great place outside of fort william
we are a family of five backpacking around the UK and wanted to go hiking in the scottish highlands and the fort william area is full of beautiful hikes at different distances and skill levels. fort william it’s self was all booked up so we had to look a bit further away, so we found this place. the apartment is right off the train line, and when i say right off, you practically run into the door when you get off the train which was great for us as we were tired from a long day of train hoping. the couple running the place were wonderful. very friendly and helpful and willing to be on call whenever for whatever. she even started our laundry when we couldn’t! the place is about two blocks from a great little grocery store and a bus line. the apartment it’s self was perfect for our family. three rooms with plenty of beds and a large living room area with very comfy lazy boy chairs and a great view of the water. very clean. the one challenge is if you are w/o a car, even though you are right next to the train, the train isn’t that active in this tiny town. fort william is only 5min by train, but 25-30min by bus, so you just have to be careful to look at schedules to make sure you get to where you need to be. also, this is a tiny town, so to find a good restaurant you need to be in fort william. that said, it was a home base for the most beautiful hiking we did all trip :)

Worst place I've ever stayed at! They refused to answer emails. You have to "lock" your family members in, if you had to run to the store. No internet.

We are totally devastated by this totally inaccurate review. All e-mails were answered - we have the paperwork to prove this. It is clear that this review was written by the client’s daughter who may not have been fully aware of the background booking history. An apology is due for this outrageous review. Way back in February one of the party booked an apartment online through Expedia which had already been booked online elsewhere. The client was offered a private bunkroom instead which she accepted – we have the e-mails to confirm this plus her actual booking form for the private bunkroom directly through us. We have no idea where the comment “”You have to lock your family members in to go to the store”” has come from – that is nuts. The client was made aware that the internet in that particular hostel room was weak so we provided a key so that the party had access to internet - as the mother in the group had posted all of her party's travel plans & documents back to the USA. We only tried to help!

The owner was extremely welcoming and gave us a tour of the apartment on arrival. Overall look is slightly dated but very homely and well-maintained, and we loved the very plush sofas in the living room. We had a large group and there weren’t enough power plugs - be sure to bring an adapter. The property is right beside the train station and we could see the Jacobite steam train at certain times of the day, right from our window! My friends loved the location as it was far enough from busy city centre yet convenient enough as a base to explore the surroundings as far as Glencoe.

Hello Thank you for this - we greatly appreciate your feedback. We take the point about the adapters - we had supplied some extra ones but they seem to have "disappeared". Good that you enjoyed our location and enjoy the rest of your trip.

It is just behind the station so we were treated to close up views of the Jacobite steam train in the morning and it is just at the end of the canal so easy to get out for a morning walk. Nearby CoOp helps with the self-catering.

Tolle Lage bei Fort William direkt an der Glenfinnan Eisenbahnstrecke. Man kann den Harry-Potter-Zug zweimal am Tag vorbeifahren sehen. Liebenswürdige Hauswirtin. Einfache Ferienwohnung.

Het appartement bevindt zich op een prachtige locatie aan het meer (met uitzicht over het meer). Qua omgeving geef ik het een goede 8 score. Het appartement zelf was minder. Het appartement van binnen is heel oud en versleten en toe aan vervanging. De slaapbank was oud en het matras van keihard (zonder vering). De afzuigkap hing half los. Ook de badkamer moet vervangen worden.
