Visitors to the Balegowrie, Baile Geamhraidh in Gaelic come from all over the world. It surprises us greatly to see people litterally from every corner of the globe appear on our doorstep. Some come to see the house, particluarly architecture students, others come to spend some time in the garden. The main reason for having an open day every week is to provide a social space and to provide vegetables, eggs and bread to our friends on the island. But many others from farther away enjoy just to be here too.

The House
The house is proving to be a long term project. It will be great to live in once it is finished. It is a very ecological design, built with a lot of insulation, with solar gain and low running costs in mind. Water is collected from the sky, heat is generated from the occupants.

Shetland Cattle
We are developing a small herd of of pedigree Shetland cattle. These are smallet thank many other breeds, are horned, easy to manage, deliscious to eat and can provide high quality rich milk. We will have meat for sale from time to time.
