A HIGHLAND SECRET OVER 20 YEARS IN THE MAKING - TRUSTED BY TRAVELLERS SINCE 2001. FAMILY OWNED AND OPERATED BY MUM & SON
SCENT, STILLNESS & SOMETHING SWEET, THE FULL ASSYNT AROMAS EXPERIENCE
Soap & Candle Shop
Possibly the most remote Soap & Candle shop on the UK mainland.
Tucked away in the far north-west Highlands, we invite you to pop in, slow down, and experience our scents. Take your time — we have plenty of testers ready for you to explore.
Over the years, we’ve carefully developed an extensive collection to suit every taste, each one carrying a subtle Highland influence. Our own unique blends are available as aromatherapy candles, natural wax melts, handmade cold-process soaps, nourishing creams and botanical balms.
You’ll also find our dedicated Pooch range for four-legged friends, alongside our much-loved men’s grooming collection.
Everything is made by hand, using natural ingredients, crafted with care and without compromise.
"A hidden gem! This lovely shop sells not only handmade aromatic soap, candles, lotion etc. but also has one of the nicest secluded tea-gardens I have ever seen. This place lies off the beaten track, go the extra mile and discover this beauty in the Highlands of Scotland. A must see"!!
The Secret Tea Garden @ Assynt Aromas
Behind our wee Soap & Candle shop lies a little Highland secret.
Step through the back door and you’ll discover our hidden garden oasis — a peaceful, sheltered space tucked beneath a canopy of parasols, where time slows, conversation softens, and the kettle is always on.
Surrounded by the quiet beauty of Assynt, settle into a calm corner and enjoy fresh scones with clotted cream, generous cakes, savoury bites, good coffee, a variety of teas, cold drinks and ice cream.
It’s relaxed, informal and unhurried. Stay and soak up the atmosphere, or grab something delicious for the road. We don’t take bookings — simply first come, first served — and somehow, we always find space for everyone.
Dogs are very welcome (with well-behaved humans in tow).
Please note: public toilets are located at the Drumbeg Viewpoint.
" Stopped off at this lovely hidden coffee/candle shop and was amazed! From the outside it looks like a shed, but went in and found a lovely shop with handmade candles, wax melts and moisturisers. Out the back is a little garden, covered in umberellas. Had an amazing coffee & cake, while my partner had a cheeseboard. Felt so relaxed and chilled whilst sitting in. Bought some wax melts as a gift as they smelt amazing".
"A rainy day on our NC500 trip by motorcycle! Stopped at the viewpoint at Drumbeg and noticed the secret tea garden sign (i do love a candle as well) so we popped in and were not disappointed! lovely green tea, scone, coffee and cake in a peaceful leafy setting even nice when damp. Lovely candles, soaps etc as well really made my day on a long wet ride"
