About this property

  • Discover the gorgeous landscape that surrounds this shepherd’s hut. Stunning views across Loch Eil and the hills beyond. Situated by the west highland line with the Jacobite steam train passing daily.

    The Carriage is located on the outskirts of Fort William and commands striking views of Loch Eil and the surrounding mountains. This is the ideal base for a couple looking for a rural retreat. This Shepherds Hut boasts a traditional look and feel with a modern high spec finish on the inside. Climb the wooden steps and you are welcomed into a modern open plan living space. You enter to the kitchen which is fully equipped for self catering. The living space has a sofa and a smart TV for your entertainment. Beyond the comfortable double bed there is a modern and spacious shower room.

    Outside you can enjoy the patio area with a drink or some food while you enjoy the stunning Loch and Mountain views. Maybe even get a great shot of the passing Jacobite Express steam train.

Mega netter Aufenthalt!

Die Hosts waren super freundlich und offen. Sowohl Check-In als auch Check-Out haben super geklappt. Die Küche war sehr gut ausgestattet mit Herd, Mikrowelle und einem Air-Fryer. In der Unterkunft hat man außerdem einen super Blick auf die Bahngleise, auf denen der berühmte Jacobite Steam Train entlangfährt für alle Interessierten.
