Location
Inchbae, a tourist destination in its own right, has unspoilt views of the surrounding mountains, the closest one being Ben Wyvis. Tourists and outdoor enthusiasts find this back drop very attractive. The North West Coast of Scotland attracts a large number of visitors to the area with its enchanting scenery and abundance of wildlife, including red deer, pine martens and eagles. Many visitors take advantage of the challenging local hill and forest walks in the region, others capitalise on the excellent river and sea fishing. The more sedate sightseer may visit the many places of historic and cultural interest. The ferry that takes tourists and Islanders to Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis departs from Ullapool. The property is located close to the North Coast 500 route which attracts many visitors to the area every year. Ullapool is 26 miles and Dingwall 20 miles; both have a strong sense of community, with schools, golf course and social and welfare facilities. The village of Garve which has a nursery, primary school, well used village hall, post office and train station is 5 miles away. Inverness, the Capital of the Highlands is a 40-minute drive away with a full range of services associated with a modern city.
