Situated in the northwest corner of Skye and only 8 miles from Skyeskyns, Alastair and Glenys Maclean are running their croft rearing cows, sheep and chickens.
With panoramic views of Macleod’s Tables and Loch Bracadale, tradition is at the heart of their croft which has been in Alastair’s family for over 150 years.
As guardians of the land, sustainability is embedded in Alastair and Glenys’s ethos for their crofting practices. All animals are grass fed on the inbye pastures and hills, only being supplemented with feed such as silage and draff (a by-product from nearby Talisker distillery) during the harsh winter months.
They are delighted to be supplying Skyeskyns with quality lamb skins ensuring very little waste from the production of their quality meat products.
