Hotels in West Highlands

Archie Bouverie's guide:
West Highlands

The West Highlands is defined on PrivateHouseStays as the area from the Summer Isles north of Ullapool to Morvern in North Argyll. The coastline meanders round beautiful sandy beaches and wild low population inlets with idyllic little villages and winding roads taking in Gairloch, Torridon, Plockton & Kyle of Lochalsh, Knoydart, Mallaig, Ardnamurchan and Morvern. It is much recommended that this area is toured by car but it must be done by taking your time, stopping to admire the scenery, allowing a few hours to climb up the hills to get the best viewpoints or allowing yourself (or your children) time to run wild amongst the sheep or on the beaches

What is a Small Hotel?

Private small hotels can (though not as a rule!) be the best and most exclusive accommodation to be found anywhere in Britain and are often to be found in converted country houses in the most beautiful gardens or on mini-estates. They can usually be booked on a full-board or Bed and Breakfast basis but expect tariffs to be at the more expensive end of the market. Learn more about accommodation types
