Corpach marks the end of the longest set of locks in the UK, Neptune's Staircase, which are part of the massive Caledonian Canal before they empty into the sea. Canoeing, kayaking, sailing, mountaineering, and winter climbing are just few of the activities available at the Snowgoose Mountain Centre. Treasures of the Earth is Europe's best private collection of crystals, jewels, and fossils, and it is the perfect place to go if you want to take it easy. Fort William, a major Highland settlement, is close by; it is a popular destination for shopping, seafood lovers, and hikers because of its location at the base of Ben Nevis, the highest peak in the United Kingdom. Whether you hike up Aonach Beag, Ben Nevis's neighbour, or ride the gondola to the top of Aonach Mor, you'll be treated to breath-taking panoramas and a delicious lunch. While the resort is known for its winter activities, Nevis Range also offers world-class mountain riding in the summer. The world-famous 6-day Trials Bike event is held in Fort William every year in early May. Ideal for exploring this stunning region of Scotland.

The location is perfect and very picturesque. The property is lovely, very comfortable and has everything you need. We would definitely recommend staying here.
Helen
Near enough to the viaduct with the Harry Potter steam train and the excitement from the crowd waiting but far away enough to be in a peaceful lochside location. The scenery was breathtaking. The cottage had been beautifully renovated. It was well equipped. Would suggest that a microwave would be a welcome addition to the kitchen. The owners were extremely helpful and welcoming as was Joe who lived nearby. We would recommend staying here and would love to return ourselves one day
Dave
Great, homely property. Loved it. Only wrinkle was the shower couldnât be set to a lower temperature- but a really minor biggie. Otherwise fantastic
