  We had the most amazing 4 nights at the Gables. When we arrived we were blown away by the location. As others mention, the conservatory is perfect for sitting gazing... read more out at the gorgeous views of the Summer Isles..and it’s heated so even when the suns not out it’s lovely and toasty! The house is lovely- super comfy beds and very clean and tidy. This is literally the best dog friendly place we’ve stayed in. Apart from friendly touches like the dog bowls, you wouldn’t know dogs had been there, it’s that tidy!!

Linda had left some delicious home made jam and shortbread and the worlds best Easter Brownies - which were perfect energy replacements on the local walks!

The location is about 10 min walk from Auchiltibuie, Where there is a Shop and a nice hotel for food. For lunches in the piping cafe are great and again very dog friendly.

The cottage has everything you would need in the kitchen, soap, big fluffy towels and great views from all rooms!

Nearby behind the cottage is a lovely walk up Fairie hill, and we really enjoyed Inverkirkcaig waterfalls and the fantastic Stac Pollaidh.

All in All a great holiday! Thanks Linda- we’ll be back!!

  The Gables is a superb cottage, with stunning views across to the Summer Isles. The Owner, Linda, has equipped this cottage so that everything you need is there and more... read more besides. We stayed for a week, but wish we'd stayed at least two, to better explore what the area has to offer. If you want good walking, stunning scenery, great drives, peace and quiet this is for you. You can buy good, local food in the Achiltibuie store, plus petrol at the same price as Ullapool. The Am Furam bar, a short drive from the cottage, is a lovely little pub/restaurant. Our dog loved the wonderful sandy beach at Achnahaird Bay. It really was a holiday to remember.

  The Gables was everything we hoped for, and more. Much more. We arrived in the dark, to a warm & cosy house, with lights on, fire set, and a lovely... read more welcoming note from Linda. The cottage is beautifully appointed, tastefully furnished; and we found the extra touches (roses, candles...) really contributed to our overall 5* experience. The cottage is set in a secluded garden, in a fine setting, with stunning sea views. We ate both nights in Am Fuaran; and as always received a warm welcome, and enjoyed delicious fresh sea food. We'll be back staying in The Gables for a week in April; and we are looking forward to that already! Thank you, Linda.

  Gables Cottage is the best holiday house that we have stayed at in the 30 odd years that we have been coming to this area.The kitchen is particularly well equipped... read more and the sitting room and bedrooms are most comfortable.
The views over the sea to the Summer Isles from the sun room and the garden are breathtaking especially when the sun is going down.
We would recommend the Am Fuaran pub,"Salt," the seafood kitchen and the Piping school cafe for eating out and the Achiltibuie Stores for every other need.
We highly recommend Gables Cottage and we are grateful to Linda, the owner, who has thought of everything to make this holiday cottage perfect. We hope to return.
