We stayed here for 1 night a few weeks ago. We booked it last minute as we were due to camp but the weather was too windy and wet. Iain was very helpful, booking us in last minute and very friendly and receptive on arrival....More

Four of us stopped with Iain during a motorcycle tour of Scotland. The bunkhouse can cater for 8 people in two different rooms with a lounge and kitchen facility in the middle. Ideal for motorcyclists, cyclists,walkers and generally anyone that is visiting the area. Would...More

We stayed in the B&B part of the house with a separate entrance. Breakfast you take at the owners dinnertable, wich is sympa. The place is nice, family friendly, has a garden and compared to other B&B a bargain.

Iain is an excellent host, and does a mean breakfast, best porridge we had!! Excellent room with the forest view, hard standing to the front for bikes, bad gravel to the rear though so talk to Iain before riding round the back. Highly recommend will...More

Drove past Forest Way after coming down from a three day wild camp. Had a room to ourselves. Each room has 4 beds & its own shower room. Warm, comfortable & has a great drying room. Found Iain a social host without being overbearing. Thanks...More

I've stayed here twice now. It's a fine wee bunkhouse, comfortable beds, good showers and ideally located for plenty of local hills, with the Fannichs, Deargs and An Teallach in easy reach, and not too long a drive to get into those lovely Assynt hills. The owner is a keen walker and has a lot of excellent local knowledge. You also get a free beer. Highly recommended 🙂

Great little bunkhouse in a very convenient location for bagging loads of Munros and Corbetts :). Comfortable beds, a decent kitchen and an effective drying room. I've stayed a couple of times and will certainly return. Iain (the owner) is also an invaluable source of advice on hill routes.

It is a nice little place. The bunk house is well maintained and it’s neat and clean. Host is really warm and helpful in nature. The kitchen is also well equipped. I would suggest this place to everyone who wanna go up to grave or Ullapool.

Iain and his dad were some of the nicest people we met on our trip through and round Scotland we couldn't have asked for more! The room we stayed in we paid a little extra for to book it out, it was very clean and tidy with a lovely drive area to sit outside. The area around this site should be considered an area of outstanding natural beauty. I would highly recommend staying here if you are in the area!

I had just cycled DOWIS, Dover to Western Isles and this made a great change after a month in my tent. £20 was great with me. Comfy bed, good hot shower, nice kitchen and a warm welcome. Thank you

Me and 2 friends bunked here for 1 night. Lovely little place surrounded by forests, very peaceful. You can hear the water flowing nearby which creates a tranquil environment. The owner, Ian is a lovely man. His family is also on the site who are also lovely people. The communal area in the bunkhouse was spacious and offered everything you need. Each guest room has an en suite with 4 bunks in each room. You can also rent these rooms so if you're with a small group you can create a private area. If I ever do the nc500 again I will stay here!
