We had true Scottish weather when arriving, which promptly caused us to miss the sign for the Smithy House and drive too far. We were greeted by the owner with such kindness and we truly enjoyed our stay in the cottage despite the weather. It's a beautifully transformed old barn and was very comfortable, with a nice view of the landscape with grazing sheep. The kitchen is well equipped, so we were able to cook a warm dinner. Just wish we could have stayed a bit longer. The area is just beautiful.

We loved the view and outdoor space. Kirsteen was the perfect hostess and provided us with a lot of information. Breakfast was great and we enjoyed chatting with the other guests. We were so lucky to experience the Aurora during our visit and shared the experience with the other guests and deer.

Great BandB in a wonderful location. The owners were great people who really looked after their guests and made them feel very welcome. Made lots of suggestions on what to see on the way there and organised a great restaurant for dinner.

Really liked that the place is in a quiet area with parking right at the front gate.
Bed is really comfy and there's enough space in the kitchen to whip up a quick breakfast if needed.
Didn't get a chance to try out the jacuzzi as the weather was bad, though still appreciated the views of the loch through the window.

I stayed 3 nights in one of these cute little pods. They were perfect for a solo traveler – cozy, great size, and with all the necessities (including microwave, kettle, stove, & oven). Great location near the beach and for exploring the area.

Lochinver is a place where a couple of nights stay would work in order to explore the surrounding area. Make sure you do the single track roads to see the stunning scenery. Restaurants need booking before you arrive in Lochinver.

Nice small town (village?), with everything you need.
Nice small town (village?), with everything you need. Shops, restaurants, a bank is coming 2 times a week on wheels, but ATM and paying by card is no novelty there. ;-) Nice people, everyone is greating everyone. Best for hiking the surroundings, I will sure come back for sure.

A small coastal town well worth using as a base for a few days to explore the west coast. A variety of restaurants, coffee shops and tourists shops to explore. A great location for walking tracks and some beautiful beaches. Beware the single track roads, some of them they can be narrow in spots! but every seems to drive slowly which is good :) We were there in mid-September and the northern lights were visible one evening, a lovely bonus.

A small fishing village but with all the amenities - petrol, snack food, restaurants - that any traveller could wish for. Close to the famous Suilven mountain that is accessible via a moorland path and then some climbing. I ate at Delilah's and was not disappointed with either the food - delicious burger - and drink - craft lager. The harbour looks too big, but I gather they do unlad some large quantities of fish here. Not many midges (late August) but often cloud-covered. However, one has to make the most of the weather and predict when the rain will come. All the shops and other amenities within easy walking distances and many re-cycling stations.

Lochinver is located in an area of outstanding natural beauty. Nestled on the beautiful north western coast and surrounded by spectacular mountains and lochs with an endless array hiking trails to enjoy. The coastal views are amazing as there are rocky outcrops and islands of various shapes and sizes. Self catering is the best option but there are a number of eating places in Lochinver with a good range of options. Road links are surprisingly good given the location but if you want to go off and explore there are many smaller single track roads to take you on an adventure just watch out for the many mobile homes and converted vans that you may encounter.

The space in the Smithy was delightful and very comfortable.
The space in the Smithy was delightful and very comfortable. We could have stayed in all day enjoying the wood burning stove and the array of books and CDs! Everything was provided for two people, and the beds were the best we experienced in our 10 day visit to the Scottish highlands!
Fabulous pod, well equipped with everything supplied for a comfortable stay. The location is superb, perched up high overlooking Lochinver with a lovely decking area. Unfortunately the weather wasn't overly kind to us, however we were more than happy to cook, eat, drink and watch the weather from within the cosy pod. The beds were really comfortable and there was a surprisingly good amount of storage. The hosts were incredibly kind and helpful.
I would thoroughly recommend Suil na Mara and hope to return soon!
Stunning views, watching sky and sea change. Mountains in background.
Occasional sheep bleating, sound of wind and waves.
Stylish, Cosy, very comfortable pod with great energy, feeling of peace
Highly recommend the area and accomodation
Drive from Lochinver narrow, harrowing in rain but glad I returned same way. Scenery well worth it
As were Lochinver larder pies. Closed Sunday
Loved the cabin with its stunning views. It is a wild area with a lovely beach a short distance away. However, it is also close to the restaurants of Lochinver.. Willie and Dorothy are excellent hosts .making sure we had everything we needed. The weather was exceptionally hot and sunny, but it would be lovely here in less good weather as well. Hope to return.
Beautiful location close to Lochinver but remote, with deer in the garden, hens roaming, strawberries in window boxes and firewood stacked decoratively. Great hosts, emanating cosiness and enthusiasm for self sustainability and the local area. Breakfast was all homemade or locally sourced, lots of teas to choose from and lovely toiletries in the bathroom
We had a great stay at the Albannach. The host is very hospitable and helpful. The suite was fantastic, comfortable, and very spacious. What stands out is the lovely home-cooked breakfast we were served every morning. Absolutely brilliant. We were sorry to leave after 2 nights as there are so many things to explore in the area as well.
Wonderful little cottage. Perfect location for a NC500 stopover just outside Lochinver. Very friendly and attentive host. Comfortable single beds (which is sometimes a rarity). Great bathroom. Not too far from the cliffs and lighthouse which make for a stunning sunset view. Would love to come back for longer!
The property was well situated in Lochinver, easy walking distance to local food and drink with a lovely view. Breakfast was plentiful and tasty in the morning and the host could not have been more friendly and welcoming. The rooms were fresh, warm and well appointed with lovely views across the loch.
Everything! David and Irene are absolutely awesome. Our room was really great snd breakfast was superb. David and Irene made you feel so welcomed and we felt like we were family. They suggested Delilah’s for dinner and what a great choice. If we ever get back to Lochinver we would stay there!
This is a very roomy and well equipped apartment located a stones throw from Lochinver harbour, great views from the kitchen window. Parking is off road with additional space across the road if you have more then one vehicle. Peet's restaurant is right next door and worth booking.
A beautiful cottage in a fabulous area. Had everything we needed for a great stay. The log fire was great, it was a perfect place, away from it all! we warmed our pies and mash from the local lochinver larder.
Beautiful hotel in a lovely location, we loved waking up to the beautiful view over the loch. The hosts were great and have done a brilliant job of tastefully refurbing the hotel. Also loved the breakfast!
Good location on a hill overlooking Lochinver. It was comfortable, well equipped and furnished and very quiet. Lochinver’s surrounds offer great walking opportunities with magnificent scenery.
Beautiful location clise to Lochinver. Room in Lodge clean and beautifully furnished and comfortable. Breakfast plentiful and owners of the lodge friendly and welcoming.
The room was very comfortable and the continental breakfast was well stocked with choices. The host was personable and very informative about the area around Lochinver.
Kirsteen was an wnthusiastic enthusiastic and attentive host. The position was beautiful and the room comfortable with its own sitting area. Free parking and WiFi.
Everyone was surprised how clean and comfortable their rooms were. Easily the best accommodation we had on our trip, wish we could stay couple of nights longer!
