One of the last things that you expect to find on Skye is a batik shop. This gem that we almost missed has so many quirky Celtic patterns mixed with traditional batik styles it’s great for bringing back gifts. The sales assistant was super helpful and friendly and they have a ‘man crèche’ with sofas and free coffee if you need a sit down while the other person your with takes 20 minutes to decide on cushion covers. They have a website that I know I’ll be ordering a few Christmas presents from later in the year.

Really cool shop with unique celtic pattern inspired batiks. Clothes, wall hangers, bags — even toys! Very friendly staff that even offers coffee — free of charge. When they opened up in 1987 the demand was so high they could not keep up producing, in particular because of drying time of the batiks took several months at Skye. In order to survive and grow they moved and opened up a new facility in Sri Lanka(where the weather also does shorten the time of drying). They currently employ 4 sewers at Skye that produce and design what they sell.
