The Ceilidh Place in Ullapool grew out of Broomview Cottage and was started in 1970 by the actor Robert Urquhart, who was born there in 1921. He started a small café in boatshed with aspirations that it became a place for eating, meeting, talking and singing. We provide a comfortable place for guests who are looking for a place to stay with their dog while exploring Ross-shire.

We have ‘Rooms to Let’ in The Ceilidh Place. They are simply furnished and comfortable and most have a bathroom within. There are no televisions, but each room has a classy radio and a small library. The books have been selected by a number of different readers, all of them well known to us as customers and some may be well known to you too. You can sleep rough at The Ceilidh Place. Basic bunk bedded rooms for one, two, three or four persons are in the Clubhouse across the car park. Eleven guest rooms can sleep a maximum of 32. It is available to be booked by walking/cycling clubs, big family get-togethers or those who wish to spend less on the bed and more on the wine! We hope we can accommodate you whatever the budget.

There is a very comfortable living room with a pantry off, where you can make tea and coffee at any time of the day or night. Here too, is the honesty bar where you can pour your own drinks (there is always someone downstairs to do it for you of course). This is the sociable heart of the hotel with a balcony for sitting out on warm sunny days and watching the world go by. Or alternatively, for snuggling into the sofa with a good book on a winters day. There is another wee library off, where you can find a quiet place to be – to write, read or contemplate. Wi-Fi is available here too.

Our hotel is a great place to stay while visiting the local area. At our hotel we offer a range of accommodation as well as being a café, bar, book shop and music venue. We are surrounded by the beautiful countryside that is just waiting for you and your dog to explore.
