The Dipping Lugger

The Dipping Lugger Standing majestically on the shore of Loch Broom, facing the mountains, The Dipping Lugger offers a unique Highland experience.

Our three luxurious, comfortable and unique rooms all acknowledge the part the building has played in the evolution of the village of Ullapool and our dining room showcases some of the finest ingredients found all around us, complemented perfectly by our carefully curated drinks list.

"A pretty, whitewashed former manse overlooking harbour and hills in the historic west coast fishing village of Ullapool – now stylishly, sympathetically converted to an intimate first-class restaurant with three bijou bedrooms. Come for the superb cooking and stunning scenery; stay for snug, sophisticated comfort."
