The lodge was excellent with everything we could have needed. The owner was very welcoming and showed us everything we needed to know. We would have no hesitation in recommending the lodge to family and friends.

Excellent location with views of Ben Nevis, and a river running past the lodge. Kept in an immaculate condition of cleanliness and the owner on hand if a problem arises or any local knowledge needed. We had a wonderful time and wouldn’t hesitate to go back sometime in the future.
