It's been a dry (and windy) winter and a wet spring here on Skye.
It's nice to live in a rain forest while the rest of Europe is struggling in the heat. Frogs rule on

Quite the contrast between winter and spring for the UK.

Join Us at Rubha Phoil, a Regenerative Culture Community on Skye, Scotland -- A Summer Invitation (or Longer)

Rubha Phoil is designed for these times.

In a world that often feels uncertain, disconnected, and fast-moving, we are creating something different here -- a grounded and supportive place to live, work, raise children, and imagine new ways forward together.

Remote yet connected, safe yet open, Rubha Phoil is steadily growing into a resilient ecosystem -- with increasing self-sufficiency in food and energy, shared knowledge, meaningful work, and people who genuinely care for one another and the land around them.

This summer, we’re opening the doors to new members -- whether for a trial period, a season of change, or perhaps something more long-term.

We’re especially looking for:
• Individuals with practical, creative, entrepreneurial, or land-based skills
• People who are curious about community living, collaboration, and a more intentional way of life
• We’re also beginning something special -- a small “gang” of kids growing up side by side, learning wildly from the land, from each other, from meaningful work, and from life beyond screens and rigid systems. So we're looking for families with children who would love to live close to nature and be part of an emerging village environment. Ideally we'd love two families joining around the same time so childcare, friendship, and support can grow naturally together.

There are opportunities here too:
• Ways to earn within the community
• Space and support to build your own project or business
• Possibilities for partnership, collaboration, and creating something meaningful together
• bring your own tiny home, rent a caravan or a house from us.
See the house here: http://rubhaphoil.org/house-for-rent
Apply or express interest here: https://www.rubhaphoil.org/volunteer/

If something in this speaks to you -- or to someone you know -- we’d love to hear from you.

Let’s build something real, together.

Happy to announce a new night shift security guard has joined the team at Rubha Phoil 👀🐾
Slightly intense eye contact, questionable working hours, and absolutely no interest in paying council tax… but we’re delighted to welcome this cheeky pine marten to the neighbourhood.
