cup on your way out to your adventures.

On The Croft – is Sally Argrave’s wonderful local craft shop just down the road in Fernilea. Sally spins wool from her own Jacob sheep and stocks her own work as well as that of an amazing variety of local artists, weavers and knitters. Definitely put this on your *to do list*.

Welcome

Wouldn’t it be lovely to get away from it all to a Hebridean island where you can relax and unwind,  explore and learn or challenge yourself physically, whatever suits your holiday needs. An island where history and the 21st century combine to give you the best possible experience. The Taigh Ailean team would really like to help you get the most of your time on Skye. From insider tips about the quieter spots to helping you book a swanky lunch to celebrate life, we’re so happy to help.
You’ll find amazing breakfasts, cosy rooms and a warm welcome at the Taigh Ailean Hotel.

Please note, Munros Bar is not open this year, but we do provide recommendations for places to eat (including dog and child friendly) and offer help with reservations.
