Lying in the shadow of Ben Nevis, Fort William is the capital of Lochaber and one of the major resorts of the Highlands. 'Fort Bill' lies at the heart of Lochaber and is the area's natural capital. In addition, the town commands an important position - being easily accessible from Glasgow and the central belt, and in turn providing good access to the Highland and Islands. Indeed, the town's importance - both to local people and the visitor - is underlined by the wide range of accommodation, shops, restaurants, essential services and recreational facilities.

The local museum gives a superb insight to all there is to see in Lochaber.
Lochaber was given “Geoprk” status in 2004 making it a fascinating destination for anyone interested in Geology. Inverness, Oban and Mallaig are all only a hour or less away making this the ideal central point to enjoy trips to Mull, Iona, Skye and the small Isles.
Come, relax and enjoy our hospitality in one of the most outstanding areas of natural beauty in the Scottish Highlands.
