Hidden Scotland, Issue 10, 2025
For their 10th Issue in 2025, Hidden Scotland featured Turadh as one of Scotland’s Ten Most Inspiring People and Projects: visionary entrepreneurs, ground breaking pioneers, outside-the-box thinkers and food and community heroes who are not afraid to shake things up.

“Taigh Whin is the ideal place to shelter. It was opened in June by garden designer Sarah MacLaren and her partner, artist and writer Sophie Howarth primarily for letting out to people working for the common good in Scotland, be they campaigners, carers, community leaders or volunteers, public servants, artists or activists.”
Positive News, July 2023
“From campaigners and carers to community leaders and artists – anyone working for the common good in Scotland is invited to apply, simply explaining how they would benefit from a stay.”
