Low score for Fort William

This property is 2 minutes walk from the beach. Situated in picturesque Fort William, The Lime Tree An Ealdhain offers spacious accommodation in the Highlands of Scotland. It has its own art gallery, and an award-winning contemporary restaurant. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property.

The hotel is 25 minutes’ drive from Glenfinnan, which was featured in the Harry Potter movies for its spectacular scenery and traditional steam trains.

Guests at The Lime Tree can relax in front of an open log fire, and enjoy views of Loch Linnhe and the surrounding hills and mountains.

Food is cooked in an open kitchen, where guests can see their meal being prepared. The menu changes seasonally, and is made with fresh local ingredients.

Fort William Rail Station is a 5-minute drive from the hotel. Ben Nevis can be reached in just over 20 minutes’ drive, and there is a world championship mountain bike track at Nevis Range.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.2 for a two-person trip.
