The lodge is very nicely furnished, comfortable, spotlessly clean and very well equipped. A great location for glen walking, mountain walking or kayaking. Just a few miles from Fort William for shopping, boat trips and eating out. We had a wonderful holiday enjoying the peace and tranquility at the lodge, watching blue tits, chaffinches, robins, dunnocks and great tits at the bird feeder. We also saw ducks on the river and two deer from the lodge veranda. We kayaked on Loch Lochy, Loch Oich, Loch Eilt, walked part of the Great Glen Way. We also booked a day sea kayaking from Arisaig with Rockhopper Sea Kayaking, an amazing day. We also did the Loch Linnhe 2 hour seal boat trip. Lynore the owner was really lovely too and we would recommend Burnside Lodge as an absolutely perfect place to stay.

For the time of year, it’s reasonable and there was a view of Ben Nevis. So very happy with stay and would like to return. Only need to sort out midges.

Burnside Lodge is absolutely amazing 👏 We couldn't have asked for anything better. We were very welcomed by the owners, they had left chocolates, wine and a bottle of milk for our arrival.The Lodge was exceptionally clean and very comfortable, it had everything we needed and more. The setting was awesome, next to the river, trees and a beautiful view of Ben Nevis. My score is 10/10 worth every penny.
