Spacious well equipped house in a quiet area next to a small stream. WiFi was good, Tv with Netflix etc. Really enjoyed the sauna. Very friendly owners who live next door if there any questions.Perfect if you want to spend time in Fort William area (beautiful for walking and outdoor activities) and don't want to be in Fort William itself (about 10 mins in the car)
