The staff were some of the most friendly, attentive, and welcoming people we met!! We stayed 2 nights, but if we could have spent the whole holiday there we would have. Cannot say enough positive things about the chef and her food, she pours her heart and soul into it and it is AMAZING. Highly, highly, highly recommend to anyone considering staying here to do it!!! You will not regret it.

We felt truly relaxed at the Heatherbank Guest House. Paul and Lorna were very welcoming and keen to offer suggestions for places to visit. Paul's porridge is amazing. The best porridge I've ever had, and I'm not exaggerating. A great lounge area for a nightcap and offering great views in the morning. Really recommend staying here.

The village is in a really beautiful place on the edge of a loch.
It has all of the amenities you could wish for- a well stocked shop, a takeaway and a lovely cozy cafe. We really enjoyed our day there.

Acharacle is an ideal central location for exploring Moidart...
Acharacle is an ideal central location for exploring Moidart, Sunart and Ardnamurchan. There are plenty of short walks (up to 5km) within a 30-minute drive as well as more remote mountains, such as Ben Resipol. The driving distances aren't far but the roads are mostly single track so allow more time for courteous and careful driving. There are plenty of Forestry Commission car parks for wildlife hides and nature walks. There are fewer signposted mid-range walks (10-15km) but they do include the superb Silver Walk along the shores of Loch Moidart (starting from Tioram Castle) and the walks around Kentra Bay. The Ardnamurchan peninsula is stunning! The lighthouse guide is incredibly interesting and well-informed and Sanna Bay is beautiful. There's a nice walk there from Portuarik. There are boat trips on Loch Sunart and Loch Shiel. Acharacle is approx. 1 hour drive from Mallaig (ferry terminal) if you also want to visit the small islands (Eigg, Muck, Rum and Canna). It's a great base if you enjoy the outdoors and want to get away from the crowds.

Coille Darach is a first class B&B situated near Strontian in the Ariundle Forest. The house was new, immaculate and comfortable, the breakfasts excellent. Mary and her husband John were friendly, kind and helpful, we really enjoyed our all-too-short stay. The whole of the Ardnamurchan peninsula is wild, beautiful and very interesting geologically. Acharacle village is a few miles from Coille Darach, a pleasant place at the end of Loch Shiel (on which are boat trips) with sandy bays nearish at Kentra Bay and Ardtoe. Also near is Castle Tioram. Cafe Tioram at the end of the village provided a good light meal. Nearly all the roads (and there are very few) are single track so need care and courtesy, but are all part of the delight of the area.

This makes a superb base to explore the stunning Ardnamurchan Peninsula, especially trips to the lighthouse ( = furthest westerly tip of mainland UK), Mallaig and Glenfinnan Viaduct.
I would like to have stayed longer, so I could use the short ferry to the island of Islay.
The road to the lighthouse is a bit like being on the big dipper as it winds through the breathtaking countryside.
There was v little traffic when we went in late May - so it was an utter delight - but this would be v unpleasant, arduous and even dangerous if it was v busy.
The lighthouse itself is a superb attraction with an extraordinarily well stocked cafe considering the barren, remote location.
Mallaig is quite a nice town, and excellent for sea food, which, as a vegetarian was not for me, alas!
There's also Glenfinnan Viaduct which is certainly spectacular. There are also the beautiful and unspoilt golden sand beaches of Arkaig.
There are other attractions too, all wrapped up in the most glorious scenery and welcoming Scottish hospitality.
But think on:
Scotland is practically litter free, of which the Scottish and visitors can be truly proud.
KEEP IT THAT WAY OR STAY AWAY!

The village is in a very pretty area and within easy reach of beaches, a castle, and pleasant country walks.
Can recommend Ardnamurchan generally but remember WiFi signal is very patchy and it rains a lot! Also you definitely have to know how to drive safely on very small single track roads. Not for the faint hearted!
Basically everything, the cabin is wonderful, just like a little flat everything you would need for your stay, comfortable, warm, quiet. The views of Loch Shiel and the mountains around it and the hamlet of Dalnabreck, a shop a couple of miles down the road in Acharacle, if you forget things, great place to walk, all n all a fantastic place for a quiet get away.
Not to forget a helpful informative host, Becky, thanks very much.
Thanks for the card, chocolates and prosecco, which I didn't drink left it in the fridge.
The location in beautiful and quiet Acharacle was ideal. Our hosts were warm and welcoming and made sure we had the right parking space. The breakfast was made to order and they were flexible with some changes we requested. Delicious! We loved the little chats with the hosts after breakfast and their dogs added to the charm (though they were in the garden and we didn't go into the garden). They even booked us for dinner at the neighbouring pub on the evening we were checking in. Overall, a lovely stay, thank you!
It’s important more so as a solo traveler that you feel at home, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, my room was lovely and very comfortable, the bar a great place to have a drink and meet people and the restaurant served meals for all tastes that are delicious and well proportioned.
All the above was supported by great staff who bar none make you feel welcome. It all sounds a little gushing but that’s how I felt, I would love to visit the region again someday and make Loch Sheil hotel my temporary home of choice.

Exceptional property - beautiful location, stunning property with well thought out facilities in room. Delicious breakfast and friendly and helpful hosts - not to forget the lovely, comical dog :-) We had a most enjoyable stay - perfect for visiting the beautiful Peninsula. We had lovely meals at both the Aryundle Centre (just opposite the property - offering a ange of home-cooked meals) and also at the Strontian Hotel overlooking the Loch. Highly recommended.
On arrival my friends and I were met by Innes and Liz who made us feel at home immeadiatly. Innes gave us a lot of help with places to see and where to eat. Innes even booked us in at the local hotel for our evening meal for the nights we were there. Innes recommended the local garage, as we had a couple of minor problems with the car the garage were excellent and efficient, they also did a great job.
GORGEOUS hotel and I can't even begin with how amazing the food is. Portions are huge and by the end of the meal you are struggling to finish your plate- just because it's so good you don't want it to go to waste. The size of the room was perfect for us, and they left everything we could've needed in there.
Very isolated romantic location, out of the way. Nice view over the moor and glen. Nearby is a little castle ruin on an island in a glen (Tioram Castle), which we discovered only because we ended up staying in the area.
The Hotel has a nice bit more upscale restaurant, which is a nice change.
The location is ideal - right in the centre of the village of Acharacle, next to the store. The caravan was clean, decently-equipped and good value for money. Off-road parking.
The Cafe Tioram, a couple of minutes' walk along the road, is a great place for breakfast or lunch.
The location was ideal for our road trip around Scotland. The staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful we enjoyed the singing chef(a very happy chap). Great value and popular with locals and passing visitors to the area. Breakfast was included and really tasty.
What was there not to like? Warm, friendly welcoming hosts, fantastic comfy spacious spotless accomodation, beautiful location, scrumptious breakfast. I would be amazed if anyone could find a better place to stay in Acharacle, or anywhere for that matter.
Breakfast and dinner was well worth the cost and was delicious. The room was clean, comfortable and beautiful. The staff was friendly and helpful. The property was equipped with comforts, plenty of seating in public areas and a well stocked bar.
Lovely spacious, modern house. Had everything you could need. Stunning view, great location. The bed was so comfy, loved everything about it. Just a few minutes walk from local shop and hotel.
Such a lovely location to explore the area. We spent time in Kilchoan area and Sunna beach area. Lovely and peaceful! Silver Way is nearby for more beautiful walking.
