Stepps Cottage was absolutely amazing. The house had everything you could need for a luxury stay. We particularly enjoyed the hot tub overlooking Ben Nevis, absolutely fantastic. The views were stunning and we enjoyed seeing Daisy the Highland cow! Fabulous location with lots of great things to do nearby. Many thanks to our very helpful and friendly hosts Gregor and Nicola thank you for the most wonderful holiday 😁

Great location, easy access to Fort William, either walking, bus or train.A very well thought out holiday home, spacious, clean and everything you need in the kitchen is there, we make our own dough for pizza and often find we have no rolling pin and scales but not here! We had everything we needed.The hot tub was used multiple times a day and was spotlessly clean. Our dogs loved the garden and it was hard work to get them in for bed!Seeing the Jacobite train 4 times a day was just the icing on the cake. We 100% recommend Stepps Cottage.
