Cottage stays with private beach on Loch Linnhe
Amenities & Facilities
The property grants access to a private beach area, with a small gate and steps leading down to the shore of Loch Linnhe. Barbecue facilities and a picnic area with outdoor furniture are available for guest use, and free parking is provided on-site. Bicycle rental is offered, and a grocery delivery service saves trips to the local Co-op, a 5-minute drive away.
Accommodation
Each cottage (named after Scottish islands such as Kerrera, Shuna, Colonsay, Lismore, and Oronsay) includes a fully equipped kitchen with an oven, microwave, toaster, refrigerator, and kettle. The living areas have flat-screen TVs, and some units provide a DVD player; all feature a dining area and a seating area. Bed linen is supplied, and upon arrival guests find fresh milk and shortbread.
Location & Surroundings
Old Springwell Croft sits 16 km from Ben Nevis and 14 km from the West Highland Museum, placing it between Fort William and Glencoe. The nearest restaurants are a 20-minute drive away in Fort William, but the Onich Hotel is a 5-minute walk and serves food with loch views. Access to the property requires driving up a steep hill, and the private beach is reached by crossing a 50mph road.
Outdoor & Beach
The private beach, accessed via a near-hidden gate and steps, offers swimming and fishing opportunities directly on Loch Linnhe. A hillside path behind the cottages provides walks with panoramic views of the loch and mountains. The garden is enclosed and safe for dogs, with a picnic table set out to enjoy the scenery.
Pets & Family
Dogs are welcome at the property, with a surcharge applied after booking; the enclosed garden and nearby forest walks suit pet stays. The cottages are equipped for families, offering twin bedrooms and a high chair available from the host. The gentle beach slope allows children to play safely after day trips to Glencoe and Ben Nevis.
