The Jacobite Retreat

Impressive uninterrupted mountain vistas of Ben Nevis, Aonach Mòr, Stob Bàn, Sgùrr a' Mhàim and the locally known “Melantee” steal the show in the master bedroom. There is a full-length mirror in the closet which has a clothes rail, ample hangers, spare pillows, quilted throw for colder nights and hairdryer. The second bedroom has two comfy single beds and all bed linen is provided. There is also a dedicated office space with desk, chair and USB/plug access.

Guests can choose between relaxing in the bathtub or using the walk-in shower. Hand-wash, towels and bath mat are provided.

Prepare meals overlooking Ben Nevis in the large fully-equipped kitchen and cook up a storm with inspiration from a selection of recipe books. A walk-in cupboard stores two director's chairs, outdoor cushions, hoover and laundry/cleaning equipment.

Flooded with natural light from patio doors leading to the garden, the living room is a bright and vibrant space enhanced by soft furnishings. The two settees, large footstool and giant floor cushion ensure everyone has a comfy seat to admire the rugged mountain views.

Gather round the table which accommodates up to six people. Also in this cosy space is a reading nook furnished with an Alstons accent chair and swing arm lamp. The complete Harry Potter series sits on the alcove shelving alongside cookbooks. Set the mood with your choice of music by linking up to the Sonos speaker.

The front, side and rear gardens are fully enclosed. A picnic bench area is next to the large shed which houses additional outdoor furniture and is available to guests for storage of bikes etc. There is also a patio, outside tap and hose. Security cameras are to the front and rear of the property.

Maximum occupancy (day/night) is 4 guests. No unauthorised guests are permitted on the property.
