Ullapool

A Karen Brown Recommendation

Ullapool has a beautiful setting: cottages line the quay and overlook a jumble of slipways, quays, vessels from huge international trawlers to small wooden fishing boats, fishing gear, and nets. On the distant shore heather-clad hills rise steeply from the waters of Loch Broom. The port is a bustle of freighters and foreign fishing boats and is the terminal for the car ferry to Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis. Summer visitors add to the throng. You can always find good food and a reviving cup of coffee at The Ceilidh Place. North of Ullapool there’s a lot of heart-stopping scenery but beyond the Summer Isles there are no good places to stay. Journey to the Summer Isles by boat to see the seals and seabirds. Travel to Lochinver with its breathtaking views of beautiful coastline and visit the Inchnadamph Caves and the ruin of Ardvreck Castle.
