A friendly welcome on arrival. Hotel located across the road from a beautiful loch with a small pebble beach - good for a stroll, otherwise a walk is a few minutes drive away. Charming decoration in bedrooms, very comfortable bed, lovely hot water & good shower. Dinner in the hotel was delicious. We really enjoyed our short stay.

Loved the view and the proximity to the Great Glen Way path. The toilet and shower are really close by, as is the pub boat and little coffee shop at the locks.

The location is just beautiful. The cabins were right across Loch Lochy. We sat and looked at the loch all day thru our window/ balcony. We booked a cottage and it was just perfect. Since we had a dog, there was a goodie bag for the dog in the cottage with treats, a ball and some poop bags. This was a great touch to the stay. Breakfast was really good. There were lots of board games available at the cottage. We ordered food from the restaurant and they delivered at the cottage. The presence of a spa at the property is also a brilliant addition. Overall, if you are staying here, you don't have to go anywhere else during your stay and can just relax at the property itself.

Found the pot holes quite unbelievable. It’s a country wide problem I know, but I’ve never seen so many dangerous pot holes on the roads. Sadly we got Quite a big bill for the one we went over.

The views are simply stunning and beautiful.
The views are simply stunning and beautiful.
Our room overlooked the loch simply stunning 😊
Would be nice to have had the property lit up for night travellers new to the area and location.
Also would be lovely to meet the carers of the lodge too so face to face communication is readily avaliable for the lodge users.
If staying with family be aware of noise from other people around the house as it can feel loud due to the lodge being small.
Apart from that free parking and beautiful location of rural Scotland 😊

Great location, very friendly staff, clean and comfortable...
Great location, very friendly staff, clean and comfortable hotel.
There s a cosy well stocked bar, a restaurant overlooking the loch and excellent service.
The food is good with an Indian style although local dishes and produce are also well featured. The buffet breakfast is very good and will set you up for the day. The Hotel also offers guests without their own transport a drop off and collect service in the local area allowing one way walks to be planned.
Self contained apartments are also available on site as is a Spa treatment service which my wife thoroughly recommends.
This is one of three in the chain of Black Sheep hotels in the Highlands.

The whole experience at this hotel was great.
The whole experience at this hotel was great. The staff were all so helpful and polite. The room looking out over the loch was a delight and the whole ambience around the hotel was Uplifting- well done Whispering Pines.

Re - Osprey Suite, Letterfinlay House Lodge.
Arrival -
Re - Osprey Suite, Letterfinlay House Lodge.
Arrival -
On arrival we found the accommodation to be filthy and not Covid prepared. See pics of kitchen and sitting room. The deck furniture was rusty and not fit for use. The deck table had smear of sticky clear liquid on its surface. We were informed that complimentary wine was available for us - no complimentary wine was available for us.
The accommodation claims “Extra health & safety measures” re Coronavirus. This is not apparent and doesn’t exist.
Communication -
We called the owner to make complaint re above within the hour of arrival. I informed him of the shocking presentation. His manner was initially defensive and then, very quickly, aggressive and unpleasant. He put the phone down on me, made no further offer of explanation or support and left my partner completely traumatised. We immediately left the property after the call.
Verdict -
Utterly appalling presentation of holiday accommodation and customer service - especially with prevalence of Covid and expected standards of hygiene. The owner has refused to reimburse our holiday fee - £470. We are liaising with booking.com and external tourism related advisors to recover our costs with added compensation for additional expenses and trauma that we incurred.

This is a great base for exploring the surrounding area...
This is a great base for exploring the surrounding area either by foot or car with Fort William about 10 miles to the South. That is if you can draw yourself away from the hotel's relaxing atmosphere and stunning views!
Booked this last minute and surprised there was a vacancy for 1 night. We had the smaller room with no view of the loch but it was spacious, clean and more facilities than we expected...tea, coffee etc but also breakfast bars and porridge pots and a fridge. The owner was very helpful when I phoned to make a table reservation not knowing the hotel next door is not connected to the lodge. He gave me their contact details and explained how to access the lodge. We had a lovely meal in whispering pines next door.
Great terrace overlooking Loch Lochy, stunning views from the bed and room.
WiFi worked without issues, facilities were clean and well up kept.
We had porridge pots and cereal bars daily topped up giving us a small breakfast to start the day.
Close to Fort Williams and supermarkets and restaurants.
Great to use as a base to explore Inverness, Loch Ness, cairngorms and the nevis range.
Has good parking just in front of room.
If you want a 5 * luxury spa with bistro menu then this is not the place for you
If you want to be treated like a guest and not a room number by people who care , in fabulous surroundings then stay here.
These places are rare to find, where time has paused and quality has been maintained.
The food is outstanding and service exceptional.
Your own loch access and plenty to do in the area.
No wonder guests return
The Letterfinlay House is located in an amazing spot right on the lake! We loved the location! We actually wish that we could have stayed longer! The house was clean and we had the pleasure of meeting the hosts the day we checked out. They were very kind and informative about nearby attractions. We highly recommend this location for lodging while in Ft Williams!
This is an amazing hotel! The location is beautiful, with access to the pebbled beach. The building has that cosy lodge feel to it, specially when it's cold outside. And the room was very spacious and perfectly clean, with a big comfy bed. Although it was located by the stairs,
couldn't hear a thing and had a great night's sleep. I would definitely stay here again.

Letterfinlay Lodge is exceptional!! AMAZING location, beautiful view, and spacious. We've been in 5 other hotels during our vacation and this is hands down THE BEST!! If you can get the Osprey Suite... heavenly!!! Smaxi was super helpful. Just a wonderful experience that we would do again BUT stay longer next time!!
Our dinner had to be one of the best meals we have ever eaten. The family that run the hotel are lovely. Knowledgeable, and professional with an obvious love for their home and business. The views from dining room are beautiful.
The room although not large was
very clean and the bed comfortable.
Location good, but as on the map it requires car (or canoe). Nice friendly ambience and all was clean and tidy. Evening meal menu provided pleasant surprise with mix of Indian and international cuisine - the Indian dishes were good and authentic - thumbs up for the Chef.
What an amazing hotel. We booked it last minute and because the price was so reasonable we didn’t expect it to be so good. Staff were lovely as was the room and the breakfast. The location was beautiful. Even had its own private beach. Will definitely return.
It was just a wonderful experience all the way through. The family feeling, the good food, the views from the hotel, the small private beach where we took a dip, the location....it was a one off experience!
Nice hotel with exceptional views of the loch. Room was small but enough for one night we stayed. Bed was comfortable and self serve breakfast options of porridge and cereal bars in room.
Views from the dining room were fabulous and access to a private beach was a bonus. The hotel was in a good location for exploring the Great Glen/Ben Nevis area.
