Where would you like to wake up?

Every one of these is somewhere we would book ourselves: apartments on the hill above Ullapool looking along Loch Broom, and a house built where a fisherman's net store stood on Loch Beag at Ardheslaig. There's also a white house among the Scots pines on Loch Shieldaig, facing the Torridon mountains. Choose one to see it, the nights it is free and how to book.

Places to Stay on the Shore of a Loch

Waking up to a loch outside the window, with the water still and the hills behind it, is one of those things that makes a stay in Scotland feel different. These are our favourite places to stay on the shore.

Inside The Net Store.

The Net Store stands on the shore of Loch Beag at Ardheslaig on the Applecross peninsula, built where a fisherman's net store used to be. A tall gable of glass looks across the Minch towards the Hebrides and over the quiet fishing village. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living room has a wood-burning stove and Neff appliances. There's a ground-floor bedroom and bathroom with a steel bath and walk-in shower, an en-suite bedroom upstairs and a big mezzanine with a desk and a leather sofa. It sleeps four.

The Torridon has been given its first Michelin Key.

The Michelin Guide added the Wester Ross hotel to its 2026 list of Key hotels on 18 September, the same year its restaurant, 1887, won a Michelin star. It sits in 58 acres beside Upper Loch Torridon, with a kitchen garden, farm and whisky bar.
