In June of 2014 my wife and I stopped in here while touring Skye. Not only did we see and smell…read moresome delightful candles, but the shopkeeper was fantastic. He showed us postcards from all over the world. Essentially, all you need to do is send a card from somewhere to the shop's address and they'll send you a free air freshener. He let us simply have one - as we promised to send a card once we returned to the US. We ended up buying two large tumblers and a pin (it's not candle-esque... it just has a Highland Cow on it). We had a lovely time in this shop - and should we ever return to Skye, we'll be sure to stop in again. This is definitely worth a trip.

Nice place to stop when in the area. Great place to buy gifts. The candles smell amazing and the…read morestaff is very helpful.

The coffee shop is nice and the gals working there that day we're lovely. I ordered a Chai latte with oat milk which was delicious and not too sweet. It came out lukewarm, I would have preferred it a bit hotter. We were here for a total of 30 minutes but the service was friendly and quick. If you are looking for a quickly stop on the way to or from Skye, this is a good place to stop.

The restaurant was understaffed and we were informed immediately that they were not taking guests. Yet two minutes later another couple wandered in and asked for seating for two and were immediately seated. Did they refuse to seat us because we are Hispanic?

The shop is very spacious and has a clean fresh feel to it. There are items for any room in the house as you would expect from any furniture shop. The staff are helpful and knowledgeable. They help you to find the piece to meet your needs. Our kitchen table came from here many years ago and it still looks as good as the day we bought it. The items are of good quality and there are some wooden pieces which are just beautiful!

The colour centre is another great wee shop located up Church street. There are not many dedicated…read moreshops for paint on the island but this wee one is great! The shop is small but you are bound to find what you need here. They offer the usual kinds of paints gloss, matt, emulsion etc by different makers. The best thing about them is if you are after a particular colour you just need an example of what you want it to look like and they have a machine which matches the colour as closely as possible. This came in very hand when redecorating recently. The staff are very helpful in finding you the right paint and their prices are reasonable.

Great little paint shop in the town centre, just off the main street…read more The stock a great variety of household paints in all types, along with varnishes, outdoor paints, rollers and brushes.

Highly recommended.
