Achnasheen
Achnasheen is a small village located in Ross-shire within the Highland council region of Scotland. The village is situated on the River Bran at the junction of two roads built by Thomas Telford. According to the 2011 Census, the village has a permanent population of around 10000. Despite the size of the village, Achnasheen is also the name of a postal district which covers many muchbigger communities. This includes Kinlochewe, Poolewe and Laide. Achnasheen being the name of a postal district seems to have originated from the time when the village railway station, which was constructed in 1870, was a vital stop on the Kyle of Lochalsh Line, serving a large region of Wester Ross. The railway continues to operate, but this mostly concerns the transportation of mail and freight. Most residents of the village, and also the village's guests, travel by road. Facilities in the village are restricted. However, there's a small number of facilities for residents and visitors. This includes the Ledgowan Lodge Hotel, which is a mile west of the village. This is the village's only hotel after the Achnasheen Hotel, which was situated by the railway station, burnt down in the early 1990s and has never undergone plans nor attempts to be rebuilt.
