There are good air and rail links to Inverness and a regular public transport service is available to Lochinver. For those travelling by car, the drive from Inverness to Inverkirkaig takes around 2 hours depending on traffic. Take the A9 to Tore, then the A835 to Ullapool. Head North on the A835 to Ledmore Junction, then take the A837 to Lochinver, which is known locally as 'The wee mad road'. Take the main road through Lochinver towards the harbour / fishing boat jetties and take the turning on the left (at the Bank) signposted to Inverkirkaig (in the Gaelic: Inbhir Chircaig). Carry on this road past Badnaban and Strathan until you come to Inverkirkaig. As you drop down the hill and approach the bay, the drive to the chalet is on the right and is signposted to 'Valhalla Chalets'. 'Unst' is the first chalet on the right-hand side of the drive.
