Facilities in the village are limited. The Ledgowan Lodge Hotel is west of the village. There are a couple of small cafes in the community. There is also a regular train service, with the station in the centre of the community. At the train station car park there are public toilets and an electric car charging point. There used to be a school in Achnasheen, but the last pupil attended in 2004. By 2010, with no children in the area, the school was formally mothballed. Children in the former Achnasheen catchment area, until 2022, attended Kinlochewe school. But, when the school roll at Kinlochewe fell to one, children from both the Achnasheen and Kinlochewe area now attend Gairloch Primary. The secondary school catchment is also at
Gairloch High School. Within the village hall, the post office service has a weekly service to the community. ==Cultural references==
