26,000 hectares of breathtaking landscape, covering mountains, beaches, woodland, rivers and lochs. From the foot of the iconic Bealach-na-ba at Tornapress in the south, to just shy of Shieldaig in the north, the peninsula can feel more island than mainland due to it’s high and winding mountain roads, and tiny population of just 232 people.

A foodie heaven, come for the fresh local seafood, hand crafted chocolates, Applecross beer and the warm smell of baking bread. Enjoy a gin overlooking the water at the Inn, sample award-winning ice cream, specialist coffee and gourmet burgers, or treat yourself with a dish of vegetables, salads and berries grown by the team at the Walled Garden.

Applecross (A’Chomraich in Gaelic, meaning sanctuary) offers so much opportunity. It may not have theatres and shopping malls, leisure centres or soft play. It more than makes up for this in Its wild and often unforgiving landscape, its culture, history and wildlife. It is a paradise for the outdoors enthusiast, the wild swimmer, the road cyclist, the keen kayaker, the mountain biker, the munro bagger, and the wildlife spotter.

So get your kit on, get outdoors and experience Applecross.
