Fair Isle Artist in Residency & Auld Haa Guesthouse Self-catering




New Adventure! I am starting the Fair Isle Residency Project. 
Artist - Adventurers - Scientists - Craftpeople
Creative types and hard workers wishing to stay 2 weeks or more can apply for this opportunity.

  If you are willing to stay in my Son's room while he is away at University and give me 20 hours a week of work we might be able to make an arrangement. The work would be physical, gardening, maintenance, house painting, cleaning, etc. After a video chat interview, if you are selected and a time slot is vacant and agreed upon, your stay at the Auld Haa will be self-catered with plenty of free time to enjoy Fair Isle and creative pursuits. If selected use of my Artist Studio at the South Lighthouse a close walk away will also be yours to use and enjoy. At the end of your stay, I would like a work of your art for my collection.

Only a few residencies a year will be offered. 
I am taking applications now for Spring 2021 (sometime in April or May)

   This may seem to be a great deal seeing how I sometimes rent Henry's room for £100.00 a day. Remember not to over idealize it. I'm sort of a wild guy needing some help getting some stuff done in a place it's hard to find people to help. I like to help other artists too, I know a visit to Fair Isle is an inspiration for a lifetime. If you have a grant or sabbatical and want to work out a longer stay without the work hours and a reduced rate let's talk. If you are traveling with a partner or friend let me know, that might work too. It's all new and I am working with new ideas.

Please contact me through my Facebook or Instagram messenger.

A preference for longer visits from guests is the new normal.

1 person, 1 room - £70.00 

2 persons, 1 room - £120.00

living room, Garden & Wireless Internet.

One large size bed in each room, very luxurious for one…
made to comfortably sleep two. Shared bathroom.

♦ Price includes Breakfast, Dinner & Dessert ♦
No Lunch


 Food is bought at full retail from Stackhoull Store. Supporting another Fair Isle business as well.

You can pay this much for just a room in most places in Britain.
And we are the most remote! not surprising most things cost more here.

2 persons, 1 room - £160.00 

The Auld Haa has two guestrooms and a third room if necessary, to accommodate children,  students, stranded day-trippers, and desperate birdwatchers when a rare bird is about... 
I may find a bed for you. So give Tommy a call. 01595 760 349

If you want Student Rates, (25 or under with student ID.)
Woofing or can help around the house and garden let me know.
Maybe we can work something out?

This is not a fancy Guesthouse! no lace doilies here.
This is staying in a weird artist's home full of curious art and objects.
Be warned the Auld Haa is run by an independent wild man,
the type of person that would live on a remote island. 

I run the Guesthouse mostly alone,
or sometimes with help from my son or another Islander.

Family-style meals at a shared table. 
A very relaxed atmosphere.
The house cleaning could be better I know!
Most people think it is quite an experience, to say the least.
I have been welcoming guests to my home since 2007.
No one has died yet, but a few almost from laughing.

  4. The global Sports and Energy Drinks Market size reached US$ 93.3 Billion in 2020. Looking forward, the market expects to exhibit moderate growth during 2021-2026.Sports drinks refer to beverages containing carbohydrates, electrolytes, proteins, vitamins, and caffeine which help in building muscles and replenishing the fluid lost during exercise or any other physical activity. On the other hand, energy drinks consist of a higher amount of sugar and caffeine. These drinks improve mental alertness and relieve fatigue, as opposed to sports drinks which are intended to help athletes rehydrate after exercise.They are also introducing sports drinks fortified with antioxidants, and soy and whey proteins. Apart from this, energy and sports drinks are gaining popularity, especially among the young generation, as the manufacturers are adopting aggressive marketing and branding strategies by associating with popular sports events.
