Caisteal Liath Guest House is set amongst magnificent scenery, with coastal sea-loch and mountain views, in the beautiful north-west of the Scottish Highlands. Set in the small, quiet and peaceful crofting community of Baddidarrach, (which comes from the Gaelic to mean 'a cluster of oaks'); and yet only a short twenty minute walk will take you down into the village of Lochinver, for all local shops, post office, bank, restaurant, pub, leisure centre and amenities.
Located in its own private grounds high above the road Caisteal Liath has panoramic views of the mountains of Quinaig, Canisp, Suilven (sugar loaf), Cul Mhor, Cul Beag and Stac Pollaidh.
Holidaymakers and travellers are able to enjoy the Guests Lounge where they can sit and relax, read, or just gaze out of the large picture windows, watching the fishing fleet return with their catch.
Similar views can be had from the bedrooms or either of the dining rooms where you can look out across Lochinver Bay towards the mountain ranges beyond, whilst enjoying an excellent continental or full breakfast with a wide choice of menu.
Tastefully furnished and decorated, bedrooms are ample in proportion and include: colour television, hairdryer, hospitality tray, radio and iron/press. All have views of the mountains of Quinaig or the sea-loch and mountains of Canisp and Suilven.

Directions
By Road:
From the South
From Inverness take the A835 to Ullapool and then carrying on north to Ledmore Junction. Turn left onto the A837 to Lochinver. On approach to the village down the steep hill, take the right turning to Baddidarrach, which crosses over a stone bridge & the River Inver. Baddidarrach is sign posted along this road with a left turn just after the cattle grid. This is now a single track road and after two right hand bends the Caisteal Liath Chalets and car parks are located on the right hand side of the road. A little further along this road, Caisteal Liath House and Guest House is the second house on the right with a large double garage at the bottom of the drive. This road has no street lighting and it is advisable to have a torch with you.
