Scottish Highlands
The untamed wilderness of the Highlands is ideal walking territory – wooded glens, a rugged coastline, dramatic peaks, majestic lochs and misty isles. The spectacular scenery is best washed down with a wee dram from one of the region’s fine distilleries. If you’re looking for a taste of the Highlands, browse tips on how best to explore it.

    Achmelvich beach

    Posted by aTeaButNoE 31 May 2007

    Catch this white sand beach on a sunny day, with a school of dolphins in the turquoise sea and the extraordinary mountains of Assynt in the background. Take a photograph. Then try and convince your friends you really were in Scotland.

    Achmelvich beach

    Posted by Bonnie 16 May 2007

    Achmelvich beach, a few miles north-west of Lochinver is stunning.

    Take the three-mile single track road from Lochinver.

    One of the finest B&B establishments around. A stunning view of Quinag, Suilven and Stac Pollaidh from the balcony, this recently built spacious detached wooden house is situated a kilometer outside Lochinver. Beautifully clean, it boasts an outdoor hot tub to relax under the stars after a big day on the mountains. Fantastic hospitality - our host Mike arrived to pick us up with takeaway fish and chips after an 11 hour 'too late back for pub food' assault on the whole Suilven ridge as part of our Cape Wrath 250 mile trek.

    Breakfast is very hearty and meticulously timed and all at £22 a night per person. An amazing bargain for what you get.
