The Spotlight on The Millcroft Hotel

Seaside Comfort in the Scottish Highlands

Modern comfort meets coastal charm at The Millcroft Hotel, a laid-back 3-star retreat located in the scenic village of Gairloch. Overlooking the sea and just a short drive from local music spots and community events, it's the perfect base for concert-goers looking to blend Highland tranquility with live music energy. With free WiFi, free parking, and warm hospitality, you’ll feel right at home.

Why Concert-goers love it

After a night of live music in nearby towns like Ullapool or local Gairloch venues, The Millcroft offers a quiet, scenic place to unwind. Most rooms come with sea views—ideal for a relaxed morning after a late night. Check-in starts at 16:00 and while check-out is at 10:30, the peaceful setting makes every moment feel unhurried. Plus, with free parking and local taxi services, getting around is easy—even after hours.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends who want a cozy base near the coast
Solo travelers checking off a bucket-list Highland gig
Couples making a weekend escape of it
Fans seeking quiet recovery after a night of music
Budget-conscious music lovers looking for value and views

Food and Drink Options

The on-site restaurant serves up local Highland cuisine, and during winter months, a reduced but tasty bar menu keeps things simple. Wake up to a hearty full Scottish or continental breakfast—perfect for recovering from a long night. While there's no 24/7 room service, the friendly staff are always happy to help. Local eateries are within a short drive for variety.

Nightlife Options

While The Millcroft itself is more about relaxing than raving, the on-site bar is a cozy spot for a nightcap. For more excitement, nearby towns like Ullapool (just 23 miles away) sometimes host live music events, and local pubs offer an authentic Highland night out.

What People Say

Guests love the sea views, peaceful setting, and friendly staff. Many mention the clean, comfortable rooms and the quality of the breakfast. It’s especially praised for being a great place to recharge after exploring or attending events in the region.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the hotel is a bit remote, so having a car is useful. Also, in the winter months, the dining options are more limited—but still delicious. And while the check-out time is standard, a later option would be welcome for post-concert sleep-ins.

The Bottom Line

For music lovers seeking a quiet, scenic, and affordable stay near Highland venues, The Millcroft Hotel is a perfect post-show retreat.

Friendly staff, great location.

A New Experience

Liked: Our family 'room' was an actual apartment with two upstairs bedrooms and downstairs sitting room with TV. The hotel is in an elevated position at the head of Strath and the views over the harbour are lovely. The hotel is very clean, spacious and has all the amenities as described. We were given a warm welcome & all the information we needed on arrival.Dinner was excellent & good value for money with professional but friendly service. Breakfast was very good with with hot & cold choices. We would stay again
Disliked: There wasn't anything not to like. Our stay was made pleasant & comfortable by the staff

Pleasant

Liked: Rooms comfortable enough and staff very nice.
Disliked: Hotel is very tired, food not really up to scratch - breakfast was a very long wait and what arrived wasn't fresh. If after cheap and cheerful, this is a good place to stay.

All round nice hotel

Liked: We had the family apartment, although we were just a couple. Great views of Gairloch to Skye. We had dinner bnb two nights and enjoyed our stay. The staff were exceptionally nice and helpful, led by Duncan who was a great host.
Disliked: Nothing, for a 3 star hotel is was really good. I'd suggest the table staff all write down orders like Duncan did , rather than try and remember it as my hot breakfast choice wasn't 100% correct each time, but a minor niggle.
