Scenic Wester Ross
Much of Wester Ross is classified as a National Scenic Area - thus it is well worth a visit despite the many single-track roads which wind along the shores of the various sea lochs.
Ullapool is a picturesque fishing village which has a busy harbour but few visitor attractions other than its museum and an art studio. There are many local walks and boat trips to view the seabirds, dolphins and porpoises at the Summer Isles. A ferry runs from Ullapool to Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides. South of Ullapool are the spectacular Falls of Measach and the Corrieshalloch Gorge nature reserve that are both worth a visit.
The coastal border to the west provides many beautiful beaches on which to relax and cruises are available from the northern town of Ullapool to the Summer Isles for a spot of whale watching.
Quaint Villages to Explore
There are several villages with magnificent views and sandy beaches, including Gairloch, Poolewe and Inverewe (and the stunning Inverewe Gardens). Gruinard Bay is a beautiful area with a huge sandy beach and Dundonnel, at the tip of Little Loch Broom is a popular base for climbing the nearby An Teallach at 1,000 metres.
In the south are the quaint villages of Kishorn and Lochcarron where the wildlife conservation organisation WildAid has its base. A minor road from Kishorn travels west to the village of Applecross set amongst magnificent scenery with stunning views across to the island of Raasay. The road from Kishorn leads to the attractive village of Shieldaig and Torridon where the National Trust Countryside Centre provides information on the many walks in the area. The landscape in Glen Torridon is dramatic as the 1,000 metre mountains rise majestically from the valley.

14-May-2024 | Calderburn Cottage, Aberchalder CZ7 (overall) | We had a lovely break at Calderburn Cottage. It was spotlessly clean, very well equipped (we cooked dinner most nights), cosy, and comfortable, and has a lovely secure garden perfect for my dog. The location was perfect for exploring the lochs and mountains nearby, with fabulous low level and hillier walks right on the doorstep. | ||
14-May-2024 | The Hirsel BP9 (overall) | Be prepared to step into a world of isolated relaxation as soon as you turn into the estate. Beautiful, peaceful countryside with stunning views and local wildlife on your doorsteps. The cottage itself is excellent and supplied with everything you need for a break. The secure front garden was perfect for our dog to enjoy all day long. The area is fantastic with relatively easy walks to some local lochs through beautiful countryside. The only thing I can suggest would enhance the experience of the Hirsel would be a small garden table for resting a glass of wine on whilst soaking up the views. Will certainly return. | ||
