    The view is what sells this place. Its along the river with mountains. Very quiet. Hosts were very helpful and friendly. Apartment is small but okay for a couple. Has cooking facilities. TV. Hosts provide a breakfast hamper which is nice. Its about a 20 minute walk into town. A bus stop is at the bottom of the drive.

    We met Andy on arrival who showed us the apartment and Guest Information folder which had loads of great suggestions of a variety of things to do and places to visit. We met Carol later. They are both really friendly and informative. The apartment is really well equipped, clean and comfortable. The views are stunning, we saw deer and porpoises from the windows. We will definitely be back in Fort William as there is still so much to do and we wouldn't stay anywhere else.
