Ardnamurchan Lighthouse

This was my 4th Lighthouse break and the furthest, what you have to understand is the final 30 miles of single track road to get there. The cottage is clean and adequately furnished, the WiFi works if you need it, but no mobile signal which is great. The local people, shops and facilities are great, the shop at Salen I found particularly good. The cottage is within the grounds of a visitors attraction so you will find people wondering about “and looking in the windows”, just pull down the blind !! The scenery on your way “too and from”  the lighthouse is superb and I stopped on several occasions to admire the view. Enjoy

Stunning area to visit. If you want away from it all this is the place but what you have to understand is that its an old building and was abandoned for a few years before being put into use again.

Downside is the security of  the building having read some of the comments left by previous visitors the windows in the bathroom and the kitchen cant be locked unless you jam something into the sides. I managed to open the windows from outside with no effort .a bit worrying considering we had been out all day leaving some valuables lying around and these windows had been reported over 2 years ago. Place was clean everything you need for cooking etc but on arrival there was no milk etc. Might seem petty but when you've driven for 5 hours and there's no shops or even a hint that you might need to buy some on way. Had a problem with power going off but it seems you cant have the booster for hot water and anything else on at the same time took 2 hours to get a reply from anyone and it turned out he couldn't help anyway.

Roads are twisty but I expected that but overall I would go back some lovely scenery and the beaches nearby were stunning. was dry but windy but we managed to see a clear sky and all that goes with that.

Great location.  Lighthouse tours And cafe on site - apart from that only great beaches and walks for miles.  Sanna spice a must and remember to have plenty of cash - no ATM close.  

I was lucky enough to stay at the lighthouse in Ardnamurchan for five days. It was a slice of heaven in a desolate and beautiful landscape. The cottage was lovely and had everything you would need to make your stay comfortable. The scenery is out of this world and all the people we met were so kind and helpful. Special shoutout to Davie who came and fixed the toilet within the hour. Massive thank you such a prompt and speedy response. I would definitely recommend staying here if what you want is peace, views, wildlife and serenity. It has all of those in droves. 

Been here several times and the long drive out to the most Westerly point on mainland UK is worth it for the views and with patience the possible sighting of a whale breaking the water. Great coffee shop too.
