Balcarres

Quality Bed and Breakfast plus Self-Catering option located in
Fort William in the Scottish Highlands

A Warm Welcome 

Fort William, standing at the foot of Ben Nevis, is an ideal base for your holiday when touring the magnificent West Highlands of Scotland. It is within easy reach of Oban, The Road to the Isles, Mallaig, Skye, and the Ardnamurchan Peninsula, not forgetting Inverness and the intriguing Loch Ness.

From its elevated position in a quiet cul de sac, Balcarres commands spectacular views over Loch Linnhe and beyond to the Ardgour Hills.

Owned and run by Andy and Carole, Balcarres provides the option of bed and breakfast, or offers two apartments for couples or solo travellers looking for self-catering accommodation close to Fort William. With private free parking for guests only, residents can leave their car and take the 15 minute stroll alongside Loch Linnhe into Fort William town centre.

Ben Nevis is a short drive away, and a trip to Aonach Mor gives you the opportunity to take a gondola ride to catch breath-taking views of the surrounding area; or for walkers, Glen Nevis is a must with the awe inspiring Steall Falls with its wire rope bridge for the more adventurous.

We welcome well-behaved pets by prior arrangement at Balcarres and there is no charge – just be sure to mention and check with us before booking.

We also have free Wi-Fi access for our guests.
