The host was very kind and met us when we got there. Very communicative and available. The carriage house was very clean , stocked and a nice comfortable bed. Carriage house was remote enough and private with a wonderful view of the loch and the steam train without being too far away from downtown Fort William. Excellent stay!

The lodging was just great. Nice restroom, comfortable bed, ultra convenient kitchen features.Some of the communication with West Hollidays was less than efficient. For one they said they would provide the door lock code 24 hours ahead then changed to one our before arrival time. Do you really want to drive three hours to a place without knowing how to get in? I guess if that was stated up front it would be fine. There were other communications with West Hollidays I thought could have been handled better but none of this is a direct reflection on the owners or the place itself. We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend a visit!

Mega netter Aufenthalt!

Die Hosts waren super freundlich und offen. Sowohl Check-In als auch Check-Out haben super geklappt. Die Küche war sehr gut ausgestattet mit Herd, Mikrowelle und einem Air-Fryer. In der Unterkunft hat man außerdem einen super Blick auf die Bahngleise, auf denen der berühmte Jacobite Steam Train entlangfährt für alle Interessierten.
