Ok - Rating 3/5

Central locationGood breakfast with creative itemsRooms have paper thin walls. Also when told that the bedheadboard was hitting the wall, the owner did not appear to be open to the information.Price high for this accommodation and time of year

Thank you for your review..We're sorry that your visit didn't live up to your expectations.We rely on guests to let us knowif there is anything that they aren't happy with.It is unfortunate that you left it until the end of your visit, as you were checking out, to inform us about the headboard.It was a simple 2 minute fix and could have easily been done while you were here if you had let us know.

Birthday celebration for my sons and myself - Rating 5/5

We were a group 4. It was our first trip to Ullapool and this area of the Highlands. We were greeted by Maureen and Michael upon our arrival. The accommodations offered by The Shelling GuestHouse were more than we expected. The rooms were very comfortable. The setting on the water is fabulous. Breakfast choices were numerous and prepared to order. Our compliments to the chef for outstanding fare. Michael and Maureen had many suggestions for things to do during our stay. Unfortunately we only had 2 nights at the Shelling. We could have stayed at least 2 more nights. Highly recommended for a very relaxing holiday.

Thank you Peter for your lovely review.It's always lovely to see a family group enjoying spending time together and especially using the sitting room in the evenings.We're hoping that you'll come back to visit with the rest of the family!

Thank you Angela.We are so glad you enjoyed your stay.So much of our breakfast choices are homemade (the butter, granola, muffins, sausages, kedgerees etc) that it is great to know that our guests are enjoying them and our efforts are worthwhile.

Comfortable, welcoming and peaceful - Rating 5/5

This was a very special stay- a warm welcome, our hosts were available and welcoming but not intrusive with lots of information about the locality. The room was clean and comfortable and the breakfasts were amazing and luxurious, with the most wonderful view. Wish we could have stayed that extra night!Thank you.

Maureen and Michael are fantastic hosts - so welcoming, helpful and accommodating (we arrived later than normal due to a medical emergency!).They did everything to make our stay an enjoyable one.As for the views, either from the sitting room or from the back garden, they were breath-taking!
