ULLAPOOL The best place to discover wild Scotland 

Nice video, thanks! Ullapool is a great stop off. The Ceilidh place is an excellent hotel and serves amazing food. The petrol station can’t be missed, but the large Tesco is harder to find. There is an easy walk up the hill which gives a similar view to the drone footage. This town marks to start of mountain roads, so I’m always pleased to get there.

KABOOM

Thank you for the inspiration. I am leaving for Ullapool tomorrow with my family. Our first visit to the west coast! We are going to brave the weather!

What makes me a good Demoman?

Ullapool is a bit of a disaster. There's no 4G in the town. That might have changed, but very recently. The garage, or fuel station is way, way, too small. The Town has limited parking, which they now charge for, so don't give this place your business. The Tesco car park, is free, if you can get in there. The spaces are only sized for small cars. You do see motorhomes parked in the Tesco car park, but damage is likely. The store itself is expensive, and has limited stock. You can get LPG, but it's hard to find, and if you go to the small industrial estate to the North of the town, you'll enter and take a right hand bend, the LPG is almost straight away on your right. It can take quite some time for the yard to clear so you can actually get in. It took me 45 minutes due to loads vehicles on a transporter. There are many easier and cheaper places with a greater selection in Dingwall, Inverness, and Fort William. While I don't have a grudge against Ullapool, it doesn't even register as a place to park up, pay, and walk around. Apart from LPG, I don't bother. I don't even think, 'I'll just pop into Tesco for xyz. Be it Oban, Dingwall, Inverness, or Fort William, you should have enough supplies to get to Thurso, or Wick. Going to Ullapool to catch a ferry, that's a different ball game. Big long layby 6 miles South of Ullapool. Decent views, and cracking 4G signal. The new waterfront development in Ullapool will draw in more eyeballs, making the place even more unbearable. Massive mistake introducing car park charges.
