  • "One of my party has mobility issues so we immediately became aware of the rugs in the sitting room on the (badly) painted floor which was very slippy."

    Similarly in the bathrooms, the rugs on laminate flooring are hazardous. The patio and decking areas have been neglected and are mossy and slippy. The seating in the sitting room was uncomfortable and badly laid out. The kettle had limescale and was really heavy. Some complained that the beds were uncomfortable, the toilet paper provided was extremely thin and cheap, the dishbrush needs renewed and a pedal operated bin would be a great improvement in the kitchen. There are several O.S. maps provided, but the local Glencoe on is missing. The sign outside the property had fallen off, I tried to repair it but it fell off again. Overall, the property is clean and tidy, it's in a fantastic location and we had an amazing time, but hopefully these issues can be easily addressed for future occupants

    Thank you for your thoughful and constructive feedback about the property and for your kindness in trying to fix the sign. I shall ensure that the issues mentioned are addressed duly. I am pleased that you enjoyed your stay at the property otherwise. Keep well Property Owner

About the location

GLENCOE

Fort William 16 miles. Kinlochleven 7 miles.

The peaceful village of Glencoe sits at the western end of Loch Leven and boasts a scattering of houses as well as a small museum, shop and an Inn offering excellent food and refreshments. A popular centre for hill-walkers, climbers and holidaymakers alike, the surrounding area hosts a variety of activities, including many great walking opportunities and an abundance of wildlife not to be missed! Take a trip to the National Trust Visitor Centre to discover the story of the infamous Glencoe Massacre. Travel north across the Ballachulish Bridge towards Fort William and you will pass the Corran Ferry over to the unspoilt Ardnamurchan Peninsula. In Fort William you could take a gondola trip at Nevis Range or drive westwards to the Isles and visit Glenfinnan, where Bonnie Prince Charlie raised his standard to rally the clans. You will also find the Glenfinnan viaduct, memorably captured in the Harry Potter films. Alternatively you could follow the coastal route south towards Oban along the shores of Loch Linnhe to Kinlochlaich Gardens, Barcaldine Castle or the Scottish Sea Life Sanctuary, where rescued seals are nursed back to health before being returned to the wild. A fantastic location for all the family!
