Isle of Erraid

Erraid is a Wild, Beautiful island. Do you long for a holiday with a difference? Come and visit us!

A beautiful Scottish Island in the Inner Hebrides where our spiritual community – part of the Findhorn Foundation – lives and works together within the cycles of sea and land.

Another chick to add to the coop. This is Russel, named after one of our devoted volunteers who looked after them so lovingly during his stay with us in May. Welcome to the world Russel…

“One of the best things in life is sharing a meal with others. It’s a universal experience. No matter where you go, sitting down and breaking bread together is about as human as it gets.” — Anthony Bourdain

‘We often forget that we are nature.

Nature is not something separate from us. So when we say we have lost our connection to nature, we’ve lost our connection to ourselves’

Last month we were blessed with sunny weather and sunny company in the name of our first seaweed focused workshop week. A gang of female artists from Holland who were brought together and guided by our divine neighbour and friend, Miek. These women were all artists of different forms, mixing with our community of volunteers and members. It was inspiring and delightful.

We danced with seaweed, harvested it, played with it, ate it and delighted in it. Here are some photos, most of them from Ellen (thank you!)

WORKSHOP ALERT!!🔔

We’ve got a fantastic week coming up in October. Our very own ex-community member Leen will give a willow basket weaving masterclass where you’ll learn to make your very own lineup of stunning baskets from local willow. This is open to complete beginners…

The week will be ‘intertwined’ with the rhythm of the island community to include shared meals (from our organic gardens) and optional meditation and meetings.

At the end of the week you will go home with your self-made baskets and lots of new skills and memories!

Are you tired?
Overstimmed?
Overwhelmed?
In recovery?
Seeking inspiration?

We get it. And we have a solution.

A retreat week on Erraid offers a rare chance to slow down. From the moment of pick up, you’ll be gently welcomed into a place where you are free to come exactly as you are.

Two nourishing meals a day from our organic gardens and group meditation exist against the steady backdrop of a small working community.

Some guests come to focus on personal projects such as reading, writing or painting. Others come to rest, reset and spend time in quiet reflection.

With almost no light or noise pollution, this island offers a stillness that is hard to find elsewhere. Our structure is intentionally light, giving you the freedom to shape the week to your needs.

Upcoming retreats so far this year are May 30th - June 5th and September 5-11th.

More dates will be added later in the season.

Visit our website to book and we will be honoured to have you stay with us…
