An ideal spot if you are a walker, sadly we aren't so our optionswere limited. We would recommend Inverewe Gardens which were lovely and suitable for a mobility scooter. The Co op at Gairloch is excellent. The cottage was warm, well equipped, clean and comfortable. The bed was cosy and comfortable. We had a lovely informative welcome from Mrs McLean.

We looked our stay at the cottage, the cottage itself is clean and tidy and has everything you need. There's a shop 2 minute walk away and cafe close by to. We would definitely stay there again.

Unfortunately we had a very wet stay on our fishing trip but with a day and a half of good weather.Mind you September is the peak time for rain in Gairloch/Poolewe.The house was immaculate and well equipped. Beds very comfortable.
