Guests say

Camisky Steading is a spacious property with stunning views, comfortable beds, and a well-equipped kitchen. It offers a peaceful and relaxing holiday experience in a remote yet accessible location near Fort William. Guests appreciate the property's tranquility, the surrounding natural beauty, and the convenience of modern amenities like 4G & WiFi.

The property generally receives positive remarks for cleanliness, but some guests noted issues such as dust, cobwebs, and evidence of mice. These concerns were not universal, suggesting that cleanliness levels may vary.

The location is highly praised for its stunning views of Ben Nevis and the peaceful rural setting. It is also appreciated for being close to Fort William, offering a perfect balance between seclusion and accessibility.

Guests find the property very comfortable, particularly highlighting the large beds and quality linen. The warm and welcoming atmosphere contributes to the overall comfort, despite some minor maintenance issues.

The property is well-equipped, especially the kitchen, but there are several mentions of maintenance issues such as a broken toilet seat and a problematic shower. The presence of a fishing office on the grounds is not well-explained, affecting some guests' experiences.

While guests have mentioned a Christmas tree and decorations during the festive season, there is insufficient information on consistent thoughtful gestures such as welcome packs or gifts to accurately score this category.

About this property

Fort William 5.5 miles. Resting north of the bustling town of Fort William, with breath-taking views of the iconic mountain peak, Ben Nevis, is this stone-built semi detached dwelling, Camisky Steading. Set within a rural location and surrounded by the glorious mountain range and the majestic River Lochy, this dwelling is perfect for a relaxing getaway for a family holiday to Scotland. After an action-packed afternoon, be welcomed in by the contemporary styling and everything you could possibly need during a week-long break. Step into the spacious kitchen/diner, where the designated chef of the group will find everything you could possibly need to whip up hearty evening meals before the rest of the group gather at the dining table to plan the next day’s adventure. Completing the ground floor is a dry room, where you are welcomed to store your muddy walking boots and rain coats after a day exploring the surrounding countryside. Venture up the staircase and relax into your evening within the sitting room, where you can curl up on the sofa which rests in front of a roaring woodburning stove. Alternatively, dip into the bathtub and enjoy a soak whilst taking in the superb views of Ben Nevis with a deserved glass of wine in-hand. As the evening draws to a close, retire to one of the well-presented bedrooms, each boasting a bright and airy colour palette, spectacular views and ample storage to store all of your holiday essentials. Choose between two super king-size bedrooms and a twin bedroom, each offering zip/link beds to ensure a flexible sleeping arrangement to suit your group. If you can tear yourself away from this tranquil setting, venture to the bustling town Fort William, where you will find a selection of pubs serving Scotch whisky, delicious dining options and a number of shops for picking up the essentials. Within the surrounding area you will find opportunities for fishing within the nearby river, excellent mountain biking and even an opportunity to ride on the steam train which was used in the Harry Potter films. Alternatively, choose to walk up Ben Nevis, where you will be rewarded by panoramic views of the surrounding lochs and mountains. Camisky Steading is a refreshing base to come back to each evening after exploring the surrounding countryside.

Cups stained and required washing before use. No cleaning materials available, had to buy them Breadcrumbs on work surface under the toaster. Evidence of active infestation of mice.

  • Aisha

    It’s in a beautiful secluded spot, but not too far (by car) to Fort William. The beds are super comfy and the kitchen has everything you could need for cooking at home.

  • Sarah

    It was extremely well equipped, beautiful location, easy to get to places from here and would highly recommend. The photos of the rooms do not do it justice, very nice indeed!
