9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (32 reviews)
"The staff were ok, specifically the gentleman at breakfast, but as it was the start of the season and the hotel was empty it lacked any kind of atmosphere. The room was very disappointing and dated, in particular the bathroom, which was not very clean and like it was a scene from the 1970’s. The hotel was sadly very poor value for money-very over priced! The location is perfect IF you have a Seaview, and a room away from a corridor door that bangs closed every time someone comes through...

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Achiltibuie?
The best area to stay in Achiltibuie is the main village itself, particularly around the B856 road.

This area offers the most convenient access to local amenities and the stunning coastal scenery. You'll find the village shop, the local pub, and community hall all within easy reach. The landscape here is characterised by crofting townships, sandy beaches, and views out to the Summer Isles.

For families, staying within the main village is ideal. The proximity to the community hall, which often hosts local events, and the nearby beaches like Achnahaird Bay provides easy entertainment. Kids can enjoy exploring the shoreline and the nearby hills, and the village's compact nature means everything is just a short walk or drive away.

Couples seeking a peaceful retreat will also find the main village appealing. The quiet roads and breathtaking views make for a relaxing stay.
When is the best time to go to Achiltibuie?
The best time to go to Achiltibuie is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is at its mildest and the days are long.

These months offer the most comfortable conditions for exploring the outdoors, with average temperatures ranging from 12°C to 18°C. The extended daylight hours, especially in June and July, mean you'll have plenty of time to enjoy activities like hiking, boat trips to the Summer Isles, or simply taking in the coastal views. This period is ideal for couples and families looking to make the most of the natural beauty without the chillier temperatures and shorter days of other seasons.

For those who prefer a quieter experience and don't mind cooler temperatures, late spring (May) or early autumn (September) can also be good options. The landscape is often stunning with wildflowers in May or changing colours in September, and there are fewer visitors around.
