Set in Ullapool, Harbour House has a garden. This guest house offers luggage storage space and free WiFi.

The private bathroom is fitted with a bath or shower. The units in Harbour House are equipped with a flat-screen TV and free toiletries. We arrived at the b&b on a rainy and cold day and we were warmly welcomed by the staff at the reception - we deeply appreciated the welcome drink and the homemade shortbread cookies. The room was clean, with everything you need and with a wonderful view on the loch. The breakfast was nice, especially the English breakfast options provided as well as the continental breakfast options. The staff working at the b&b is friendly and very kind, they give good suggestions on restaurants and on things to do

Brambles of Inveraray is set in Inveraray. With free WiFi, this 4-star inn offers a 24-hour front desk. The property is non-smoking and is located less than 1 km from Inveraray Castle.

Guest rooms at the inn are equipped with a seating area and a TV. Each room is equipped with a kettle and a private bathroom with a shower and a hairdryer, while some rooms are equipped with a kitchen equipped with a fridge. We loved our stay of 2 nights in the Garden suite! Simply amazing! When we arrived we had a very nice warm welcome of Victoria, one of the owners of Brambles of Inverary. The Garden suite is just lovely! Amazing comfortable beds and sofa in front of the tv. My compliments to the housekeeper who specially arranged the stuffed animals of my daughter on her bed when we came back in our room. This totally made her feel really special. Brambles had their own restaurant and coffee café accross the street. In their restaurant they serve during the day nice lunches including amazing pastries and cakes. I was personally in heaven with 1 of their specialties, the blue berry lemon curd cake with lemon frosting. It's a good thing for my health that I do not live here haha. The first night we also had dinner at the restaurant of Brambles. This was also really excellent. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. This restaurant is nice for any kind of group. In the morning we had breakfast at Brambles which was included. You could choose something cooked from the menu and you were able to take anything you wanted from the counter. Like croissants, cereals or juices. We had Eggs Benedict, very tasty! Brambles is located at the main street of Inverary. Within 10 minutes walk of the Inverary castle and 1 minute walk of the Inverary Jail. Both I definitely recommend to visit! In the area there are also really nice hikes you can do for example go up the mountain 250 metres high to the look out point of Dun Na Cuaiche. Trust me it's worth it! The view at Inverary and Loch Fyne is breahttaking! Next time if Inverary is on our route, we will again book our stay with Brambles!

Situated in the town of Pitlochry, Atholl Villa Guest House is a privately owned Victorian building, offering views of Ben Vrackie. It has free parking and retains many original features, such as open fireplaces and wooden sash windows. Amazing place to stay. Right in Pitlochry. Walked everywhere. We had a room on the top floor with a view looking down towards the Main Street. Hosts were the best and nothing was a bother. Breakfast was delicious. Would definitely stay again. Easy parking too.

The Loch Ness Inn is located in the village of Lewiston, near the Great Glen Way. It offers rooms with free WiFi and free parking. The property is 0.7 miles from Drumnadrochit and 1.5 miles from Urquhart Castle.

The rooms are simple but comfortable, and the restaurant and bar are cosy and elegant. Refresh with a Highland real ale form the local Loch Ness Brewery after a day on The Great Glen Way. Everything was perfect. Lovely staff, lovely room, very clean - great shower. The breakfast was excellent 👌 No issues parking and it's free of charge. There's a coop and the village just down the road as well, where you can get anything you might need. The village is so pretty.
