Three and a half hours northwest of Edinburgh, this intimate and relaxing hotel gazes out over Loch Linnhe and the Morven mountains. The 11 snug lodgings lack A/C but have been recently redecorated with designer fabrics and wallpapers, comfortable furnishings and modern baths with marble countertops. Request a loch-view room or the family-friendly Loch View Suite comprising a sitting alcove and a separate lounge area with a sofa bed. Public areas include two intimate lounges with deep sofas, log fires and period antiques; a conservatory for afternoon tea; and a whisky bar with American walnut paneling. A fine restaurant offers a seafood-focused menu with a notable wine list. Many enticing walks, sailing, horseback riding, fishing and golfing excursions are offered, as are whisky tastings and picnic lunches for visiting the serene Isle of Lismore.
For families with children, trips to a seal sanctuary, day trips to Mull by ferry and rides from Fort William to the fishing village of Mallaigon on a steam train are available.
