Rua Reidh has offered guided walking in the Highlands for over 10 years and we have become walking experts in this area with guides not only taking care of your safety and well-being but also having local knowledge often not found in the guide books! |

Rua Reidh Lighthouse is a unique and exciting place to 'get away from it all'. Leave the artifical trappings, worries and pace of everyday life behind and experience the raw elements, majestic landscape and wild seascape of the North West Highlands of Scotland.
With comfortable accommodation in the old keeper's house, a friendly, relaxed atmosphere and excellent home cooking, it provides the perfect base from which to explore one of the last wilderness areas of Europe. If you've ever dreamed of living in a lighthouse, why not just come and stay one of our comfy rooms with either full board or just B&B?
