It has been put up for sale through Scottish property consultancy, Galbraith.
Phiddy Robertson of Galbraith, Inverness, said: "The smokehouse offers an excellent opportunity for those looking to acquire an established and profitable business that brings with it a change of lifestyle in a beautiful and unique coastal setting.
"In addition, the demand for ethical food production, the growing economy of the west coast and the positive impact of the North Coast 500 offer further opportunities both in business and tourism and we expect a lot of interest in this sale."
