Dalelia or Dalilea (from Scottish Gaelic: Dàil Eileadh) is collection of houses on the north shore of Loch Shiel in Acharacle district of Argyll, Scottish Highlands and is in the Scottish council area of Highland. Kinlochmoidart is to the north. The alternate Gaelic name "Dàil an Leigh" has been suggested but this is believed to be a folk etymology for Dàil Eileadh. It is perhaps most famous as the birthplace of the renowned 18th century Gaelic poet Alasdair mac Mhaighstir Alasdair; his father and elder brother held the tack. Today, Dalilea is a working farm with self-catered accommodation for tourists and boats for hire.
