Everything was perfect with our stay! We appreciated all the comforts, the cleanliness and your kindness. There’s really nothing we would change. Thank you for everything!

We followed your guide for advice for breakfast and dinner and loved the places we visited. Just one thing to say. We wanted to have breakfast at the rain cafe that was on the guide but it seems that it closed for good.

Would Recommend: Yes

28th August 2024:

The perfect location for Fort William and hiking. We absolutely loved staying here and would highly recommend this beautiful place to everyone. The breakfast treats were so lovely and were greatfully received after all the walking.

Sonas and the Indian restaurant next to it were the best two restaurants in town. Waterproofs are your best friend. Be prepared for all seasons in a day. Don’t forget your gloves if going up the Ben

We loved our room at the Willows! It was such a great landing place for us in our travels through Scotland. Very homey and comfortable, clean and tidy. The treats, teas and coffee were very generous and were enjoyed after a morning of hiking. The small touches such as the fridge, espresso, bathroom soaps, laundry and ear plugs made our stay feel extra deluxe. I would highly recommend the Willows to anyone traveling to Fort William and will stay again if we find ourselves in Scotland again. Many thanks, Olivia and Ryan from Milwaukee, USA

We stayed in the annex for 3 nights, it was spotlessly clean the comfiest bed we have found in our travels, accommodation was right opposite the loch and a short walk into fort William centre. The owners are very helpful and friendly, I would highly recommend anyone to stay at the willows.

Really well thought out space done to a high standard with everything you could hope to need. Good value for the area and far, far better than many of the other options.

Would Recommend: Yes

14th July 2024:

We had a lovely stay! The room was so comfortable and clean, and beautiful views of the lake. The location was great too, close enough to town but quiet and peaceful. Everything was perfect! :)

Only a 30 minute drive to the Signal Rock hike in Glencoe, which was so beautiful. And a 30 minute drive in the other direction to the Glenfinnan Viaduct, which was very crowded, but worth it to see the steam train and beautiful scenery. We only had two days, but we definitely want to come back and explore more.

Would Recommend: Yes

12th July 2024:

its a lovely and very comfortable place. The hosts are absolutely wonderful and very warm and make sure the guests feel welcome and have all the comforts.

Would Recommend: Yes

27th June 2024:

The Willows was a lovely place to stay. The view of Loch Linnie from our room was spectacular. We took the Citylink bus from Oban. There is a bus stop right across the street from The Willows, very convenient. Nic was a perfect host. She had recommendations for us of where to eat. Our planned activities were pretty well set, but she offered additional ideas. She also offered (for an extremely reasonable price) to do our laundry, so we were able to tour around as we had planned. The bus and train stations are within easy walking distance, although if you have significant luggage, a taxi would be a good idea. Instead of calling us a taxi on our last morning, she kindly offered to drive us to the bus station.

We took a Citylink bus to and from the castle at Eileen Donan. Traveling was very easy, and the castle was very interesting. We also took the Jacobite Express train to Maillaig. We recommend getting the Jacobite Cream Tea, Option A and a bottle of champagne. It's a trip worth celebrating!

Would Recommend: Yes

23rd June 2024:

Booked at very short notice through Tourist Information. Nic was very helpful and friendly at all times and it was clearly explained this was accommodation only with no formal breakfast.The annexe accommodation is of an excellent standard and couldn't be faulted. It has it's own parking space.

A 15 minute relaxed walk took us to and from the town centre which has a plethora of eating places. We opted for the Ben Nevis Inn on the main street which was excellent in terms of quality and choice of pub style food, a wide array of drinks both national and local and enhanced by a lively Friday night ambience. The reason for our visit was the Jacobite Railway experience which was fantastic and highly recommended.

Would Recommend: Yes

19th June 2024:

Great location, walking distance to the centre of town. Great selection of snacks provided for breakfast. Tea and Coffee making facilities very good. Provision of a small fridge in the room was really handy. Excellent bed and bedding made for a really comfortable stay.

10 minute walk to town centre with plenty of restaurants available. They were, however, very busy so don't leave it too late to get a table. Made use of the Jacobite Train journey to Mallaig, stunning scenery and well worth booking (when available)

Would Recommend: Yes

13th June 2024:

Everything about the room and our stay there was wonderful.

Would Recommend: Yes

11th June 2024:

Outstanding accommodation! One of the best rooms we’ve ever had on Booking.Com! There were so many thoughtful touches that made this a very special place to stay. The bed and pillows were so comfortable. The room and bathroom were sparkling clean, big white fluffy towels. Nic was a very welcoming and friendly host. I truly recommend this place to stay if you are visiting Fort William.

Would Recommend: Yes

7th June 2024:

Our room at The Willows exceeded our expectations. Everything was spotless, the bed was very comfortable, the room was spacious and well appointed. There was plenty of space for luggage and personal items. The toiletries were lovely. The breakfast snacks provided in the room were great. There were dishes and cutlery to use. I would highly recommend The Willows to everyone!

It is a bit of a walk into town, but it is doable. The hotel has a lovely view of the loch. There are a few restaurants within close walking distance.

Would Recommend: Yes

3rd June 2024:

Great service, friendly welcome on arrival. Everything you could think of when away on holidays had been provided. Bed linen was so soft and comfortable. Loved our stay

Easy walking distance to food eatery’s and shops

Would Recommend: Yes

3rd June 2024:

We stayed in the annex for a couple of nights and it was excellent. Really clean, large room with fridge, breakfast porridge etc left for us along with water and Cereal bars, basically brand new bathroom and parking right outside. Friendly owner a d good location with 10 minute walk alongside the loch into town.

We really enjoyed the evening cruise on loch Linnhe, walked along some of the great Glen way to Neptune's staircase. Lots of pubs in the town for a meal.

Would Recommend: Yes

30th May 2024:

We loved the Willows! Our only regret was that we didn't get to spend more time there. The Annex was so comfortable and Nic was a great ambassador for the Inn and the area. The spacious shower was wonderful after a day on the trails and so was the huge bed! We'll be back!

The Willows sends out a handy e-travel guide for the area that I found really handy. We wound up booking a tour from it and would have done more if we'd had the time.

Would Recommend: Yes

4th May 2024:

Superb accommodation, exactly what we wanted and wish we could have stayed longer.

Would Recommend: Yes

1st October 2023:

Short walk to pedestrian walking mall lined with stores of all sorts, museums and food options. Ample parking, with easy in/out from main road, the noise from which is not an issue inside rooms. The rooms themselves are well thought out, providing everything you might need, including a generous coffee/tea/light breakfast needs. Linens and towels all particularly nice. Hosts are easily accessed, very pleasant and helpful regarding large variety of possible questions, but leave you your privacy as desired.

Would Recommend: Yes

23rd September 2023:

Absolutely amazing place. A home away from home! So comfortable, room large with great bed and pillows. All the extras such as body lotion & toiletries, breakfast items, biscuits, lollies! Thank you Nic & Paul your home is beautiful. We had a wonderful stay!

Unfortunately for us the weather wasn't so great to get out but went to the museum which was fabulous. Inverlochy 🏰 lovely trip out.

Leave your car at the property and walk into fort William , it’s a nice stroll alongside the loch and you save on the car parking charges

Would Recommend: Yes

23rd August 2023:

The location is superb on the banks of the loch. Our room was very homely and with rain lashing outside it was great to have a smart TV and catch up on favourite shows! The breakfast items provided were more than adequate for us.

We did find that we had to queue for food in the evening even at pubs. We ate at the tavern which was great and service was quick so tables turned over fast. We went to the west highlands museum in town as the weather was so bad but actually found it much more interesting than I expected.

Would Recommend: Yes

23rd August 2023:

The best holiday stay accommodation we have stayed at so far.

The information book was comprehensive, and contained everything we needed to know about the accommodation (no meals included), and the town and its facilities (restaurants etc). The accommodation was very good quality and everything new condition and spotlessly clean.

Would Recommend: Yes

22nd August 2023:

Amazing stay! Bed was so comfortable, room was spacious, hosts were incredible and the little food items left in the room each day were wonderful. Thank you so much!

Jacobite Train Station is about a 15 minute walk from this guest house, so if you’re traveling on the Harry Potter Steam Train, it’s a great location. Lots of restaurants in town and beautiful scenery all around.

Would Recommend: Yes

20th August 2023:

We were only in for a one night stay but wouldn’t hesitate to stay longer if we ever needed to. The room was lovely with a great view of the loch from the front window (room 4). Exceedingly spacious, a good smart TV to kick back to and very comfortable bed. We only had a small interaction with the host on arrival but they were welcoming and offered advice if needed. Also kept my watch charger for me that I had left behind!

I’m not sure about the rest of the week but after arriving tired and taking a nap, beware that most restaurants etc close around 8.30pm on a Sunday!

Would Recommend: Yes

Would Recommend: Yes

16th June 2023:

Fantastic location across the road from the Loch and nice walk into city centre.Parking out the front which is always convenient.Room was large with king size bed which was just as comfortable as our bed at home. Great bathroom with large fluffy white towels and toiletries provided. Tea and coffee making facilities in room and snacks provided in place of breakfast.Large TV and seating area in room which was nice after a long day out. Host welcoming but allowed you to come and go as you pleased. Nothing negative to say.

The steam train of course but if you can’t afford this it’s worth driving out to Glen Finnan to view the viaduct and the train passing over. You actually get a better view of the viaduct from the ground.

Would Recommend: Yes

13th June 2023:

Lovely Place! Sorry for my clumsy English. Feels like coming home! Everything is new and Nic thought about everything. Brandnew bathroom with an excelent shower. Comfy bed and even a Nespresso-machine and a small fridge. Great view on the lake wit great sunset on the porch. Very nice hosts, we felt more than welcome. Absolutely great stay! Thank You very much - we will come back!

Walk to the City Center ist about 700 yards. But there is a central parking lot close to the center of the town as well. Good restaurants: The Geographer, Ben Nevis Restaurant. Glencoe / The Three Sisters in the afternoon. And of course for Harry Potter Fans: The Glenfinnan Viaduct (around 3:15 pm) :)

Would Recommend: Yes

12th June 2023:

We really enjoyed our stay - it was perfect for us and we liked the free to book option. The bedroom and bathroom were well equipped and we really appreciated the coffee, tea and breakfast snacks. We were hillwalking, so that helped us get going in the morning. We also loved the tables outside where we could sit and enjoy a cup of tea with a view. We weren't expecting to have new towels on the 2nd day, so maybe it's worth giving guests the option? Lots of hotels have a "towels on the floor" sign so guests can indicate if they want new towels(might save you some work?)

Fort William was busy, but we found a good fish and chip shop on our 2nd evening - Sammys in Caol, where we could eat our supper outside looking out across the loch and up to the Ben.

Would Recommend: Yes

10th June 2023:

Lovely sized room with all you would expect and more. We walked to the station for the Jacobite train and walked to some restaurants.

We ate at the Ben Nevis Inn, Crannog at Garrison West and the cinema cafe. All very different but all enjoyable.

Would Recommend: Yes

3rd June 2023:

The room is very spacious and clean. The bathroom is a 10 out of 10 for me along with the porridge and coffee supplied each morning. Large TV in the corner and plenty of space to spread out. Just loved it.

Within 10 mins walk of High Street and situated across the road from the Loch. It is quiet and easily accessable. The start of the walk up to Cow Hill is less than 5 min walk away. Plenty of restaurants and cafes within walking distance of The Willows.

Would Recommend: Yes

We stayed in the annexe and it was everything you could hope for. Well equipped for a room only, having said that there were lots of goodies you could have for breakfast if you wished. Spotlessly clean with lovely crisp white bedding and the most comfortable super king bed I have slept in, including my own. It was very reasonable too, facing the loch with many local eateries. Have no hesitation in recommending this lovely place.

16th September 2022:

Lovely location on the Loch shore. Spotlessly clean and well equipped room. Very friendly welcome. Would definitely recommend it.

The Tavern was very nice - recommend the steak pie. We were cycling the Caledonian Way and would recommend getting the ferry across to Camusnagual and cycling to Corran. Gorgeous scenery and very quiet road.

Would Recommend: Yes

5th September 2022:

Exceeded expectations. Breakfast provided was more than sufficient. Rooms being "made up" every day was unexpected since many hotels these days (such as Premier Inn) only do this upon request. Location ideal with view across the loch while being a comfortable walk from town. More than ample off-street parking.

If you cannot get tickets for the Jacobite then still worth doing the trip to Mallaig by Scotrail. The views are the same and it'll be cheaper. Enjoyed a nice couple of beers at The Tavern in town.

A very good location as it is situated opposite Loch Linnhe. The room is spotless, the towels are changed everyday. The bed is very comfortable. The guest house is very convenient as it is a walking distance to the high street, morissons, bus and train station.

An hour walk to the Great Glen path, it is refreshing to walk through field with a flock sheep (first time I’ve seen a black sheep), we caught a glimpse of an otter by the river and seeing the Nevis range from a distance. The Highland Museum is worth visiting as they have a good collection of memorabilia.

We loved our stay at The Willows! Nic & Paul were there any time we needed them, and they’re always willing to help. The room was immaculately clean and spacious. They serviced the room everyday which was very nice. They aren’t doing breakfast services at the moment, but we had great coffee and snacks in the room. Location was great for Jacobite train as well as a stop near Glencoe. We would recommend a stay there to anyone, we really enjoyed it.

Absolutely loved dinner at Crannog. The food was exceptional; best food on our trip around Scotland. They do require reservations and are currently closed Mon & Tue.

Would Recommend: Yes

27th September 2021:

Welcoming and comfortable. We felt very well taken care of, and the room was excellent - very well put together down to details like USB ports, range of teas aside from English Breakfast, very useful guide on good places to eat etc. We had a lovely stay.

Eating and drinking: Black Isle Bar (great pizza and craft beer), Grog & Gruel (very friendly). Walking: Cow Hill trail, Glen Nevis walk to Steal Falls (loved this - great for a bit of rock scrambling but not too challenging in terms of elevation). The Jacobite steam train to Mallaig was fantastic; great fish & chips from the chippy at Mallaig station.

Would Recommend: Yes

25th September 2021:

Most of the accommodation in Fort William fronts onto the A82, which is a fairly busy road. We had the annex room in The Willows, which is a very nice self-contained and private unit, and the windows face to the side, so the road noise was less intrusive than for many. We had a big and very convenient parking space. The walk into town is straightforward and flat. It was a good-sized room with a very large double bed, space to sit and an ensuite bathroom. Everything seemed very clean. Because of Covid, breakfast wasn't provided although there was a small selection of foods left for us. But, most usefully, there was a small microwave and fridge in the room together with crockery and cutlery, which meant that we could sort out our own food easily - this was a big plus.

Would Recommend: Yes

20th September 2021:

By far the nicest B&B I have ever stayed in. It was impeccably clean and beautiful. I would recommend it to anybody even the Queen herself. It made our stay extra special. The views are amazing, and it's just a 5 minute walk from all the pubs.

If you're staying to climb Ben Nevis, be mindful that not all rooms have got a bathtub. Ours didn't have one, and it would have been nice to relax our muscles after the climb, but the walk in shower was a nice way to freshen up.

Great location looking over the loch. It is a nice 10 min walk from the centre. Our annex/room was perfect for our 2 night stay to walk Ben Nevis. Due to a lot of places not being able to cater for food due to shortage of staff we were able to buy food and make use of the microwave and fridge in the room. Most importantly for me the room was spotless!! Would definitely return.

We had a lovely stay at The Willows.The room was immaculate as was the shower room.Nice and spacious with super comfy beds.Great wee extras as well ie toiletries,hot chocolate and yummy pastries our son is now a convert.To boot it was ideally located for a walk into to town to the shops and for dinner.As well as being sited on the banks of beautiful Loch Linnhe what’s not to love.Will definitely recommend to friends and family.Xx

We never had a bad dining experience in Fort William loads of places and budgets to suit.So whether you want to climb the incredible Ben Nevis.Go monster hunting for Nessie or Morag.Visit Fort Augustus or Neptune’s staircase and watch the boats and yachts or go on The Jacobite (Harry Potters)steam train.Venture to Duirnish and see the highland coos that seem to own the place on the way to beautiful Plockton to name but a few of the fabulous things to do while you visit.Xx

Very friendly & helpful. Room was cleaned daily with fresh towels & the annex was very well equipped with a good powered shower & comfortable bed.

Bring midgie repellent. We had lovely meals at the China Palace & The Tavern. We planned a walk up Neptune's Staircase but ended up going up the canal, which was a lovely walk. Harry Potter fans can see the Hogwarts express in Fort William & you can stop at Glenfinnan Viaduct & watch it cross over if you time it right, or watch it pull into Mallaig. The white sands of Morar are a must see, the water is so clear

We stayed for 4 nights in the garden annexe. Beautiful layout, comfortable bed and en-suite shower room. Lovely comfortable room with TV, fridge and microwave. Lovely hosts, due to covid it was room only but the host provided Porridge, croissants, biscuits and snacks. there was a dolce gusto coffee machine as well as a kettle. Definitely worth a visit. Thanks for your hospitality

About a 10 minute walk into Fort Willaim. We took a day trip on the Jacobite Express (Hogwarts Express from Harry Potter) which was amazing. Crannock cruises is also worth a look, an hour and a half cruise to seal island. First pub in town is Weatherspoons, great for breakfast. Many other bars in town too.
