Cot and highchair. . Large garden with lawns, garden furniture and BBQ. Children’s play area including swings and a selection of outdoor games. Hot tub (private), £100pw payable direct to the owner on arrival. Parking for 4 cars. Please note: The garden leads to a burn.. Beech House is situated in one of the most idyllic and unique locations in the Scottish Highlands, with wide and awe-inspiring views across the Great Glen to the North face of Ben Nevis, which dominates the landscape and can be admired whilst luxuriating in the hot tub! Built as the new croft house for Seangan in 1986 and subsequently extended, this exceptionally large, bright and spacious house is situated on a working croft on the banks of the Caledonian Canal. The farm has been in the current family for well over a hundred years and the owners welcome visitors to experience the peace and tranquillity of the Highland croft lifestyle in one of the most renowned and unspoilt area of the British Isles. The hot tub and barbecue area are covered so can be enjoyed in all weathers, and to the front of the house is a large covered decking area with spectacular views to Ben Nevis.
Situated just 5 miles from Fort William, the opportunities for sport and outdoor recreation are second to none.  Climbing, hill-walking, canoeing, sailing, golf, fishing, skiing and cycling are all available within close proximity and the Great Glen Way stretching from Fort William to Inverness is close by. Whether you would like to tackle one of the many Munros in the area (mountains about 3,000 feet), or prefer to wander through the foothills of Glen Nevis, (where the film Braveheart was made), with its pretty riverside walks, or even take the gondola ride up the ski slopes to savour the spectacular views from the top, there is something for all abilities.
The world mountain biking championships are held here annually, and the trails offer a variety of routes for all levels. Take a trip to Mallaig on the ’road to the isles’ just 2 miles from the property, or travel via the famous steam train of Harry Potter fame, which runs along this route. From there, it is just a short ferry ride away to the Isle of Skye, and the smaller isles of Muck, Eigg and Rhum. A day out on the Arnamurchan Peninsula, via the Corran car ferry (5 minute boat ride) is a must. With its beautiful coastline, its pretty hamlets and villages untouched by time, and its lighthouse situated on the most westerley point in Britain, this will prove to be a unique and memorable experience. The rugged beauty of nearby Glencoe, the seclusion of Loch Arkaig (location of the film Rob Roy), and the quiet tranquillity of the Caledonian Canal all contribute to the incomparable qualities of this area and combine to make this lovely house an ideal base for exploring the heart of the Western Highlands. Beech House is particularly suited to a two family or extended family holiday as it can accommodate larger groups. Shop, pub and restaurant 2 miles.
Beech House can be booked together with Birch Lodge (28880) and Hawthorn Lodge (CC511328) to accommodate up to 18 guests.
Free WiFi

A super visit, in a great location, with very friendly hosts.
A super visit, in a great location, with very friendly hosts. The advertising perhaps doesn't make it clear that this is one half of a building, but that really did not affect us. Some of furnishings are relatively basic, and some of the mattresses could have been more comfortable, but it was otherwise ideal for an extended family break with kids; having an en suite for each bedroom was brilliant, the covered hot tub area was put to very good use and was a big hit (although a couple of nights our midgie head nets helped!), and sitting rooms were very comfortable (and having the 2nd smaller one that the kids took over as their den was perfect), wifi was decent and the location superb.

A large property with plenty of space.
A large property with plenty of space. It has a good sized kitchen and lounge. The en-suite facilities in each room is very handy and there are excellent views over the Nevis range from the lounge window. The hot-tub is very handy after a long day out walking.

Perfect property for our group: enough rooms and bathrooms, several communal areas to spill over into, large enough kitchen equipment to cope with the group size, inspiring view out of the window!
