About this property

Kick off your shoes in the handy porch area and head straight into the heart of the apartment, an open-plan living space with large patio doors framing spectacular views; the perfect backdrop for enjoying breakfast with your loved ones before the day's adventures. Prepare picnics and delicious home-cooked meals in the sleek kitchen area, complete with an electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and an all-important coffee maker to energise your mornings. Snuggle up on the sofa with a good book or enjoy a movie night on the TV, before catching your rest in one of two bedrooms. The neighbouring twin room is perfect for two younger guests, whilst the double offers extra privacy with an en-suite shower room. Wash the day away in the contemporary family bathroom with a bath for longer soaks or a shower over for quick rinses. Make the most of the breath-taking views by savouring your morning coffee on the outdoor patio, watching the sunrise over Lochy Loch, or lay down a blanket on the lawn area for the perfect family picnic. Take a break from cooking and head up the road to The Lochside Brasserie for delightful meals and a well-earned drink at the outdoor seating area overlooking the Loch. For excellent amenities and attractions, Spean Bridge is a short journey away and an ideal base for exploring the highlands, with a convenience store to stock up on self-catering essentials, as well as the famous Commando Memorial and panoramic viewpoint. Adventurous guests will relish a variety of outdoor activities, from hillwalking and climbing to watersports and wildlife watching, whilst The Great Glen Way and West Highland Way are two long distance walking trails passing through Spean Bridge. Just south of the village lies Leanachan Forest, scattered with mountain biking trails and dramatic views towards Ben Nevis and Aonach More. Head further south west to Fort William, known as the outdoor capital of the UK; breathe in the fresh mountain air, marvel at the ruins of the 13th-century Old Inverlochy Castle or test your swing at Fort William Golf Club. Fuel up in one of the many eateries before setting off to climb Ben Nevis, Britain's highest mountain, or take a gentle stroll along the loch to discover some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Journey north from Lochy Lookout to Fort Augustus at the southern tip of Loch Ness, with fantastic mountain vistas, breath-taking walks including the Great Glen Way, whilst Caledonian Canal Centre & Lock Chambers tells the history of the canal. Take a cruise up Loch Ness to take in the fabulous views where you can spot the romantic ruins of Urquhart Castle looming over the Loch. Choose Lochy Lookout for a memorable holiday in the Scottish Highlands.
