Pretty waterfall and only a small, fairly flat walk from the car park to the decked viewing platform. It is worth taking the short walk up the hill to the top of the falls. There you can be see and be seen from the lower platform, good photo opportunity if you are in a group. Either continue up hill and take the loop path back to the car or for a shorter route go back the way you came.

Definitely worth a stop off if you are passing near by. From the free car park, it is only a very short walk to the falls, which can be seen from a viewing platform. It's worth doing the longer loop which takes you further up the falls and to a viewpoint overlooking Loch Maree. It's only 1/3 mile and takes about 10 mins.

Victoria Falls was absolutely stunning – the views of the waterfall are incredible and it’s such a peaceful, beautiful spot to take in. Out of all the places we visited on the NC500, this might have been our favourite. Definitely worth stopping for if you’re doing the route!

Nice short hike to falls. Free parking at the bottom. Allow about 20 minutes, although the platform from the parking is only about three minutes. It’s worth it to go up and around the loop to see views of Loch Marie.

Great waterfall just off the main road down Loch Maree, free parking and only a short walk to the viewing platform at the bottom of the falls easy for people of all abilities and ages. A path leads from the viewing platform to the top of the falls for a different view. Waterfall nice from the bottom with its double drop cascade. A great waterfall to see on the NC500.

We came across this whillst travelling along the NC500 , Wow, absoloutley stunning, you can see part of Loch Maree from there also. Plenty of space for parking , wasnt overly crowded. Highley recommend a stop off on your journey .

Beautiful waterfall looked incredible after rainfall. Easily accessible from car park to viewing point. Would recommend a visit.

We came to the gallery on friday at 4 pm, but it was closed

Amazing local artwork. Really friendly owners.

Brilliant - stunning water colours and ceramics. Well worth a visit.

Not a huge selection, but worth a visit after coming out of the pub.

A delightfully well kept and repurposed area providing a peaceful space to enjoy nature

Nice little town Garden with picknick tables with a nice view. Great spot to eat your lunch. There are public toilets a bit further down the road.

Nice wee community garden

Lovely peaceful place. Stopped here during a coach trip. Shame everything was shut.

Great use of a small stretch of land.

We've had the great pleasure of a half day canyoning with Charlie from Climb Ride Explore. From meeting Charlie to the last minute we've loved it all. The route chosen was spot on for a novice family, nothing too strenuous but enough exhilaration for the adventurous out there. We felt safe throughout. I would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone, and I think this is the best value for money experience I've ever been on.

What an amazing experience we had coasteering for 1/2 day with Charlie and Emily. We were a family of five with three young boys who were variously scared of things to begin with (jellyfish, the cold, heights) and the team were so good with them that by the end of it they were leaping off the rocks, playing in wave pools and venturing in caves. I can’t recommend them highly enough if you’re up for a family adventure!! We’ll be back to try canyoning next time 🤙

Our family hired Charlie for two days to adventure around the highlands. We had the BEST time! We chose canyoning one day and coasteering the next. Charlie was super communicative ahead of time, flexible with all of our needs and took us off the beaten path to places we would never have even come close to knowing about. Also...the adventure! None of us had ever tried either activity, and Charlie was super prepared with all the gear and instructions we needed. We give Charlie the highest recommendation -- you will NOT be disappointed with any experience you book with him.

Superb. We took our kids (10 and 13) canyoning and we all had a fantastic time. Charlie’s knowledge, expertise and experience were very evident and we felt in extremely safe hands at all times. It was brilliant fun, jumping into pools and abseiling down the canyon among stunning scenery near Loch Maree & Slioch. We had been thinking of doing a hill walking day beforehand and Charlie gave us loads of excellent advice and guidance on options before we opted for canyoning. We’d love to do a hill day with Charlie another time as he clearly knows this magnificent area inside out. Don’t hesitate to book with Climb Ride Explore, you won’t be disappointed.

We had an amazing experience Coasteering with Climb Ride Explore! We have 10 and 13 year old girls and we all went out with Charlie for a half day, we had a blast climbing and traversing along rocks before doing a few jumps into the sea. Charlie was very patient when the girls were apprehensive about jumping but also encouraged them to go for it. Great fun, would definitely recommend and would love to do it again!

Had an absolutely brilliant half day canyoning with Charlie. It was great fun and we felt very safe the whole time. When we needed to swap days Charlie was very accommodating too which was much appreciated, even though we swapped to a day when we were the only booking! Would definitely recommend to others and book again for the extended experience if we come back to the area!

We had an amazing experience with Charlie. We (me and 2 of my children age 22, 21 and my daughters boyfriend age 22) went on the extreme coastering, which we can highly recommend. It was a fantastic nature experience combined with some adrenaline happenings. This combined with the fact that we felt safe with Charlie who is very experienced and also very good to talk to. Best regards Lars

Small waterfall and nice woodland circular walk

Nice easy walk to a pleasant waterfall, Can be made to be circular and would have ventured had been on our own. Bridge over the water near the waterfall closed. Very accessible from the car park.

Beautiful walk up the side of the wee burn, well sign posted for the waterfall, until you actually get to the waterfall where, using stepping stones to cross the ford go straight across the road and along a slight path to the left. Keep going and you’ll get a good view of the main falls. We discovered this after taking the steep path to the left that takes you to the top of the waterfall and out into the glen. (Very Steep) my husband got a cuckoo and a Sea Eagle 🦅 at the top. I suggest if they’re going to put sign posts in all the way up to the waterfall they could at least clear a wee space where you’re able to view it.

This is a glen we have enjoyed many times with our dogs. It was disappointing this month therefore to be greeted with a virtual instruction from the estate of Gairloch should be on leads. Pretty unwelcoming and we are unlikely to return.

Easy to park and great walk to the waterfall.

(Translated by Google) This is a review of the excursion options from this parking lot: just north of the parking lot you can take a short walk through a fascinating forest - or rather jungle - that resembles an arboretum walk. Highly recommended in any weather (see first pictures). A short hike leads through the Flowerdale Glen (valley), mostly along the river to the waterfall (Flowerdale Waterfall) and above - finally with a view of the sea. Exciting vegetation, beautiful views, easy hike. (Original) Dies ist eine Rezession über die Ausflugsmöglichkeiten ab diesem Parkplatz: gleich nördlich vom Parkplatz lässt sich ein kurzer Spaziergang durch einen faszinierenden Wald - oder eher Urwald - machen, der einem arboretum walk ähnelt. Sehr zu empfehlen bei jedem Wetter (siehe erste Bilder). Ein kurze Wanderung führt durch das Flowerdale Glen (Tal) meist entlang dem Fluss bis zum Wasserfall (Flowerdale Waterfall) und darüber - zuletzt mit Aussicht bis zum Meer. Spannende Vegetation, schöne Aussichten, leichte Wanderung.

Good family trip

Glenview was simply amazing. So peaceful and tranquil and the view was stunning. Excellent place to stay on so many levels, if you have dogs the space is unforgettable. Can’t wait to book again.

We have just had a wonderful week at Glenview cottage. A fabulous cottage in a beautiful location, perfect to get away from it all but still accessible for local amenities and day trips. The cottage itself is very comfortable and has everything you could need. Beach access is a little steep and sticky but an great bonus to be able to kayak straight out of the back garden! Would highly recommend this property and Wester Ross retreats to anyone looking to get away from it all!

Great booking experience, good website with realistic photos and accurate representation. I have stayed at least half a dozen of their properties in the past. Most of them have been excellent for a family holiday, clean, well appointed and of a high quality.

Our family have used Wester Ross Retreats to book holiday accommodation several times during the last decade and longer, including last year and this year. This is a longstanding local business which is very reliable and trustworthy. Communication with Wendy, the agency manager is good, friendly and prompt. Thank you Wendy. Update 2024 Booked again with Wester Ross Retreats and the experience is still good. I thoroughly recommend this agency. Entirely reliable and safe! Thank you Wendy! from Rina

Lovely setting. Well equipped and comfortable. Lovely strong shower in main bathroom.

We had a fabulous time in Shore House Two, Badachro. A lovely cottage in an absolutely stunning location. The garden runs right up to the shoreline and the views across the bay are spectacular. Having the Badachro Inn next door meant we enjoyed fantastic local food and a drink or two! Booking was really smooth and Wendy very helpful. Didn’t want to leave!

I've been booking cottages at Poolewe through Wester Ross Retreats every Easter for over 20+ years. Wendy has always been very helpful and customer focused. The cottages have always been of an excellent standard.

Nice little 9 hole golf club, est in 1989, where visitors are welcome. Beautifully located with view on broad beach. We found the course layout somewhat complicated, not evident where the next tee and green was.

A must visit 9 hole course, stunning location, meticulously maintained and one of the greatest golf holes anywhere in the world! if you’re a golfer do not drive past this course without giving it a try !!

Amazing little spot with great sea views.Good coffee and cake did not try the food on this occasion but looked lovely! Friendly staff as well always a bonus!

Very friendly and helpful staff. Was possible to loan a set of clubs for the whole family. Has a great meal at the clubhouse, will be back for a round again in February

Cracking Wee course. Built in a tight triangle of land with challenging par threes and tight fairways. Well worth a visit and the green fees. I feel I was mugged by the 8th. There is a steep grass "cliff" about two clubs into the par 5. If you don't know it's there you'll lose a ball.

An immaculately kept course with some amazing holes, with some elevated tees allowing dramatic views of the beach. Nice club house and staff to top off a mornings round.

Just popped in for coffee and sausage rolls beautiful

Beautiful sandy beach with plenty of sand on the shore at high tide and shallow water which gently slopes to deeper water. Very clear, no seaweed. Watch out for jelly fish in mid-July, but you can avoid them by swimming at the end of the beach farthest away from the Gairloch Hotel.

Kept clean and beautiful by the local volunteers. Wonderful beach to stretch dogs, kids and even adults. Drop by if you are passing by. Would highly recommend.

What can I say. It was June, 29°C and the beach was almost deserted. Nice water, great scenery.

Very pretty beach, spotlessly clean. Golden sands and dunes. If you want pebbles and shells don't bother it's just sand. There's a decking walkway giving access for wheelchair users and a pay to use public toilet. The scenery is spectacular. There's a short coastal walk to Charlestown , about 1 mile for a general store, cafe and pub , plenty of parking for the beach and it's free.

One of my favourite beaches. The sea is so crystal clear which makes it a great swimming spot. Often walked along the sand and never seen a soul. Great views too.

Well worth a stop. This beach is very picturesque with different views in every direction.

Great facilities for camper vans plus shower and loos. Lovely beach. Gairloch has put a lot of thought into providing these facilities. Thank you

Quite definitely the worst meal I've had anywhere in the last 40 years. Most of the haddock was inedible, saturated with tiny bones. The saucing and seasoning awful and over salted. It was a whole tiny haddock that was only fit for quenells. It should never have been served as a main plate. The accompanying chips and peas were just...... Chips and peas! On complaining they knocked off the service charge and £3 off the bill, totally inadequate. On reflection I should have refused to pay anything and let them sue me, which by the way is lawful so long as you leave your name and address. However we're on holiday and I just couldn't be bothered. Let's hope for better luck tomorrow. NOW! Let's see if they have the courage not to delete this post.

Went for food during a recent holiday, was OK but nothing special. Service wasn't amazing, even with a table pre-booked, we still had to flag someone down to get seated. Ordering and serving of food took longer than expected, 2 courses was over an hour and a half. Food itself was OK, but a bit bland. However it was all well cooked and hot, so definitely not the worst. Relatively expensive, compared to other nearby pubs/restaurants. Overall it was OK, but probably wouldn't visit again.

My wife and I had a meal at The Old Inn last evening. The food was excellent and the staff could not has been more accommodating. We brought our dog and he sat next to our table in the bar. Both members of staff who were on duty came to ask if he needed a bowl of water. We would certainly visit again.

Just stopped for food and a couple of pints. Service was slow and waited a long time for drinks and other customers also frustrated. My meal was fantastic, partners food underwhelming. Beers good quality and good selection Very nice atmosphere inside pub.

Amazingly friendly pub. We stopped in with two large dogs, a four year old and two adults after a busy day on the beach. The staff were super and the food and drinks were excellent. It's a lovely location and we would highly recommend a visit!

We stayed next door and came in for dinner and drinks twice. Really excellent food - we had the haggis, malfatti and chicken makhani - and good value. Great wine and beers, and a wonderful team who were so accommodating with everything. Definitely recommend

This is for the restaurant: The reviews here was mixed so me and my travel companions went here because a local recommended it. And let me tell you, ot was great! The service was excellent, the food was delicious (we all had fish and seafood) and the prices was reasonable. They also had some fun and different whiskeys. All in all, really great!

So glad we stopped off here, such a lovely cafe. Top quality coffee, wonderful service and chill atmosphere. Ended up having a second coffee, yummy carrot cake and then a freshly squeezed orange juice. Shame we don’t live closer!

Just what we needed. A small party of four, easily seated and well cared for. Coffee and cake for each of us.

We went for lunch (tasty panini, soup, hot chocolate and delicious scones and cakes) then returned for sharing boards and pizza in the evening. Friendly staff and excellent food. It's a good idea to book for the evening. Definitely recommended.

What a wonderful place! The warmest of welcomes (including dogs 🐶), delicious apple pie (Brava, Elizabeth!), coffee to die for and a beautiful environment. An absolute gem!!

What a wonderful place! Tasty food, delicious cakes and the friendliest staff, the kind that feels like a hug, will be coming back for more. Thank you, lovely lot!

What a fantastic place. They had a sign out to say they were short staffed and apologising for the inconvenience. When places are shutting left right and centre it’s fantastic to see a wee place putting in every effort to provide a great service. The girl out front let us know it would be a wee wait but that’s no issue when the view is so beautiful. In the end we hardly waited any time even though they were queued out the door and our food was delicious 😍 . A wonderful wee place with hardworking staff, a total gem

Amazing little coffee shop that has friendly & helpful staff. Great coffee and some very tasty cakes.. We didn't try the rest of the menu but if you're paying I would definitely recommend a visit.. Great views over the harbour as well..The wee gift shop next door has some really good momentos to remember your visit...
