Amazing for the writing, even better for the soul! Never been to a place so calming and tranquil in my whole life. Loved every minute of being here.

Dawn from the house

Located midway between Gairloch and Ullapool, and about 1.5 hours from Inverness, the house is an ideal base for hill walking, mountaineering and sea based pursuits. The local Post Office is 5 minutes away by car, and sells fuel and a good range of provisions. There are more extensive shops and hotels at Poolewe and Gariloch.

If you don't want to do healthy stuff, indulge yourself on the wonderful beaches around the area. Gruinard beach is 5 minutes by car, Mellon Udrigle beach is 15 minutes away, and are both wonderful places to spend a warm sunny day.

If you don't want to cook there are two hotels serving bar meals, 20 minutes away at Gairloch. Alternatively there is a wide range of fine food available at Ullapool and a lovely Pub with amazing views at Badachro (The Badachro Inn).
