Another vote for The Sheiling - we stayed there last year. They have a drying room for your bike gear in the unlikely event it rains
We are overnighting in Ullapool on the 17th May. We are booked into the Caledonian Hotel, no idea what it is like, we just stuck a pin in! If it is really awful maybe someone will tell me and we might be able to re book elsewhere.
It's just one night and I expect we might eat elsewhere so as long as the cockroach count isn't too high I think we will be fine.

Caledonian gets mixed reviews. One of the older established hotels in the village now catering for the "coach firm" tours. Not top notch but probably OK for a night or two.
Arch inn is good, and it's nice to sit by the edge of the loch in the late afternoon/evening - but they can charge like a wounded buffalo. The Royal is good accommodation, recently refurbished - and is a lot cheaper.
Ladysmith guest house gets good reviews.
You have to try the fish and chips at Seaforth on they quay - the best I have ever had, consistently.

Stayed at the Ladysmith - highly recommended. Not many places offer smoked salmon with scrambled eggs for breckie.
Not recommending the Seaforth any more, for their fish and chips. It has changed ownership (Punch taverns??) and they are now gouging the tourists. Fish and chips small now, and no mushy peas.

Good comment about the Seaforth, robbery with out violence, use the fish & chip shop around the corner next to the butchers' for best F&C in Ullapool, during the day go to the Seafood Shack next to the mountain shop, its really superb.

a good recommendation, thanks.
Caleigh Place for food, or Arch Inn too. Gone off the Arch Inn for accommodation - they tend to be a bit on the expensive side. Royal Hotel can sometimes do some good deals, with freshly-overhauled rooms. Use as B&B only, as restaurant and bar are not overly-inviting.
