Location

Eight miles north of Ullapool you see the signpost for Achiltibuie. Continue through 16 miles of beautiful scenery, past Stac Polly and Loch Oskaig and on to the coast. Drive through the village of Achiltibuie until you reach the Badenscallie township signpost. The chalet is just beyond this and for Willie's House you follow the signpost to the burial ground a quarter of a mile further on.

Full directions are provided when you book.
