Luxury self-catering accommodation in Ullapool
If you’re looking for natural beauty with a side of sublime solitude then Ullapool in the Northern Highlands should be on your travel list this year.
Visitors arriving in this northern corner of Scotland will have travelled through miles of amazing scenery by the time they get to Ullapool, a fishing town tucked into the side of Loch Broom, and the town itself does not disappoint. It's a scenic gateway to the scattering of islands that make up the Outer Hebrides, and a busy hub, with ferries shuttling to Lewis and back. The town museum, a beautiful building that began life as a church, has a section on those who sailed here from Nova Scotia in 1773, a poignant reminder of the town's maritime heritage.
Ullapool is about an hour north of Inverness airport, so it's easily accessible for those flying in, and the road trip from the airport to town is an event in itself, with looping roads cresting stunning slopes. There will be more than one stop-off en route to pause awhile and take it all in. With a backdrop of soaring mountains and wild walking routes, those who visit Ullapool can look forward to a good range of challenging hikes during their stay. If you arrive by ferry, pop to the nearby Seafood Shack and form an orderly queue for a carton of freshly caught delights.
