Set in Ullapool in the Highlands region, Highland Rooms - Room Only No Breakfast has a garden. This guest house offers free private parking and a housekeeping service. The guest house features family rooms. A superb property. The ‘room’ was in fact a suite of rooms at the back of a large bungalow. From the entry into the room from the property’s main hallway, the suite has a hallway with fridge and bag/case stand. Then you enter the main living space, which has a comfortable leather sofa, two person breakfast bar with very generous tea/coffee offer. The bathroom is actually a wet room because, opposite the wet room you have a sauna! Yes, a sauna, which I used three times after cold days on the mountains. The flooring is laid to allow you to go from sauna to shower and back again. I didn’t but you can if you like. Then there is the bedroom which also has a small dressing space where you hang your clothes. The bed is super comfortable (I like a bed as hard as a board and thought this one would be too soft, but I had three great night’s sleep). Finally, you have a ‘back door’ which is actually the private access to your suite. The hosts were welcoming and helpful when required (I couldn’t work out the digital TV but they sorted it whilst I was out having dinner in the excellent Argyll Arms, just five minutes walk into the village. Also try Oak and Grain for pizza). Overall, having visited Scotland hundreds of times in the past 25 years to climb its mountains, this is probably the best value accommodation I’ve booked. Thankyou so much. If I find a reason to come back to Ullapool (which I love), I’ll be heading straight back to the Highland Rooms. Thanks folks.
