Just returned from our second visit to Riverside. As before it was spotlessly clean, good facilities, brilliant hot shower and filling breakfasts to set you up for the day. We were in a twin room which had very comfy beds and we slept soundly. Friendly owner with great knowledge of the surrounding area. Good off road parking for our motorbikes... More

Continuing our touring holiday in Scotland this was another B&B chosen based on TripAdvisor reviews and once again we were not disappointed in any way. On arrival we were offered a choice of rooms and a wealth of information about Ullapool and the surrounding area about which we knew very little. The twin room we chose was on the ground... More

I recently stayed at The Riverside before commencing a cycle tour to Cape Wrath. Immaculate rooms, excellent breakfast and very friendly, helpful owner, I cannot speak highly enough of this guest house.

The welcome at this B&B is very nice. The people are very friendly. As another reviewer said, it is actually more like a small hotel than a B&B. It is a 5 minute walk into the village. It is fine and very clean. It does not have lots of character or charm but we found it fine for a night.

I was a female vacationer alone in Ullapool for the first time for a period of 2 weeks at the Riverside. I had a single room that was consistently clean, quiet, with modern facilities. The breakfasts were more than plentiful, staff always accommodating, and the prop. Charlie always available to make positive suggestions to enhance my stay. The Riverside felt... More

This is an OK B&B, more like a small hotel - personally I prefered the smaller BB's we had stayed in during our cyling trip round scotland - saying that it was clean and offered everything you need for one nights stay - if a little tired. Perhaps it didnt help that the person in the next room was possibly... More
