Visitors at Skyeskyns are transported back in time to witness how real sheepskins are made using time honoured methods of leather making - one of the oldest crafts known to man.
Here you can enjoy a free guided tour of our workshop where you will see all the traditional implements used by the Tanner: the beam, paddles, racks and buffing wheel, horse and iron as well as the lengthy hand finishing processes, which help to create the world famous Highland hand-combed fleece, which is exclusive to Skyeskyns.
After your tour why not visit our showroom and browse through our comprehensive range of luxurious fleeces and quality leather goods and knitwear. You’ll find the perfect place too for that exclusive and lasting keepsake of your visit to the magical Isle of Skye.
You will be assured of one of the warmest welcomes in the Highlands!
