Ben Nevis
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Wonderful experience, but be aware, it is not easy. We climbed for 4 hours and felt exhausted. However, the most difficult part was just about to start. The pain was excruciating while coming down. Worse than when going up. The pressure on the knees makes it very painful. Not for the faint hearted....

👍👍 Today we were at the Glen Rowan Cafe for breakfast in the morning. Unfortunately we were a bit late, but the cook of the house was so kind to serve us an excellent breakfast despite the closed kitchen. The coffee and the cake were also excellent. The staff is really friendly and also seek contact...

👍👍 Absolutely stunning beach. Golden sand beach and crystal clear waters. We even got to see a seal. Paths to walk on the rocks around the beach. Can walk easily from campsite. Nice and secluded location. Single track road doesn’t make it the easiest to get to though.

Bealach na Ba Viewpoint
Tourist attraction
👍👍 NC500 part. One of the better driveable routes in west Scotland. Fair height by car, challenging road network and ultimately a beautiful view. Once at the top you can lose hours walking around from beautiful spot to beautiful spot. Limited parking. Can be dangerous. Not suitable for large campers, e...

👍👍 Amazing homemade food, coffee, cakes and more! The sofas are comfortable and an amazing atmosphere to just sit, rest and have a cuppa. Hosts are friendly and welcoming.

👍👍 Stopped by whilst on our Honeymoon. We were very well looked after by the staff, they made sure everything was perfect and were very lovely and chatty. Even though it was very busy and the place pretty much filled up about 5 mins after we sat down (we were the first ones in) we never felt rushed for...

Enjoyed the breathtaking scenery when walking by the river from the car park which is available on a fee. Actually we have seen another taller and larger bridge couple of days after this trip on our w...

Holiday park
👍👍 This was one of our last stops after touring the NC500 in a camper. We were doing the Jacobite train and this looked like a perfect base. It definitely was. A lovely big site but rather then cramming everyone in they leave so much open space. The toilet/shower facilities are clean and modern. On-sit...
