We had a lovely week at Gairlochy Lodge, which turned out to be the perfect choice for our family holiday. The location was exactly what we were looking for – peaceful and tucked away from Fort William, yet still a great base for exploring the area. From the lodge, you could stroll down to the loch, cycle the canal, swim and paddle in the loch and the children really enjoyed riding their bikes safely around the site.Inside, the lodge is a little dated in style, with lots of wood, but that actually adds to its charm. It was clean, tidy, and very well-equipped with everything we needed in the kitchen. The bathroom was perfectly adequate – the shower worked well with decent pressure, and we had no issues at all.A big thanks to Jackson, who was very friendly and helpful when we arrived, even showing us how to work the TV.The real highlight, though, has to be the balcony. The view across to Ben Nevis and the River Spean was absolutely stunning – the kind of view you never get tired of. It made the whole stay feel really special, and any minor imperfections in the lodge itself were completely outweighed by the setting.Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily recommend Gairlochy Lodge for anyone looking for a peaceful, scenic getaway near Fort William.

chalet dans camping. Emplacement retiré (mais voulu). Bonne base pour cette région des Highlands. Belle vue sur le Nevis.
