The hospitality! Every member of the team made me feel welcomed, like I was in their own living room. Joanna, Peter and Ross provided a truly relaxing experience. Service, food, drink, rooms, and atmosphere was perfect. I especially enjoyed the pub as the main center point for the hotel and the entire peninsula. It was a community gathering point and very friendly and welcoming. This hotel was full service in every way. Loved my stay and would definitely return!
With empty roads and even emptier hills, the Ben View Phenix Hotel is the perfect place to explore the best-kept secret in Britain - Ardnamurchan.

If you would like to experience some true Scottish hospitality, I urge you to stay here with Graham. He is the host with the most, a great guy with lots of heart and personality. A delicious homemade breakfast is included but I also recommend you try the reasonably priced dinners as well. Cosy clean rooms and lots to do and see in the area including the Isle of Mull. My family of 5 loved it here and extended our stay an extra night.
Coille Darach B&B is offering accommodations in Strontian. This bed and breakfast offers free private parking, a 24-hour front desk, and free Wifi.

The village is in a really beautiful place on the edge of a loch.
It has all of the amenities you could wish for- a well stocked shop, a takeaway and a lovely cozy cafe. We really enjoyed our day there.

Good wee shop. Fuel pumps are 10 miles away!
Local B & B do lovely meals if you book!
Nice friendly wee Village. Lovely sail up Loch Sween with running commentary of the history and sightings of Sea Eagles, Golden Eagles, Black Throated Divers and more! The sail ended at Kilfinnan with a service bus ride to Acharacle!
Perfect break and glorious weather for us🌞🤩

Acharacle is an ideal central location for exploring Moidart...
Acharacle is an ideal central location for exploring Moidart, Sunart and Ardnamurchan. There are plenty of short walks (up to 5km) within a 30-minute drive as well as more remote mountains, such as Ben Resipol. The driving distances aren't far but the roads are mostly single track so allow more time for courteous and careful driving. There are plenty of Forestry Commission car parks for wildlife hides and nature walks. There are fewer signposted mid-range walks (10-15km) but they do include the superb Silver Walk along the shores of Loch Moidart (starting from Tioram Castle) and the walks around Kentra Bay. The Ardnamurchan peninsula is stunning! The lighthouse guide is incredibly interesting and well-informed and Sanna Bay is beautiful. There's a nice walk there from Portuarik. There are boat trips on Loch Sunart and Loch Shiel. Acharacle is approx. 1 hour drive from Mallaig (ferry terminal) if you also want to visit the small islands (Eigg, Muck, Rum and Canna). It's a great base if you enjoy the outdoors and want to get away from the crowds.

Coille Darach is a first class B&B situated near Strontian in the Ariundle Forest. The house was new, immaculate and comfortable, the breakfasts excellent. Mary and her husband John were friendly, kind and helpful, we really enjoyed our all-too-short stay. The whole of the Ardnamurchan peninsula is wild, beautiful and very interesting geologically. Acharacle village is a few miles from Coille Darach, a pleasant place at the end of Loch Shiel (on which are boat trips) with sandy bays nearish at Kentra Bay and Ardtoe. Also near is Castle Tioram. Cafe Tioram at the end of the village provided a good light meal. Nearly all the roads (and there are very few) are single track so need care and courtesy, but are all part of the delight of the area.

This makes a superb base to explore the stunning Ardnamurchan Peninsula, especially trips to the lighthouse ( = furthest westerly tip of mainland UK), Mallaig and Glenfinnan Viaduct.
I would like to have stayed longer, so I could use the short ferry to the island of Islay.
The road to the lighthouse is a bit like being on the big dipper as it winds through the breathtaking countryside.
There was v little traffic when we went in late May - so it was an utter delight - but this would be v unpleasant, arduous and even dangerous if it was v busy.
The lighthouse itself is a superb attraction with an extraordinarily well stocked cafe considering the barren, remote location.
Mallaig is quite a nice town, and excellent for sea food, which, as a vegetarian was not for me, alas!
There's also Glenfinnan Viaduct which is certainly spectacular. There are also the beautiful and unspoilt golden sand beaches of Arkaig.
There are other attractions too, all wrapped up in the most glorious scenery and welcoming Scottish hospitality.
But think on:
Scotland is practically litter free, of which the Scottish and visitors can be truly proud.
KEEP IT THAT WAY OR STAY AWAY!

The village is in a very pretty area and within easy reach of beaches, a castle, and pleasant country walks.
Can recommend Ardnamurchan generally but remember WiFi signal is very patchy and it rains a lot! Also you definitely have to know how to drive safely on very small single track roads. Not for the faint hearted!
The location in beautiful and quiet Acharacle was ideal. Our hosts were warm and welcoming and made sure we had the right parking space. The breakfast was made to order and they were flexible with some changes we requested. Delicious! We loved the little chats with the hosts after breakfast and their dogs added to the charm (though they were in the garden and we didn't go into the garden). They even booked us for dinner at the neighbouring pub on the evening we were checking in. Overall, a lovely stay, thank you!
This luxury pod is superb in every way. It was perfect for one and would be excellent for a couple - similar to staying in a roomy boat or caravan. Despite being just off the main road, it was wonderfully quiet and dark. There are good places to eat in Mingarry and Acharacle. There is also a well-stocked shop in the latter. It provided the perfect base to explore Ardnamurchan - an hour to the lighthouse through spectacular scenery. Getting there is much easier, now the Corran Ferry has reopened for cars.
The hotel is quite remote and in a beautiful location. There is a small store directly opposite and some lovely country walks all around. The scenery is breathtaking. Breakfast has good choices and is tasty. The evening meal is extra but the chef is good. Other options are a fair distance away. The room was comfortable, and the shower was good. The staff were generally good and helpful. It is not overly expensive either.
Liz and Innes were great hosts, very friendly and kind. The location was excellent. They made us feel very welcomed and did not mind what time/when we went out or came back. Breakfast was fantastic, as they say, they will give you a great breakfast to set you up for the day. Room was big and very comfortable, would highly recommend staying there if you were visiting Acharacle/ Highlands.
It’s a beautiful old highland inn - wonderfully friendly staff. Great friendly bar, great food. We had a superb weekend walking up the local hills. We had originally attempted to stay at the nearby Mingarry Park but decided to not stay due to threatening behaviour by the owners. Staying at the Loch Shiel hotel was a much better decision. Thanks to the owner and team for a wonderful stay.
I stayed here with my partner, and my family a few weeks ago and we were absolutely amazed by this cottage. The views across the loch were breathtaking. The cottage was huge, bigger than we expected and had everything we needed. The owner was helpful and responsive. The cottage was a short walk from the small supermarket and hotel. Would stay here again. X
The location is ideal - right in the centre of the village of Acharacle, next to the store. The caravan was clean, decently-equipped and good value for money. Off-road parking.
The Cafe Tioram, a couple of minutes' walk along the road, is a great place for breakfast or lunch.
The location was ideal for our road trip around Scotland. The staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful we enjoyed the singing chef(a very happy chap). Great value and popular with locals and passing visitors to the area. Breakfast was included and really tasty.
What was there not to like? Warm, friendly welcoming hosts, fantastic comfy spacious spotless accomodation, beautiful location, scrumptious breakfast. I would be amazed if anyone could find a better place to stay in Acharacle, or anywhere for that matter.
Breakfast and dinner was well worth the cost and was delicious. The room was clean, comfortable and beautiful. The staff was friendly and helpful. The property was equipped with comforts, plenty of seating in public areas and a well stocked bar.
Lovely host, beautiful room with a great shower, lots of extra touches that made it very comfortable. Brilliant location with walks from the door. Delicious breakfast and a great small hotel in the village that does good food.
It’s a lovely small hotel. The owners and the staff were friendly and very helpful. The food was exceptional. We loved it in Mingarry Park and will be definitely going back.
Such a lovely location to explore the area. We spent time in Kilchoan area and Sunna beach area. Lovely and peaceful! Silver Way is nearby for more beautiful walking.
